Axl Rose Posts Statement About Reading and Leeds Controversy (Top Story)

09/06/2010
.
Axl Rose Posts Statement About Reading and Leeds Controversy was a top 10 story this week . Here is the recap: Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose continues his war with the organizers of the Reading and Leeds festivals after both of his sets were cut short this past weekend after the band arrived late on stage. Rose posted a long statement on Twitlonger with his side of the dispute:

Whatever other nonsense anyone's choosing to write would appear intentionally false. Having the fans or our show penalized for how the event was ran or simply the natural flow of events those evenings and for such minimal amount of overtime along with distortions and falsehoods by media, the promoter and or event organizers regarding the events seems a bit draconian and more than unfair to the fans.

A simple question: If you are aware of our changeover time, the average length of our show and the general nature of how these types of festivals run, all of which are no big secrets... why book us? Is it simply because the lineup on our nights at both festivals sold well? So it's a cash grab with no respect for the fans or the band and somehow an unwanted inconvenience for the cities and law enforcement? - more on this story
