Posted by Chris Harris on August 31, 2010 in Huh?, News



Not sure how reliable anything from English rag The Daily Star could be, but the daily’s claiming Guns N’ Roses frontman Axl Rose fired his entire road crew when they didn’t wake him up for his Reading and Leeds Festivals sets.

I must admit — for the most part, this blog is a compilation of whatever comes to mind when I first see, hear, or read something. If I’m apathetic about some lame-ass band going out on tour with an even lamer-assed band, I just get to the goods as quickly as I can. In the Read More
