GUNS N' ROSES frontman Axl Rose has issued the following statement in regards to the goings-on surrounding the band's Reading And Leeds Festival performances this past weekend:
"Don't know what it is with us or these last 2 shows. Takes the fun out it 4 everyone - fans, band n' crew alike, but whatever.So u know, we allegedly had a deal in place pre-show with the city at, least at Leeds, to do a bit longer performance that was either miscommunication, someone wasn't informed, changed their mind, didn't care or was a con.
Regardless, the nonsense just seems so unnecessary but without real management or industry presence is unfortunately beyond r control. We hope the fans feel they got at least what they could from us under the circumstances as 4 us all things considered that's the main thing. The rest is filler.
Anyway, enough rambling. Peace, thanks 4 understanding n' what we did manage to get done out there was a blast! The crowds n' fans were amazing!! And in r opinion (not that apparently it means much) u deserved better!! Thanks again!!"
