Axl Rose Finally Realises Throwing Solid Objects At The Audience Is A Bad Idea

Guns N’ Roses singer Axl Rose has finally decided throwing solid objects at the audience is a stupid idea.

Rose threw his microphone into the audience of his Adelaide concert in Australia this week and smashed audience member Rebecca Howe in the face (allegedly).

The mic smashed into the face of an audience member who was taken aside by police who attempted to stop the bleeding.

Rose issued a non-apology full of lawyer-speak for his behaviour. Basically, it was the fans fault for not realising that mic throwing has been a part of the act for 30 years.

“It’s come to my attention that a fan may have been hurt at r show in Adelaide Australia possibly being hit by the microphone at the end of the show when I traditionally toss the mic to the fans,” Rose posted to his socials. “If true obviously we don’t want anyone getting hurt or to somehow in anyway hurt anyone at any of r shows anywhere.

“Having tossed the mic at the end of r show for over 30 years we always felt it was a known part of the very end of r performance that fans wanted and were aware of to have an opportunity to catch the mic. Regardless in the interest of public safety from now on we’ll refrain from tossing the mic or anything to the fans during or at r performances.

“Unfortunately there r those that for their own reasons chose to frame their reporting regarding this subject in a more negative n’ irresponsible out of nowhere light which couldn’t b farther from reality. We hope the public and of course r fans get that sometimes happens.

“A BIG THANKS to everyone for understanding.”

Guns N’ Roses have no more shows in Australia.
