Would you pay $1,000 to see Guns N' Roses?

I have no idea who’s in “Guns N’ Roses” (quotation marks placed on purpose) nowadays and I can’t be assed to search for a recent picture of the current line-up so you have to deal with a picture of the old, old, old line-up.

Now, that that’s out of the way, we can go on with the news. According to Blabbermouth, Guns N’ Roses recently received $1 Million (that’s 1,000,000 freaking Dollars) to play a private show in Moscow, Russia. To attend the concert, each invited guest had to pay about $1,000.

Sounds fair, right? A bunch of people who had nothing to do with the success of this “band” (Yes, quotation marks placed on purpose again) covering their songs for a bunch of Russians who have too much money on their hands. Uh huh. And I’m still writing this for free. Life’s definitely fair.

Shitty cellphone video after the jump (You’d think someone who has enough money to spend $1,000 on a concert ticket could afford a decent camera but remember, this is still Russia).

Duff-Man talks

No, not the beer mascot superhero from the Simpsons, the dude that played bass for Guns N’ Roses around the time the Simpsons just started out (a few decades ago), Duff McKagan. He answered a few questions regarding his recent performance with his old buddy Axl and the new Guns N’ Roses. We won’t post it here, because we’ve already wasted quite a few kilobytes on this band, and we’re going green. Read it here.

Mugshot mystery

Who is this kid?

Let me help you out: He’s named after a flower, he used to be in a popular rock band ages ago, and lately he’s been most recognized by his dreadlocks. He happens to play in some tribute band, but no one really cares about that. Make the jump and find out.

Guns N' Emirates

If you live in the United Arab Emirates and you love Guns N’ Roses, tough luck. They’re not coming.

However, a band fronted by Axl Rose with a bunch of hired musicians are coming to the U.A.E., and although they share the same name with the band we all know and love, nothing else is similar. But hey, beats staying home and playing online poker naked, doesn’t it?

“Guns N’ Roses will play on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, capital of the United Arab Emirates, later this year. The concert is being organized by Flash Entertainment as part of a slew of events around the Etihad Airways Formula 1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. They will perform on December 16. Ticket prices will begin at Dh150 (around $41).“

When asked where he buys his extensions, Axl Rose had no comment.
