O to co powiedzial Axl podczas rozmowy z fanem na temat zakazu wnoszenia koszulek ze Slashem na koncert (źródło w 99,9999999999999999999% wiarygodne):
“See, with the show we have now, there is pretty much nothing negative left to say, so people have to start making shit up instead! Like that thing about people not being allowed entrance to the show if they’re wearing some Slash outfits and stuff… and those fake sources and everything, I just read about it yesterday and I’m like “where does this come from?” …. I’ll tell you where it’s from, Rock in Rio 2001, that’s where it’s from! Because this guy I threw out happened to be wearing a Slash shirt! But he was going like “fuck you Axl” --*Axl impersonates the retard (by the looks of it) giving him the finger*-- so I was just “get this guy out of here!” and for whatever the reason, can’t recall, I asked them to hand me his shirt… and that’s why people are making up this shit today!”
