And Finally
Axl let everyone down, says Sixx
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 21 August 2009
Motley Crue frontman Nikki Sixx has said that Axl Rose let his fans down with Guns N Roses’ recent album, ‘Chinese Democracy’, which is why said fans, in Sixx’s view, have deserted him.
Sixx told The Sun: “For it to fail was pretty crazy after so many years of being recorded. Then the tour got cancelled. A buddy of mine went to go play guitar for him. They rehearsed for three months and Axl never once turned up. Rule number one: show up! He’s been doing that for many years. Finally I think the fans just went, ‘Fuck it – can’t do this anymore’. You can’t be a fan when you can’t see the band. I heard one track and then it just disappeared off the radio. It was never talked about again”.
