And Finally Beef Of The Week

CMU Beef Of The Week #06: Axl Rose v a Guns N Roses fan

By | Published on Saturday 13 February 2010

Last month, TMZ published a rumour that Guns N Roses fans who turned up to one of the band’s gigs in Canada were asked by security staff to hide or remove any garments featuring or inspired by former guitarist Slash. Axl Rose’s PA’s son, Fernando Lebeis, later issued a statement denying any such thing had been ordered by the GNR camp.

However, the debate has raged on one GNR forum – www.mygnrforum.com – with one fan in particular claiming that they could provide the name and phone number of a security guard who would corroborate that the clothing ban had, indeed, been enforced. In an attempt to put the matter to bed, Rose himself posted a message on the forum on Wednesday, telling the fan in question: “What the fuck do you know? That’s right! You don’t know jack fucking shit you fucking ignorant, know it all, fucking deluded, misguided, self important, self righteous, pious, small minded, clueless, loud mouthed, arrogant cunt. No one needs your opinions n’ having to deal with your constant abuse of privileges or the miniscule amount of power you’ve had here [on the message board] you wield like an angry, wannabe, high school parking lot rent-a-cop, always mouthing off like you’re some kind of authority which you’re far from”.

He continued: “I’ve never asked for anyone’s shirt bein’ thrown out of anywhere let alone say I did, but hey he won a contest so he must be credible. Whatever, no good deed goes unpunished. I don’t work for you or have to do a goddamn thing you think ever. Your opinions of anything whatsoever don’t count or mean jack shit to me or anyone in this camp. You’re garbage, plain and simple. You’re not a fan or a voice of reason… you’re a sick n’ diseased mind spilling it’s bile over the internet. Well now you can drink up the rewards of the crap that’s been spillin’ out of your pie hole forever here n’ enjoy the fermented, feted n’ vulgar response you’ve been cultivating n’ aching for… for so long. Find another board this one doesn’t need you”.

Challenging anyone else to come forward with any criticism, he concluded: “Oh n’ feel free to jump in all you wanna be web warriors, ho defenders n’ bitch bois, you ain’t needed either. For the rest of you… Surprise gigs comin’!!”
