AXL ROSE Hints At 'Surprise Shows,' Blasts Fan Online

February 11, 2010

According to The Pulse of Radio, GUNS N' ROSES frontman Axl Rose took to both Twitter and a fan message board to hint at some possible "surprise gigs," thank fans on the group's recently completed Canadian tour and blast the administrator on a fan forum. Rosesaid on Twitter about the Canadian run, "That was insane!! And I mean that in the absolute BEST way possible!! We'll take a few days 2 regroup n' jump in2 the next thing. Thanks 2 everyone 4 coming out, hope u had fun!! We had a blast!! Can't wait 2 see u again!!"

Meanwhile, in his obscenity-laden tirade against a fan forum's administrator, which touched on recent reports that Rose had banned anyone wearing a Slash T-shirt or top hat from the Canadian gigs, Rosecalled the person on MyGNRForum (where Axl posts under the name "Dexter") "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." And that's about all we can print here.

Rose did end his rant, however, by writing, "For the rest of you... Surprise gigs comin'!!"

GUNS N' ROSES has already announced a new set of South American dates, beginning on March 7 in Brazil and ending on April 1 in Ecuador. There's still no word on a tour of the U.S.
