Axl Rose is late for his own concerts
Axl Rose ,of Guns N’ Roses fame, has made his fans wait up to three hours before he showed up for a concert. He has been notoriously late to shows for years causing fans to go wild and riot.
Apparently, being late also meant staying true to the Guns N’ Roses brand of being the wild boys of rock n roll.

I would be if you’d quit calling to ask every 5 mins.
