10 Most Infamous Guns N' Roses Moments

By Wayne Madden /

The most dangerous band in the world. It's hard to imagine now just how much trouble five young "runaways" would inflict upon the International music scene in such a short space of time. Living for the moment and sometimes moments from living this band were the definition of flying too close to the sun. Guns N' Roses exploded onto the music scene in 1987 with their debut album 'Appetite for Destruction' - mixing the raw attitude of Punk with the aggression and musical styling of anything between Jimi Hendrix, Queen and The Rolling Stones. In a few short summers the band had imploded, into a mixture of myth and mystery, before front man W. Axl Rose emerged at the turn of a new Millennium with a cryptic video about cleanliness and earning the nickname "the Howard Hughes of Rock N' Roll" Today Guns N' Roses tours and performs around the world - Axl Rose is still firmly at the helm, while his former bandmates (numbering between 3 and 30 depending on whose accounts you believe) attempt to forge their own solo careers. Bands like Slash's Snakepit, Loaded, Velvet Revolver, Rockstar Supernova and Adler's Appetite only find global success because of the links and connections they have to the Guns N' Roses name. Talent simply doesn't outshine infamy. But I'm getting ahead of myself, and that's not like me at all, neither is it like Guns N' Roses. For your "appetite" I present the 10 Most Infamous Moments of Guns N' Roses, providing an insight into this bands makeup, their personal members habits and feelings and maybe answering that Universal question - just what makes them so damn special? Welcome to the Jungle.
