Circus Maximus has never been confirmed to be connected to Ides Of March and should not be postulated as such. It's just a theory.

Unless Axl wrote multiple songs based on Ancient Rome it seems to be a good theory.

You might be right, but 2 things;

Remember how we thought Me and My Elvis was Elvis Presley and the Monster of Soul (which was renamed Monsters?) Well clearly it wasn't. Just 2 different tracks that had the words Elvis in the title. Unless it turns out Monsters isn't Soul Monster - which again would further prove the point anyway.

Also the track was supposedly called Ides of March in 98 on conception. I suppose they could have renamed it Circus Maximus in 2000 then changed the back in the early 00s to Ides again, but still... (see chinese whispers].
