#5201 Guns N' Roses » Man Arrested At Gunpoint For Using MP3 Player » 978 weeks ago

Next time you're reaching down for that iPod or Zune (or anything else for that matter), take care that you don't alarm the authorities with any suspicious movements -- or you could end up like the UK's Darren Nixon. Apparently, the mild-mannered mechanic was on his way home from work when the Bobbies surrounded him and drew their guns, believing that the MP3 player in his pocket was a firearm. According to the Daily Mail, Mr. Nixon was tracked on CCTV, arrested at gunpoint, swabbed for DNA, fingerprinted, and thrown in a cell -- all for listening to a bootleg of Chinese Democracy on a 4GB Philips GoGear. Said Darren, "I was really shocked when I saw the guns. They were pointing them right at me. It was a pretty scary experience. I had no idea what was going on." After the team of Mentat cops realized their mistake, they couldn't even offer an apology, said Nixon, "They just dropped me off at home and said a quick 'sorry for any inconvenience', and that was all I got from them, which I thought was pretty out of order." Once again, a hot serving of sweet justice.

If it's because this was a semi-VR fan board, fine.
If it's because Weiland was in a band with former Guns N' Roses members then...

What about the Kiss thread...?

They are about as GNR related, as STP.

And yes, STP belongs as a well respected sticky in Black Hole, but not it's own section.

We called it football over 600 years before the US even existed.
Stick that in your pipe and smoke it...

Football.
It makes more sense. The ball is at the player's feet, wheras with American Football they carry it. I win
Soccer.
It makes more sense. Americans call it soccer, so that's what it is. We win.
Just because your national team, sucks.

Drummer Josh Freese recently spoke to the Las Vegas Review-Journal about working with two of the most talked-about singers in the rock world: A PERFECT CIRCLE's Maynard James Keenan and GUNS N' ROSES' Axl Rose.
Although Keenan is often painted as a dark recluse, and Rose as a megalomaniac, Freese said he has no odd revelations about either singer.
"Axl was always nice to me and always generous," Josh said. "People want to hear horror stories, but I personally don't have any. And Maynard is a serious artist who, on one hand in regular life, could be as normal as you or I.
