Axl Rose goes AWOL

1 month ago 02nd Dec 12:01

Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose has been missing for two months.

The eccentric rocker has infuriated bosses at record label Geffen after disappearing without promoting the band's long-awaited 'Chinese Democracy' album, which was released last week 15 years after the last Guns N' Roses LP.

A source told Britain's The Sun newspaper: "People have been trying to contact Axl for two months and he's completely AWOL [Absent Without Leave].

"It is frustrating because the album would have had a much better chance of going to number one if he had only been prepared to show his face.

You would have thought after spending all those years on an album you might do a few weeks of promotion

"You would have thought after spending all those years on an album you might do a few weeks of promotion.

"Everyone knows Axl is a bit of a maverick genius and won't do anything he doesn't want to."

'Chinese Democracy' was beaten to the number one spot in the UK album charts by The Killers' 'Day and Age', which sold 200,000 copies - nearly twice as many as Axl's record, which is rumoured to have cost $13 million, making it the most expensive ever album.
