It's a baseless claim to me since I have no idea who those people are making those claims.  The event organizer said Axl was ready to go on by 11:30.  Maybe the guy is lying.  Completely possible.  But at least he has a title and I know where he's coming from.  2 random posters from youtube, blabbermouth, wikipedia, etc.  I'm sorry, I'm not taking their word as gospel.  Do you think it's remotely possible they could make anything up?  IF they were even at the show to begin with, maybe the buzz around the crowd was that Axl was late and that was the reason for the delay, so they went and ran with that story.  Did they have contact with Axl that night?  Did they know the events of his itinerary?  When he left the hotel?  When he arrived at the venue?  How do people get this information?  They must be quite privileged.

Sensible, realistic and a joy to read.

There's always the issue of the DVD rights...

If there is a DVD involved, that contract would have been drawn up before the show. It's legally binding. You can't just wals into the room and demand that the event organizer publish a nice little writing about how Axl had nothing to do with it, or they won't have none of that DVD. That's basically a threat, and not the way to run a business.

Axl didn't bribe anyone. The guy is a P-R-O-M-O-T-E-R. No different than boxing.

Big name headliners, aren't gonna do his/her festivals, shows, and bring them money and business, if the last guy got slammed for each and every little thing.

The guy is kissing Axl's ass, because it's just good business. He's being professional. He could also be telling the truth, but in Axl's case, it's a stretch.

^^^ Well said. I too, think it's a bit of a stretch and even though the show was late (I was there and now I don't give a shit who's fault it was at this point 14), it's done and over with now. Changing topics, found this photo in the Blabbermouth comments...
