Re: Axl best tenant ever article
Trending #1 on Yahoo.com.
Slightly on topic, I meant to post this a while back. It's from my college alumni circular, keeping tabs on former students. A girl (much younger than me so no I didn't know her) works for the casino industry in struggling Atlantic City, NJ. Anyway if you click the link & goto page 11 she references GnR as testing her patience with their catering order, and Axl's incessant need to drape his entire hotel room. Very brief reference, but I found it interesting in a way.

Re: Axl best tenant ever article
Reminds me of this.
Axl and his cronies are an unmitigated disaster when it comes to financing. CD burned through millions because expenses be damned. The profits of the UYI tour were muchly blown on the road on afterparties and whatnot, before the bookies told Ax to wake up, unless he'd like to return home broke. Typical rags to riches story, as he grew up on the skids in Indiana and never had enough money to be bothered with it. Then, when hitting paydirt, his spending habits remained unchanged, and it seems the years have done little to affect this. Axl's most certainly not motivated by money either way, he's merely cushioned to the idea that he always has enough to spend it on nice things he'd like to have without a second thought.
Re: Axl best tenant ever article
No doubt, but when you add that to being chronically disinterested of your finances, you're just begging for someone to take monetary advantage on you. Axl really comes out as the proverbial cash cow, for years having been the reclusive millionaire who needs to be pampered for his woes and insecurities, unable to function in an everyday life, and never thinking twice how much he made last month.
Once in a while, in a New Age community that embraces a certain number of charlatans, Axl got taken to the cleaners. During his marriage to Everly, Axl went for an exorcism. The exorcism apparently didn't involved the priests and crosses that viewers of prime-time television have come to expect. "Mainly it involved getting some kind of herbal wrap," Axl testified during the Everly case, some "work on my skin." The man who performed this procedure charged $72,000. Even Axl admitted, "I ended up getting ripped off for a lot of money in the long run."
Good chunks go into frivolous lawsuits and the maintaining of Team Brazil, as well...
