Insane guy from Guns n Roses. Was pretty good at doing what he did, and mostly keeps to himself nowadays.
Get over it, people. Maybe he wants a break. He's still the shit though. Who else records himself screwing a random chick and then plays it in the background of a song? Only Axl.

Complete fucking badass. Awesome guy, and anyone with some fucking taste in music regrets GN'R breaking up.
Axl Rose is a badass motherfucker.

A legend in his own right, same as Slash and Duff, the other two greats of GnR. A red-haired rock-GOD with a temper to match, who can be sexy, dangerous and sweet, all in the space of a song. His style, attitude, and voice is like nothing the world has ever known before and ever will again. As you can see, I am, along with millions of others, a fan.

Frontman of Guns N' Roses, the greatest Rock N' Roll band from the late 80's and early 90's. Axl Rose is a Legendary Rock-superstar, a genius musician, the best singer ever, yet the most dangerous.

He is the frontman for Guns n' Roses. The only orginal bandmember left, and one of only 2 members from GNR's heyday left, the other one being keyboardist dizzy reed. He is right behind Robert Plant and Ozzy Osbourne for the title of greatest metal frontman ever, and had he produced more music, I'm sure he'd be on top. He is known for his high, powerful voice, his stage presence, his trademark tights and bandana, his wildness, and his occasional sentimental side.
He was born in Indiana in 1962 as William Bruce Rose Jr. When he was a baby, his abusive birth father left the family and he was renamed William Bruce Bailley for his stepfather, who beat up him & his mom and molested him at 2. As a teenager, he got tired of his stepfather, his town, and his fundamentalist christian upbringing, and left for LA. He wanted to drop his stepfather's name, but didn't want his dad's name (apparently his dad beat his mom while she was pregnant with him) so he became W. Axl Rose.
In LA, while in Hollywood Rose (a band) he met up with childhood friend Izzy Stradlin, who was in LA Guns. There were various lineup shuffles, and eventually Izzy and Axl formed Guns n' Roses. After several more lineup changes, GNR emerged with Duff McKagan, Steven Adler, and Slash. They became local fav's, and soon signed a contract for Appetite for Destruction. This album was a huge hit, going multi-platinum. The next album, GNR Lies, was big too, despite controversy over One in a Million. The band's hugeness reached a peak with the Use Your Illusion albums. However, conflicts were tearing them appart, 5th album "The Spaghetti Incident" was pretty weak, and eventually Axl was kicked out by duff and slash. 3 days later he sued to get the band's name, and won, then kicked out everyone except dizzy reed. He's brought in countless replacements to work on Chinese Democracy, and play shows when he feels like it. He recently made the news for a barfight with Tommy Hilfiger at Rosario Dawson's birthday party. He has quit drugs, after the experience of being clinically dead for 10 minutes. He likes live concerts, supermodels, and the quest for inner peace.

Don't fuck with Axl Rose.
