While I hate Axl Rose like most people, I find this a bunch of bull. Axl Rose is being accused of banning Slash t-shirts if fans are wearing them at his shows. I don’t think Axl would be responsible for this ’cause the way his attitude is lately, he wouldn’t give a fuck what people wear at his concerts. It could be the venue’s decision or this punk kid could be trying to make Axl look bad. I don’t think Axl would really care what shirts people are wearing in the audience ’cause it would be hard to see out there, wouldn’t you say? In the front row, I’m sure you can tell what shirts people are wearing but way in the back, no. I don’t think Axl has anything to do with this. Probably a silly rumor going around.
More on the story, here.

Agreed – it seems unlikely. But who knows… Haven’t seen too many sceptics out there – good call.
NME historically has it out for Axl, so they’re all over stuff like this. The reporting is shoddy and one “witness” does not a story make. There are plenty of fans admitted with Slash t-shirts (GNR fan forums corroborate this). One has to wonder what else this guy’s shirt said…
