^^I don't blame any artist for getting pissed when dumbass drunken buffoons are throwing things at them. I have never understood why they would do that...you pay for a ticket to go and see a band work their ass off playing music you like and have a great time. Even when I am deep in my cups I have never had the urge to throw anything at anyone at a concert, I would however gladly point out any losers who are throwing crap and have them kicked out.

Different story, when you pay for a ticket and show is being delayed another time in a row (Reading Festival and Belfast) for at least 3 hours, I believe just because Axl couldn't bother to move his fat ass on stage. I remember last year's Reading Festival, where they headlined (Sunday I think). Their concert was set for 9pm and they appeared at midnight and they had like one hour to play, because of the law that says after 1am night has to be silent (or something like that).

^^That is why I don't respect Axl and never have, he was too capricious and did let his fans down all the time.

In general though, I have zero tolerance for throwing anything at a band on stage...there is no excuse for that period.

People always have to ruin gigs and concerts for others.

People I could never stand: Dave Mustaine, Lars, punk bands in general, John Lennon, Bono, Axl Rose, Liam Gallagher and Roger Waters

Also, I think the rock god to the left in my avatar could have qualified for this list in the 70's. He had a reputation for being somewhat of a self-important, womanizing, controlling and moody a**hole... but I still love him. :heheh:

Brian Jones and Jim Morrison could very easily be on the list as well.
