Guns & Roses, Guns and RosesMusic Quotes:
I discovered that I scream the same way whether I'm about to be devoured by a Great White or if a piece of seaweed touches my foot. I'm late to everything. I've always wanted to have it written in my will that when I die, the coffin shows up a half hour late and says on the side, like in gold, 'Sorry I'm Late'. Fear is where there is no love. Love is where there is no fear. ~Axl Rose~

Crime Records:
"Riot act"
Rose had pleaded innocent to four misdemeanor counts of assault and one count of property damage stemming from the riot that broke out during his July 2, 1991, concert at the Riverport Amphitheatre in Maryland Heights, just outside St. Louis. Videotape showed Rose diving into the concert crowd when he spotted someone with a camera, then punching a man. He then smashed his microphone on the stage and stormed off, ending the show early. Several thousand dollars' worth of property damage was reported by the outdoor theater from the ensuing riot. Gregory said he found that Rose was guilty of the charges "beyond a reasonable doubt." "Well, well, thanks to the lame ass security, I'm goin' home!" **BASH!**

"Used to Love Her"
The Lyrics: I used to love her,
But I had to kill her. I used to love her, mmm, yeah, But I had to kill her. I had to put her six feet under, And I can still hear her complain. Why: Not a good song to have suddenly come blasting out while a man is being questioned about his wife's murder.
