Guns N’ Roses Told No Alcohol On Stage, Cancel Show

Guns N’ Roses canceled a performance in Portland, Maine this week after being told by state officials that the band could not drink on stage.

Inspectors from the state fire marshal’s office gave the band the no-drinking order when they came to look over the pyrotechnics planned for Monday’s scheduled concert at the Cumberland County Civic Center, said Stephen McCausland, spokesman for the Maine Public Safety Department.

After the cancellation, a band spokesman blamed fire marshals for “making it impossible for the band to perform their show to the usual high standards that their fans deserve.” The press release, however, did not give a specific reason for the pullout.</i>

Short version:

“I’m Axl and I’m an alcoholic”.
