GUNS N' ROSES Guitarist, Drummer Interviewed In El Salvador; Video Available

April 20, 2010

El Salvador's "Ahora" show (which airs on channel 21) conducted separate interviews with GUNS N' ROSES members D.J. Ashba and Frank Ferrer when the band played the country on April 11, 2010. Watch the footage below.

According to RT, GUNS N' ROSES will play in Moscow, Russia for the first time ever on June 8 at the Olympiysky Stadium.

Ticket prices range from $50 to $270.

Vladimir Zubitsky of SAV Entertainment told RIA Novosti news agency that it will be a real rock and roll gig. "Fans will hear everything they love by the band," he said. "Besides, [Axl] Rose loves playing for a long time, so their performance will last about three hours."

As previously reported, GUNS N' ROSES frontman Axl Rose is being sued by his former manager for nearly $2 million dollars in unpaid commissions, according to the Associated Press. Front Line Management, led by music industry powerhouse Irving Azoff, filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles on March 25, claiming that Rose owes the company $1.9 million, or 15 percent of the more than $12 million that Rose has earned from performances in Europe, Canada and South America, based on an oral agreement.

Azoff, considered one of the most powerful men in music, has managed the careers of artists such as the EAGLES and VAN HALEN, and at one point handled the affairs of Rose's former GUNS bandmates in VELVET REVOLVER.

He is widely credited with pushing Rose to finally complete and release the 2008 GUNS album "Chinese Democracy" after a 15-year delay.

Rose parted ways with Azoff at some point in the last year and claims he is now handled by Doc McGhee, a veteran rock manager whose clients over the years have included KISS, BON JOVI and MÖTLEY CRÜE. However, KISS frontman Paul Stanley recently told Classic Rock magazine that McGhee is in fact not managing Rose nor GUNS N' ROSES.

The eccentric singer has not yet commented publicly on the lawsuit.
