Axl Rose's Stage Wipeouts Featured in Guns N' Roses' Humorous Instagram Compilation
Guns N' Roses are embracing frontman Axl Rose's history of onstage missteps with humor, sharing a lighthearted compilation of his most memorable falls. Posted on the band's official Instagram account, the video montage showcases Rose's many tumbles throughout his decades-long career — all set to the backdrop of their iconic track, 'Welcome to the Jungle.' Titled 'Guns N' Roses Greatest Hits,' the one-minute video features clips dating back to the 1980s and highlights a series of onstage wipeouts. The footage shows Rose falling backward, face-first, and even walking straight off the stage. One of the more recent mishaps occurred during their concert in Mumbai over the weekend, when the 63-year-old singer tripped while sprinting up a staircase mid-performance of 'Sweet Child O' Mine.' That incident appears as the second clip in the reel. Fans and followers responded positively to the self-deprecating post, applauding the band's willingness to laugh at themselves — particularly Rose, who has remained at the helm of the group through countless tours and performances. The compilation coincides with the launch of Guns N' Roses' 'Because What You Want & What You Get Are Two Completely Different Things' World Tour. The band is set to perform across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East through the end of July. Select shows will feature special guests including Public Enemy, Rival Sons, and Sex Pistols. This tour also introduces drummer Isaac Carpenter, who joined the lineup earlier this year after replacing longtime member Frank Ferrer. 'Carpenter has made a name for himself by uniquely blending versatility and groove with crushing force and technical skill,' the band said in a statement, adding that being behind the drum kit may be the safest place when it comes to avoiding Rose-style stumbles.
