Guns N' Roses Share 'Greatest Hits' Video Compilation of Axl Rose Wiping Out Onstage
Guns N' Roses know how to laugh at themselves. On Monday, May 19, the band's official Instagram account shared a video compilation of 14 times that Axl Rose has wiped out onstage over the years. In the video, which is set to the band's 1987 classic "Welcome to the Jungle," the lead vocalist, 63, can be seen face-planting, walking over the stage and collapsing on his back. Also included is Rose's latest fall from his Saturday, May 17 concert in Mumbai, India, where he tripped up the stairs during the band's performance of the 1988 track "Sweet Child O' Mine." "Guns N' Roses Greatest Hits!" they captioned the post. Guns N' Roses is currently on their Because What You Want & What You Get Are Two Completely Different Things World Tour, which kicked off on May 1 in Incheon, South Korea will see the band making stops in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East through the end of July. The band will also be joined by artists including Public Enemy, Rival Sons, and Sex Pistols on select dates. The band's new drummer Isaac Carpenter, who replaced Frank Ferrer after he left earlier this year, is joining them for these dates. After nearly 20 years, Ferrer — the group's longest-tenured drummer — announced his exit in March 2025. In a statement, Guns N' Roses announced Ferrer's 'amicable' departure on Instagram. 'Guns N' Roses announce the amicable exit of Frank Ferrer,' it read.

Jason Momoa to host Ozzy Osbourne's farewell show at Villa Park
Jason Momoa has been announced as the host for Ozzy Osbourne's farewell show at Birmingham's Villa Park this summer, alongside a whole new host of additions to an already-stacked bill. Today (February 17) sees confirmation of Tool, Guns N' Roses and Rival Sons as part of what is being billed as 'the greatest heavy metal show ever'. The show will see the first ever Black Sabbath line-up of Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward all reunite, though Ozzy has said his health issues mean will he perform 'little bits and pieces' throughout the day as opposed to a full set. It will be Osbourne's last live performance and also playing will be the likes of Metallica, Slayer, Pantera, Gojira, Halestorm, Alice In Chains, Lamb Of God, Anthrax and Mastodon. There will also be a 'supergroup of musicians' which includes Guns 'n' Roses' Duff McKagan and Slash, The Smashing Pumpkins' Billy Corgan, Limp Bizkit's Fred Durst and Rage Against The Machine's Tom Morello, who will be the musical director of the show. Osbourne said: 'It's my time to go Back to the Beginning….time for me to give back to the place where I was born. 'How blessed am I to do it with the help of people whom I love. Birmingham is the true home of metal. Birmingham Forever.' Tickets for 'Back To The Beginning' went on sale last Friday and sold out within minutes. All profits from the gig will go to Cure Parkinson's, Birmingham Children's Hospital and Acorn Children's Hospice, a Children's Hospice supported by Aston Villa. Last May, bassist Geezer Butler said that he and Osbourne had 'agreed' to play one more show at Birmingham's Villa Park before he truly retires. It came after Osbourne said he would 'jump at the chance' to play a final show with Sabbath and admitted he felt 'sad' that drummer Bill Ward was not part of the group's final show in 2017. Osbourne also told Rolling Stone UK that he may have to 'accept the fact' that a live comeback isn't feasible due to his Parkinson's Disease.
