Recognized for their electrifying performances, the legendary rock group Guns N’ Roses is still rolling its hump more than 40 years following its creation.

But recently, one of singer Axl Rose’s signature gestures took a toll on the face of an Australian fan.
Rose, 60, ends all her shows quite well by throwing her microphone into the crowd. But this time, Rebecca Howe received it in the face.
Both eyes swollen and black, the Australian told her version of the facts in an interview with local media.
“What would have happened if he had fallen a few inches further to the right or to the left? I might have lost my eye,” said the woman, still shaken. “And if it had fallen on my mouth, I would have lost my teeth!”
She even goes so far as to say that she might have died if she had received the microphone on her temple.
Following the fan’s outings, Axl Rose said on Twitter that he would no longer end his shows with a toss off the mic while criticizing the “negative and irresponsible” way the media covered the incident.
“Unfortunately, there are those who, for their own reasons, have chosen to focus their journalism in a negative and irresponsible way that mightn’t be further from the truth. We hope our audience understands that.”
We would like to end this text by reminding you that it is never a good idea to throw heavy objects into a crowd of people, even if you have been doing it for 30 years.
