Hired Guns N' Roses show postponed, and its not Axls fault!


Normally I wouldn't bother posting about a postponed/canceled/failed Guns N Roses concert, since it's nothing new.  BUT, in this case the reason for the postponement of GNR's show in Jakarta, Indonesia isn't Axl's fault!  And, yes, that is shocking news.  I'll give the details on that in a second, but first I need to share this wonderful find on facebook I got:


That's a photo of Axl's boarding ticket receipt.  PLEASE NOTE THAT HE IS CHECKING 18 BAGS!!!   I know that you need a shit ton of stuff while touring, but that all would get checked separately by the roadies with the tour gear.  SO, that means this is all Axl's personal items.   Pretty different from his days entering the jungle:


Back to his show in show in Jakarta, Indonesia after the jump...
The show was originally scheduled for yesterday (the 15th)  at Lapangan D Senayan, and outdoor arena, and had to be officially (not Axl!) postponed until today (December 16th) and moved to MEIS -Mata Elang International Stadium - which is an indoor stadium.  The show is starting freakishly early and I have no idea why, but the time is set for 1pm with doors at 11am.  The show had to move inside because the the outdoor stage was damaged by heavy rain on the 14th.

On top of it not being Axl's fault, the band also released and APOLOGY and allows for ticket refunds.  Amazing, really.   Commented the band:
"We apologize for the inconvenience caused by this unfortunate incident and hope that fans will understand that GUNS N' ROSES want nothing more than to deliver an amazing and safe show for their loyal fans.  Tickets to the original show will be honored at the new venue and we hope to see you all there tomorrow at 1pm.  Ticket holders who cannot make it to the show tomorrow can request a refund at Rajakarcis."
