GNR agree to pay late fine
We all know that Guns N’ Roses always turn up late for gigs (well, allegedly. I don’t know, because I wouldn’t go to a Guns N’ Roses gig if you paid me), so the organizers at the Rock in Rio Festival have said they will fine Axl and the band if they don’t take to the stage on time.
As fascinating as all this is, it’s not as awesome as our brilliant interview with the splendid Guns N’ Roses guitarist Bumblefoot. If you haven’t done so already, check it out here. Am I so lazy that I have to turn a new post into one about a previous interview? Yes, yes I am.
Friday Top 10: Best metal songs of all time
Yes, that’s right! We’re doing it. This Friday’s Top 10 is all about metal… But not just any metal… The best metal songs of all time.
After weeks of deliberation, this is what we came up with and I think you’ll be pretty satisfied with the list.
So what are you waiting for? Make the jump… Now.
Black Appetite For Puppets
You like my title? Fuck you.
Anyway, these three albums made Rolling Stone’s Top 10 albums of the 80s. Here’s the complete list:
01. U2 – The Joshua Tree
02. Guns N’ Roses – Appetite For Destruction
03. Michael Jackson – Thriller
04. Bruce Springsteen – Born In The U.S.A.
05. Prince – Purple Rain
06. AC/DC – Back In Black
07. The Smiths – The Queen Is Dead
08. The Clash – London Calling
09. The Cure – Disintegration
10. Metallica – Master Of Puppets
It’s not a bad top. I don’t agree with the order though, but I’m pretty sure it’s a matter of opinion… And opinions are like assholes, they itch and are dirty.

DJ Ashba packs a 9mm
Guns N’ Roses member DJ Ashba (who isn’t actually a DJ) is having surgery on his knee, which sounds pretty painful.
MRI Update: I have a 9mm tear in my knee, so Im off to the surgeons, not getting surgery on my knee today but, setting up the surgery date. Fun fun! Hope everyone has an amazing day! Much Love~
Read update here.
Get well soon, Ashba!
P.S. = In case you missed it, here’s our interview with GNR guitarist Bumblefoot.
Interview: Ron “Bumblefoot” Thal (Guns N’ Roses)
We love it when we get to talk to musicians directly and interview them without third parties involved, and such was the case with Mr. Thal.
We’re proud of all the interviews we’ve done on this site but few interviewees really played along when it came to our unique way of asking questions. Remember Axe?
But Bumblefoot gets this type of humor and he embraces it, this is why this is my favorite Dose Of Metal interview so far.
So if you want to know what a typical day in the life of Bumblefoot is like, what his stage name would have been if his wife wasn’t a veterinarian, what he thinks should happen to us or how many necks a proper guitar should have, make the jump…
