When Axl got angry at Riverport Guns N'Roses Concert in 1991 and stormed off after an Audience Member was illegally filming him and his Gun Brothers(And he dove in literally to stop the filming and hit a Security Member for failing to do his job, or at least properly, he slammed the microphone and stormed off. All of his Gun Brothers followed him, leaving their Fans angry and confused. Then a Riot ensued shortly as a result of this.
Do you take care of your Band Brother or support your Fans in this situation? I mean obviously, Axl was beyond angry and it's only logical that the Guns would want to take care of their Rose Brother when he's this upset. But all four of them leaving with him was a ballsy move, especially when there are MANY Fans who paid to see a full set.
I don't understand why Slash, Duff, and Steven didn't send Izzy to go support Axl (Izzy showed the most concern for Axl when Axl suddenly stopped performing and demanded the guy be grabbed and the item be taken away from him) and the three of them finish the set. There was no logical reason for all four Gun Brothers to leave with Axl. He REALLY just needed one Gun to go support him, and calm him down. In fact, it was said that the original plan was to go calm Axl down and then all five of them would continue and finish the set once Hurricane Axl was no longer an angry storm, but the riot had already gotten out of control by then and the Guns N'Roses Manager ushered them to the bus to ride for the hills. Just one Gun Brother was needed to go calm Axl down, not all 4. The Gun Brothers knew that Axl was explosive, fiery, temperamental, moody, impulsive. His bursts of anger were no surprise to them. Just send one Brother to support him and that would have been ideal and maybe the Riot wouldn't happened.
