In an unexpected development, Guns N' Roses have released an official video which features almost an entire minute's footage of frontman Axl Rose falling over onstage.
The 59-second clip compiles 14 different instances of Axl taking a tumble – although one, to be fair, seems to be a deliberate fall – alongside a single moment where the unsteady frontman trips but cleverly retains his balance.
Quite why the publicity-shy Rose has elected to approve this compilation of clumsiness is unclear, although we imagine it's got something to do with publicising the band's ongoing Because What You Want & What You Get Are Two Completely Different Things Tour, which kicked off at the Songdo Moonlight Park in Incheon, South Korea, at the beginning of the month.
What's more, we've done the math. Guns N' Roses have played somewhere in the region of 1092 shows over the course of their career, meaning that Axl falls over at 1.28% of the band's performances. This is, we suspect, much higher than any other frontman, with the possible exception of Dave Grohl.
So buy a ticket. You might get lucky and witness Axl going arse-over-tit for a 15th time.
The next date on Guns N' Roses' tour is at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on May 23. Full dates below.
