Guns N' Roses Blamed For Poor Album Sales

Guns N' Roses have failed to sell as many copies of their new album 'Chinese Democracy', and the band's record label are allegedly blaming them - claims a new report today.
According to an insider, Geffen Records have not been able to get in touch with frontman Axl Rose for the last 2 months, meaning he was not available to promote the long awaited LP - which took 15 years to record.
"Everyone knows Axl is a bit of a maverick genius and won't do anything he doesn't want to do," a source told The Sun. "The label is really glad to have him back. But it is frustrating because the album would have had a much better chance of going to No1 if he had only been prepared to show his face."
"People have been trying to contact him for two months and he's been completely AWOL." The insider continued. "You would have thought after spending 15 years on an album you might do a few weeks promotion."
