Hopefully QOTSA isnt ruined by douchebag GnR fans

That's different though because Kings Of Leon are played all the time so all the youngsters that have taken over the festival would have heard them on radio. They have probably heard 'Sex On Fire' about 50 times but I doubt they have ever heard 'Welcome To The Jungle'.

Out of their 20 song set list, they played 8 songs from Only By The Night.

The question is, if you were in their position would you have done the same thing. Make music, which is just as good and aimed at the masses - whilst making yourself a small fortune?

I'd be surprised if there were that many hardcore GNR fans to be honest, most of them would be put off by the fact that it isn't the 'proper' band so it'll mainly just be younger people who know five or six songs and who will probably be into QOTSA as well anyway.

Guns N Roses Vs LCD Soundsystem or 'Carling' Tent headling. The majority of them won't even give GNR the time of day which is why I think they'll get a fairly hardcore support. I think a lot of people will buy day tickets just to see them.

Douchebag? Are you Kelly Osbourne?

Has it occured to anyone else that Axle may throw a strop about about Josh playing under him and may cancel on the night?

My take on KOL last year and their trouble at Reading was that there were plenty of "true" fans there but they only played two songs from their first record. They catered for the newer fans who don't add as much to the atmosphere by playing a lot of their slower stuff; if they had played older stuff then the people were there ready to appreciate it. They got their set list all wrong.

there is more chance GNR will be ruined by people shouting "play welcome to the jungle, paradise city, sweet child o mine"

but the same can be said for most acts like blink "play whats my age again?!?!"
