BREAKING: Axl Rose no longer wishes to be taken down to the Paradise City.



CNN BREAKING: Axl Rose, current frontman for the semi-reunited Guns N' Roses as well as AC/DC, told CNN reporters today that he no longer wishes to be taken down to the Paradise City.

Was it a change in the grass or the girls? "Nope," Rose told CNN's Dana Bash, who had a chance encounter with the singer at a Starbucks en route to a local Donald Trump rally. "Still green, still pretty."

"I was singing the song the other night and got to the lines about "Just a urchin livin' under the street, I'm a hard case that's tough to beat, I'm your charity case so buy me something to eat" and realized I'm getting a million dollars per show for putting up with Slash and another million a night from Angus and laughed out loud. I laughed so hard that I fell off of Dave Grohl's throne and fractured my penis. Doctor told me it'll be OK but it will be in a splint for the remainder of the tour and that I should avoid any visual stimuli, including looking at my own beautiful face in the mirror."

Rose then spilled the beans about the setlist he has worked out with Angus Young for the remaining dates of the AC/DC tour. "We're going to open with "Whole Lotta Rosie"...I sing that one real good...then we'll be doing "Mr. Brownstone," "My Michelle," "Civil War," "Night Train," "November Rain," and then what I know will be a BIG treat for the fans...the "Chinese Democracy" album in its entirety. We finish with an encore, "Patience."

When reminded that the setlist only included one actual AC/DC song, Rose replied "Who's Stacy Ducey?"

The Guns N' Roses and AC/DC tours continue into 2016.

Never liked them when they were recognizable, will probably only know when they are gone when I see it in the news.
