Brian was not fired nor did he quit so this scenario is not a fair analogy. If my memory is correct Axel volunteered himself. If Stevie ever cannot tour anymore, I will gladly volunteer myself. I can play the cowbell off beat better than her.
Insulting to play a GNR song in the ACDC set?

I don't see why it's not fair. I think if Slash were filling in for Angus I'd agree with you (not on insulting), but replacing a lead singer is different, in my opinion. It was the last leg of the tour, Brian wasn't returning.

I agree with what they did anyway. Keep it an AC/DC set. It's cute that Axl was singing the new songs promoting their new album.
