Guns N’ Roses were detained by Canadian border officials ahead of their show in Toronto on Saturday night for having a gun.
The band waited until playing their 18th song Out Ta Get Me at the sold-out show in the city before Axl Rose made light of the incident in front of the 50,000-strong crowd.
He says: “You did what? ‘Oh, yeah, we found a gun.’ So we weren’t exactly arrested, we were detained. They were very nice – they were very understanding.
He adds sarcastically: “You know, it happens. You can forget you had a fucking gun. Wasn’t my gun.”
A band representative tells Billboard that the weapon didn’t belong to any member of the group, but confirmed the incident did take place.
