"Shouldn’t someone as big as Guns N’ Roses have their soundcheck dialed in before the show starts?"That question launches a wildly entertaining ride through music mayhem, cosmic wonders, and Krystina’s wonderfully nerdy world in this episode of The Ben and Skin Show. Join Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray as they unpack the chaos of Axl Rose’s on-stage meltdown in Argentina and dive into the celestial spectacle lighting up the night sky.

Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's the Pop the Top Heads, Christina's Cooky Jar.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Christine. Christine has.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
So over the weekend. Guns and Roses, they're they're on
tour right now. They had a show in Argentina Saturday
night and they kicked it off. They started it off
with Welcome to the Jungle. Huge way to just kick
off a Guns and Roses show, right, let's go. Well, basically,
right towards the end, you see Axel Rose getting frustrated
(00:50):
to the point where he hands up, throwing a mic
at a drum drum set, storming off stage, and there's
something else he does too, but I want to let
you guys watch it unfold. Multiple people in the crowd
caught it on video, so here's a little compilation for you.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Here.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
He just threw out his ear monitors, Ris's off his
leather jacket, so angry.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Storms backstage.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
Hey, now he's to come back out.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
I'll just try this, okay. So he came back out.
He ended up finishing the set and he said, I'm
just going to try to wing this. So apparently he's
spoken out. Just a few hours ago what actually happened
because people were like, what's he mad at? The soundtech
was he mad at the drummer. Since he threw the
mic right at the drum kit, It's like, come on, man,
what do you do? At least he didn't throw it
(01:55):
in the crowd. Apparently he's done that before. Well, it
turns out that in his years he could only hear
the percussion and nothing else. But they were luckily they
were able to fix it by the third song. And
so again he came back out there before they fixed it.
He finished, He finished the rest of the set, no problem,
but by the third song they officially had it fixed
(02:16):
and ready to go for him.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
You know, you can do damage to his voice. It
already sounds really damaged by not having the levels right
on the monitors and all that. Yeah, because you start
over singing and compensating and all this crazy stuff. Yeah,
but he doesn't seem to handle adversity. Well, now, that hard.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
He did throw that hard, And I think about, like,
when you're gonna throw something, you really do need to
warm up.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
You're probably not gonna be as accurate.
Speaker 5 (02:48):
You need a bullpen catcher just to catch a bunch
of microphones and then throw one at the drummer because
it could have sailed away on him. And hit the
drummer in the face.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
Yeah, exactly, And I'm trying to see okay as the
Roses sixty three years old, so I mean that's pretty impressive.
That's a good throw for a sixty three year old.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Yeah. Yeah, Slash is gonna be back, But dude, we
have to hear your voice and iron They played twenty
nine songs that show.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
Twenty nine. Yeah, I bet people wanted to hear seven.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Looks, about six or seven covers.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
And they started off with that.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Anyway, I just thought it was funny. My favorite part
is him taking off with the leather jacket all pissed
and storming backstage. Anyway, it was a it was a
technical issue that they fixed. But also I was thinking,
someone as big as Guns and Roses shouldn't your the
people sound checking for you. Shouldn't they have that all,
you know, even ironed out before you're coming on stage.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Oh.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
Absolutely, they they're gonna especially I'm sure they're doing a
stadium show. They're down in Argentina. They have their own
they'll have their own unless it's a festival, they'll have
their own sound crew.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Okay, I don't think it's a festival. Yeah, night two. Anyways,
it must have been something that happened right before they
went on stage. So anyway, he has apologized and let
everyone know this is what happened. But I didn't get
to look into it because it did say that there's
an incident back in twenty twenty two where he threw
a mic in the crowd.
Speaker 5 (04:15):
I now believe it.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
So yeah, anyway, Uh, do you guys know what's going
on tonight? We have something huge happening tonight. Some comments
or something comments, yes, oh.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Is that true? Tonight?
Speaker 1 (04:30):
There's so there's green commets you can see tonight on
top of the Orionid meteor shower. And this is apparently
when we passed through the debris from the Haley's comment.
This is extra nerdy, I know, but it's gonna be
awesome because you can see like ten to twenty commets
meteors any hour per hour. What time right at midnight?
They say midnight to two am is the peak?
Speaker 4 (04:51):
Did you you know? You said we're passing through some
sort of astronomical debris or something, so it's just something
from debris. Does this happen frequently? Are right? Regularly?
Speaker 5 (05:02):
Regularly?
Speaker 1 (05:03):
That's a great question.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Skin joining us now on the Eagle Hotline. It's a
former astronaut John Glenn. I, guys, I like to have
sex like Christina.
Speaker 5 (05:15):
Is one of the most unique humans of all time.
She's so awesome. She's straight up nerd, but also in
a Nirvana cover band. She's like the coolest girl in
the world. It's a pretty nerdy Nirvana. I think I'm
the nerdiest. But they play video games. Nirvana and dinosaurs.
(05:35):
That's outer space and astronomy.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
Roses and astronomy. Yes, I'm going to be out there
at midnight looking for these things.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
