Axl Rose Sued for $1.9 Million

Guns n' Roses is now managed by Doc McGhee, Kiss’ manager since 1996 and the man credited with helping artists like Bon Jovi, Mötley Crüe, and Hootie & the Blowfish rise to fame.

But now trouble has arisen with former managers as they have filed $1.9 million lawsuit particularly against the band's leader, Axl Rose. The lawsuit claims that Rose reneged on a verbal agreement from 2008.

The $1.9 million is 15 percent commission Rose's previous Front Line Management was promised of the estimated $12 million the band have earned so far in their tours of Asia and South America.

Specifically the lawsuit talks of breach of contract for “failing and refusing” to pay Front Line the promised 15 percent.

Guns n’ Roses are currently on tour in South America and has nothing to say to any news outlet.
