"Let's bring up some people and give them a f—ing stick," frontman Axl Rose said as stagehands helped concertgoers up. "Express yourselves however you feel." Guns N' Roses encouraged fans to destroy a piñata of President-elect Donald Trump during their concert Wednesday night at Mexico City’s Palacio de los Deportes.

Frontman Axl Rose and the stage crew invited fans onstage and armed them with sticks and basically let them go to town on the thing, as TMZ points out.

off my list

Rose been sniffing too much glue..

[Opinionated Blowhard]

And when the candy spilled out of the piñata, Fat Axl was the first to dive in grabbing for it.

Never on my list. Had a roommate in college who was a fan before anybody knew who they were. He flunked out from partying too much. Go figure!

Wonder what the press would have said if he did this with an Obama pinata (pinyata)

[Tench_Coxe]

Gee Mr. Rose, there seems to be a problem with your passport.....

[Robert DeLong]

It’s a good thing I got all of their music that I have of them, for free.

[Read Write Repeat]

Heroin rotted his brain.

Welcome to the Jungle

[\/\/ayne]

So much hate on the left...

[mykroar]

Can you EVEN imagine the backlash if this had happened during the last 8 years? (I can - remember the rodea clown that was fired and run out of town?)

[rightwingintelligentsia]

Anyone know where I can buy a Guns ‘N Roses piñata?

I thought Guns N’ Roses were big Reagan/Bush fans in the 1980’s? Maybe I'm thinking of another one of the “big hair bands” like Poison, Motley Crue, etc (LOT of water under the bridge since those days).

[tuffydoodle]

You mean brain-rotted from drugs and VD Axl Rose doesn’t like Trump? That settles it, then!

[ari-freedom]

RAGE!!!!! AAAAUGH!!!!!

[Haiku Guy]

I would say we could have a fun time boycotting Guns N Roses like we did the Dixie Chicks back in the day...

But who the Hell listens to Guns N Roses anymore, anyway?

If something happens on their tour in Mexico FReepin’ City, you know they are pretty much irrelevant.

[Gargantua]

Bums & Posers are the absolute worst rock band alive. Just look at how they destroyed "Knockin on Heaven's Door!?"

Axl Rose is a screeching chimp, and that sweat-stain in a top-hat they call a "lead guitarist" plays the most banal, hackneyed cliché riffs like he's got 10 thumbs.

Any band with a ZERO lead singer and a ZERO lead guitarist may as well follow Cobain to the Dirt Lounge.

Not surprised they'd be numb about Trump, too.

I recall Axl Rose joining Elton John back in the early days of AIDS and the homosexuality-is-healthy-wholesome-normal-and-natural movement. I thought this was mighty unusual for a redneck southern country boy.

How BORING. Now, if I could have taken a stick to Axl to encourage him to get his fat ass back to actually making music I might have enjoyed it. But then again, eh. ;)
