Axl Rose is holding on to his microphone, for now.
The Gun N’ Roses frontman penned a lengthy statement on Twitter following a report that one fan at a concert in Australia was injured after Axl tossed the mic into the crowd — a longstanding tradition signaling the end of a GNR show.
“It’s come to my attention that a fan may have been hurt at r show in Adelaide Australia possibly being hit by the microphone at the end of the show when I traditionally toss the mic to the fans,” he wrote.

After the band’s final song, “Paradise City,” Rose threw the microphone into the sea of people at Adelaide Oval last week, and allegedly struck Rebecca Howe in the face. Howe said she suffered two black eyes.
“If true obviously we don’t want anyone getting hurt or to somehow in anyway hurt anyone at any of r shows anywhere,” Axl wrote.
“Having tossed the mic at the end of r show for over 30 years we always felt it was a known part of the very end of r performance that fans wanted and were aware of to have an opportunity to catch the mic.”
He added, “Regardless in the interest of public safety from now on we’ll refrain from tossing the mic or anything to the fans during or at r performances.”

“Unfortunately there r those that for their own reasons chose to frame their reporting regarding this subject in a more negative n’ irresponsible out of nowhere light which couldn’t b farther from reality. We hope the public and of course r fans get that sometimes happens.
“A BIG THANKS to everyone for understanding.”
Hundreds of GNR fans responded to Rose’s tweet with dismay. One follower wrote it was “one of the greatest days/nights” of their lives after they caught the mic during a Guns N’ Roses show.
Howe told Adelaide Advertiser after the incident, “What if it was a couple of inches to the right or left? I could have lost an eye … what if it hit me in the mouth and I broke my teeth? If my head was turned and it hit me in the temple, it could have killed me.”
The band — including Slash, Duff McKagan, Dizzy Reed, Richard Fortus, Frank Ferrer and Melissa Reese — is heading to New Zealand for two more tour stops on their highly anticipated 2020 tour, which was postponed due to the pandemic. They’ll end the Guns N’ Roses 2020 Tour in London at Hyde Park on June 30, 2023.
Pittsburgh Steelers rookie George Pickens appeared to be frustrated with the lack of targets on one of the team’s drives in the team’s 19-16 win against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.
The wide receiver’s outburst came early in the fourth quarter after wide receiver Diontae Johnson dropped the ball on third down, giving it back to the Falcons. Pickens was seen on the broadcast yelling at coaches to get him the ball.

“Come on, man. Throw me the f—ing ball,” he was seen saying.
It wasn’t clear exactly who Pickens was directing his frustration toward. The former Georgia standout came into the game with 36 catches for 510 yards and two touchdowns. His targets could’ve been increased following Chase Claypool’s trade to the Chicago Bears, but he hasn’t gotten more than six since Week 5.
Pickens had one catch on two targets for two yards in the game.

Falcons quarterback Marcus Mariota was 13 of 24 with 167 passing yards, a touchdown pass and an interception. He threw a 7-yard touchdown pass to MyCole Pruitt.
Steelers kicker Matthew Wright was 4-for-4 on field goals.
Pittsburgh improved to 5-7 and Atlanta dropped to 5-7.
