Detroit Strip Clubs: Axl gets into gear for another shot at fame

Detroit, March, 1992. I have flown all the way to this economically distressed city — it looked like Dublin does now — to interview Guns N’ Roses (on the foot of their imminent, sellout show at Slane Castle). There has, sadly, been a nasty riot at the show the night before I land and Guns N’ Roses have sped across the border to Canada to avoid arrest.
So their management have to entertain a bored group of Irish journalists for a few days before they figure out what to do about no Guns N’ Roses to interview. We are brought to seemingly all the bars in Detroit and then, when they finally run out of ideas, a dreary dive bar cum strip club downtown. Either the barman spiked my last Bourbon with Ecstasy, or there’s a stripper standing astride our table wanting us (me and the group of Irish journalists) to hand over $10 so she can take her clothes off on it. The fact that she’s practically naked as it is hasn’t crossed her mind.
