Guns N' Roses is currently touring across down under and instead of frontman Axl Rose giving his best to concertgoers, it appears that he's distracted with a type of gadget, leading him to issue a statement to call out people who bring it at their shows; what could this be?
Taking to his official Twitter account, the rock band's singer said their current leg had "a few drones" flying around while they perform on stage.
Their most recent show, at the Metricon Stadium in Gold Coast, Australia, is said to be the "most intrusive" because he considers the flying robot a "distraction" as the one operating the gadget as it flew their drones in front of the stage and even fly over them while performing.

It seems like the band has already consulted with the police as Rose added that authorities said "it happens more often than not lately especially with sporting event." (via Loudwire)
The frontman later explained that having drones on their show is not something that all people are used to, adding, "a lot of impulse reactions went thru everyone's minds that after thinking about it." Rose also noted that people were pissed because of the gadget.
Concluding his post, Rose has a message to the drone operator, saying they get that a bootleg video of their show through drones "can be fun" but the band would appreciate it if fans who are planning to fly the gadget in the future, they would consider other people's feelings and they should play with their "toys" somewhere else.
