Rose kept fans waiting for two hours at the same festival in 2001.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n Rock in Rio&#8217;s vice president Roberta Medina tells Brazilian magazine Epoca, &#8220;(Guns N&#8217; Roses&#8217; appearance was) the hardest to arrange on the history of the festival. Bands are usually on time, but Guns is a different case. Latenesses like the one in 2001&#8230; can make the public feel uncomfortable and cause them to possibly start a riot.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!--INFOLINKS_OFF--><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/224f048eetURLCookie.asp_148.gif\" \/><\/p>\n<p>More:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.contactmusic.com\/news.nsf\/story\/axl-rose-agrees-late-clause-for-rock-in-rio-gig_1210884\" title=\"AXL ROSE - AXL ROSE AGREES 'LATE CLAUSE' FOR ROCK IN RIO GIG\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">AXL ROSE &#8211;
