Axl arrives at Rio, in style:
 
 
GUNS N' ROSES are among the first acts to arrive in BRAZIL for their ROCK IN RIO III headline show on Sunday (January 14), and already AXL ROSE is back on top rock star strop form!
NME.COM is out in Rio, and the band, who are expected to arrive at Galeao Airport soon, have already been creating waves, we can report.
Having decided that the accommodation already booked for him wasn't up to scratch, Rose has rented an entire floor of the five-star Intercontinental Hotel for his entourage, and is paying for it out of his own pocket.
Axl himself will be staying in the #1,000-a-night Presidential Suite, which measures 185 square metres, faces the sea and has a huge Jacuzzi. He has requested it to be filled with roses, and champagne and Godiva chocolates have also been requested.
At the festival site, the band have demanded 24 white roses, plus 24 red roses in the dressing room, Cristal champagne in a silver bucket with crystal glasses, silver cutlery, and linen sheets and two boxes of Godiva chocolate in their dressing room.
 
Meanwhile, rumours have been raging in the city that former GN'R axeman Slash will be in the city over the weekend. However, with no sign of him around town just yet, and no gigs having been announced, it seems that fans are likely to be disappointed.
