Guns n Roses have issued an explanation for the sound issues BBC viewers noticed during their headline performance at Glastonbury. On Saturday night, the LA rock legends took to the iconic Pyramid stage at 9.30pm for their first ever set at the Somerset festival.
It is 36 years since Appetite for Destruction became the biggest-selling debut album in history in 1987. The band had been separated for years before reuniting. And fans at Glastonbury could not have been happier. With frontman Axl Rose, guitarist Slash and bassist Duff McKagan in full flow, the seven-piece band sent festival-goers wild, delivering classics such as Sweet Child O' Mine and Welcome To The Jungle.
But many Glastonbury viewers watching the BBC coverage on TV repeatedly complained that Rose's vocals appeared to keep dropping out. While the rest of the band's sound appeared perfectly pitched, the singer's vocals seemed to come and go.
