Axl Rose's medical emergency and more

I haven't talked about Axl Rose or Guns N' Roses in a while so I thought I would take the opportunity. The new Guns N' Roses European tour wrapped up with some news earlier in the summer, plus an ending with an Axl medical emergency says Blabbermouth:
According to the press release, Rose was diagnosed with low blood pressure and low blood sugar on Sunday morning after performing two concerts on Saturday night (July 29), a full arena performance and a surprise late-night acoustic set at a club. Rose said he insisted on performing Sunday night, although he was unable to finish the show. Ex-SKID ROW singer Sebastian Bach filled in on "Nightrain" and "Paradise City".
Also from Blabbermouth, Ex-Guns guitarist Gilby Clarke (now of CBS Rockstar Supernova fame) talks about life when he was in Guns N' Roses and it just so happened to be the biggest band on Earth at the time. That's some wild stuff. Here is what Clarke said about working with Axl:
Gilby: "I've always said he's an incredibly talented guy. The things he writes about blows my mind. The music probably isn't going to have the same angst that it had, but there's probably gonna be some really great stuff on there."
