From an interview with Britt Daniel of Divine Fits and Spoon:
Why do you hate Axl Rose?
Well, I just think that he's kinda the worst type of rock star out there, who's totally self-involved and precious about his own music and won't put out a record and can't — you know, all the great people that made that first Guns N' Roses record what it was can't stand working with him, or he doesn't wanna work with them. I mean, I don't know. Racist, and, uh, homophobic. Problems like that. He's chilled out. There was a very obnoxious phase for Axl Rose. I'm sure if I had experienced as much success as he had, I would probably be a third as obnoxious. I'd probably be obnoxious, too. But not that much.
