Axl Rose is a true rock 'n' roll icon. Born on February 6, 1962 in Indiana, he has been the sole constant member of the hard rock band Guns N' Roses since 1985. Possessing a powerful and wide-ranging voice, Axl has been lauded by many media outlets as one of the best singers of all time. At age 17, he fled his hometown on a Greyhound bus bound for Los Angeles to pursue music. After auditioning for several punk bands unsuccessfully, his fortunes changed when he joined L.A. Guns and eventually formed Guns N' Roses with Slash and the others. With the success of their debut album "Appetite For Destruction", Axl's star power continued to grow as they took to massive stadium tours and rose to fame. However, internal struggles within the band members combined with rampant drug use eventually brought an end to Guns N' Roses until recently. In April 1990, Axl married Erin Everly in Las Vegas cementing his status as a sex symbol among fans. Axl Rose continues to be one of the most celebrated names in rock 'n' roll music, with a net worth estimated at $200 million dollars.
