Axl Blames ASCAP

08/29/05
. (antiMUSIC) Earlier this month former Guns N' Roses members Slash and Duff filed a lawsuit against Axl Rose because Rose reportedly instructed ASCAP to route all royalty payments to his publishing company, thus cutting off royalties due to other members of the group.

Apparently that was all a big mistake. According to MSNBC, Axl's attorney, Howard Weitzman, says that it was a clerical error on the part of ASCAP. Axl apparently instructed them to send only his portion to his publishing company but they sent the whole lot. MSNBC reports that Weitzman said that Axl has since returned the extra money to ASCAP.
