Comments on: that aretha story i mentioned http://blogs.e-rockford.com/bricksandclicks/2008/01/30/that-aretha-story-i-mentioned/ The Rockford Register Star is more than a newspaper: the ink on print or the "bricks" in the News Tower. We're a multimedia news and information company: the "clicks" on our Web site and the TV clips on WREX-13.

The show was nearly cut short due to some yahoo hitting Axl Rose in the head with something, but fortunately Axl came back out and they went right into their future #1 hit "Sweet Child 'O Mine". So a couple thousand Rockfordians get to say, "I saw that band before they were really famous..".
