Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose became ill while performing with the group during the last concert of their European tour.

According to reports, Rose was forced to bow out of the gig towards the end of the set because he was feeling unwell.

Doctors had reportedly advised the singer not to take to the stage for the show in London's Wembley Arena after problems with low blood pressure and low blood sugar levels earlier that day.

After the show the singer said: "I approached this last show with equal parts determination, obligation, responsibility and insanity."

Former Skid Row singer Sebastian Bach, who had joined Guns N' Roses for the show, stepped in on lead vocals after Rose began to feel ill.
