Friend said he died 2 years ago from drug overdose
W. Axl Rose (born February 6, 1962) is an American hard rock singer and songwriter, born William Bruce Rose, Jr. in Lafayette, Indiana, and grew up under the name William "Bill" Bailey. He is best known as the lead singer of Guns N' Roses, and is the only original member still part of the band's line-up. Axl was brought up in a fanatically religious Pentecostal family. He had a troubled childhood and, as an adult, claimed that repressed memories had revealed to him that his biological father, William Rose, had sexually abused him as a small child. William Rose left the family when Axl was two years old. He also suffered physical abuse at the hands of his stepfather, Stephen "Beetle" Bailey, not to be confused with Mort Walker creator of the King Features Syndicated comic "Beetle Bailey".
Growing up, Axl thought Bailey was his biological father; Axl's name had been "Bill Bailey" since his father had left. At age seventeen, he learned of his biological father's existence and readopted his birth name, William Rose. He would only refer to himself as "W. Rose", however, as he did not wish to share a name with his biological father. The strict discipline and Pentecostal education he endured as a child led to his rebellion as an adolescent against both Indiana and society in general.
Because of his turbulent upbringing and his mother's reluctance to leave the abusive Bailey, Axl is said to have issues with women. He himself claimed in a Rolling Stone Interview in 1992 that during his childhood he was made to believe that women and sexuality were evil and that due to the violent treatment of his mother by his stepfather he witnessed as an impressionable child, he had been led to think that domestic violence was the normal way of things 1.
Rose showed strong interest in music and as a teenager and formed a band called Axl. He kept the band's name as his own, and adopted the name Axl as his own legal name.
Throughout his youth, Axl was in trouble numerous times with the police and was arrested over twenty times on charges such as public drunkenness and assault. In his late teenage years Lafayette authorities attempted to have him locked up as a Habitual Criminal and on the advice of his lawyer, he left Indiana and headed to Los Angeles in the early 1980s to pursue a rock music career where he was re-united with close childhood friend and former indiana bandmate, Izzy Stradlin.
