'My guess is Motley Crue,' wrote one person, while another expressed their relief at not seeing Vince Neil, Nikki Sixx, Tommy Lee and John 5 rock out on the stage over the weekend.
'That would be one band I am glad to not have seen play this event,' they wrote, as another agreed, 'Yeah, having to sit through Axl was bad enough, having to endure Vince Neil too would have been double the pain.'
Another added fuel to the fire, writing, 'I think it's Motley Crue because they made so much money on there(sic) Farewell tour and said they were done..then all of a sudden they want to come back for another cash grab and that's when Mars left the band. Even if they have money. They need more.'
However, other fans theorized that it was actually Kiss who were kicked off the last 'Crazy Train.'

'I'm thinking KISS. The most greedy band on the planet,' one person wrote.
Another added, 'I seen something about them referring to Kiss. That's my bet also.'
'KISS, had to be KISS. Gene Simmons is all about that money,' a third added.

KISS last performed together in December 2023 at Madison Square Garden, where the band held its final show of their career as part of the 'End of the Road Tour.'
While others speculated that the band in question was Iron Maiden and Megadeth, Sharon had previously denied that Iron Maiden were disinvited from the event in an interview with Metal Hammer.
Elsewhere, Sharon's daughter, Kelly Osbourne, denied that Megadeath was the correct answer, writing, 'Nope! Not him!' in the comments section of an Instagram post from Metal Addicts last month.
The rumor mill has been in full swing since Sharon made the revelation, saying the group was booted because they wanted to cash in on Ozzy's final farewell.
'It's not the time to make a profit,' she told Billboard ahead of last Saturday's event. 'After the show, I'll let everybody know who it was. I think people will be shocked.'

Anthony Carrigan's Hair Loss Comments Prompt Fan Love
This week, Anthony Carrigan was interviewed on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, where he discussed his experience living with alopecia. Anthony has had alopecia areata, a disorder that causes hair loss, since he was 3. "You've been very open about your experience with alopecia, which causes sort of the radical hair loss," Stephen began. "What was it like starting out in an industry that puts such a premium on standard normative looks?" Anthony, 42, admitted, "It was obviously quite a journey because when — I had it since I was a kid, and I would cover it up because it was just spots at the time. So it started as something that I would cover up. I had a lot of shame over. I didn't really like anyone knowing I had alopecia." Becoming an actor and living under the constant glare of Hollywood only amplified his insecurities. Anthony said, "Getting into the industry — obviously I chose the right industry to get into — but eventually, I got to the place where after being told I was never gonna act again..." "Really?" Stephen interjected. "They said you should get out?" "Oh, fully get out," Anthony confessed. "Yeah, 'You're never gonna act again. You're not attractive anymore. You should stop.' And this was when my hair was really going." "So I found something within myself, this kind of self-acceptance that I never had as a kid, and now, that's my superpower," Anthony said, drawing cheers and applause from the audience. His comments also prompted reactions online, with many sharing love and support for the actor. "Glad he ignored all that negativity and kept going cause he's a really incredible actor," one Reddit user said, while others chimed in to share their favorite TV and movie projects. One person declared, "Noho Hank is one of TV's greatest characters," while another fan wrote, "I don't swing that way but I always thought he was an attractive dude, he's got some aura. Loved him in Barry." They also praised his "top tier" performance as Victor Zsasz in Gotham and his portrayal as Metamorpho in the new Superman film. "He played the hell out of Zsasz-y in Gotham," someone said. "I was terrified of him. Then [I] realized his range when he was such a sweetheart as metamorpho…" And of course, people were very angry and hurt to hear about all of the mean comments that Anthony had received for his hair loss. "Haters are funny," one comment read. "they always project their hate, but if you talk to them long enough, they only hate themselves." Another said, "Fuck you whoever told him he would never act again," as someone else said they "feel the need to hug him right now 🥺" You can see the interview here and catch Anthony in Superman now in theaters.
