@The Fairy King If you read plenty of books on Queen and Freddie it is well documented that Mercury stated if he ever met Axl Rose he would spit in his face and i remember Brian May telling that story too.
You see when Axl was young stupid and ignorant he was also homophobic and Freddie was his main target to attack, but in later years after Fred died Axl changed his opinions around and declared Freddie was an amazing vocalist and musician.
I think Brian had invited him over to the Freddie tribute concert to let him know there was no more hard feelings.

I'm not saying I don't believe you, but "if you read plenty of books" is NOT a source for a very specific information which none from us seems to remember

GNR have only spoken about how Queen have influenced the group to the point that they might've sounded different or even be non-existant.
Michael Eavis has refused Queen despite the group's agent writing to him personally. www.express.co.uk/entertainment/music/1207777/Queen-and-Adam-Lambert-Brian-May-Glastonbury-2020-headliners-Michael-Eavis-Paul-McCartney

Record companies were involved. QUEEN, Freddie were huge in popularity due to his death an the Bohemian Rhaspody single. Also the Aids was something that many artists wanted to help for increasing awareness. But the truth is that many artist were there due to record companies.

I think it was in very poor taste to invite Lisa Stansfield Paul Young and even Axl Rose and Metallica !
Freddie had no interest in that bunch of losers.

Freddie admired Lisa, he had seen her in Broadway and in other occasions. Also she was invited at Queen party for Brit Awards in 1990, some other guests were George Micheal, Lisa Mineli, Rod Stewart, Paul Young.
Metallica was a record company decision and G nR was friends of Brian and Roger, also Queen fans.
The Tribute was beautiful goodbye and honored Freddie as artists and human.

The concert was a bit strange. I remember really not liking it when it was on TV. I just wanted to see films of Freddie that night. I think we all kind of did actually. It could have been so much better. Montserrat actually should have been there, even if she wasn't going to sing. Maybe she couldn't make it of course. Looking back on it, Elton and Liza were the best choices. Extreme was a bit strange, and GnR were also a little bit of an eyebrow raiser.
I don't think that Bob Geldof wrote that song with Freddie by the way.

Metallica were there as genuine Queen fans. Lars had mentioned their albums in interviews several years before 1992. They had also recorded their version of Stone Cold Crazy and had been playing it, on and off, for a number of years.
