Noticed this picture of Black Label Society playing at High Voltage festival and don't quite know what to make of the backdrop, is it a deliberate copy? I'm sure I read somewhere once that they don't get along?

The last I heard of him mentioning Axl was him calling Axl a 'sweetheart'.  Hardly not getting a long.

lol at all the marshalls
What are your current thoughts about Kurt Cobain?

Axl: I said I'm going on ChiDem now and he said whatever & walked away other than that I've been busy.

Gn'R "copied" Journey or Kansas or someone used that font style before....

Regardless they don't use that style anymore and even in 2006 they had a modified version.
I miss that 2006 logo. Way better than the current one. Ugh. Gross.

Zakk Wylde has always had nothing but great praise for Axl!! and vice versa  Axl is a fan of Zakk as well !!
if you go back to 1994-95 or so Axl tried to bring Zakk to GnR and work with Slash to Join Guns, but it didnt work out!!  But Zakk always said that Axl was/is a friend

considering axl probably got the font off of buckethead, who used it on his albums, who in turn probably took it from someone else i dont think there can be too much to say about this.
