bacardimayne Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Izzy leaving. Wasn't it said that the 5 shows Izzy played after telling Axl he was going to quit were the only 5 shows Axl ever showed up on time for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damn_Smooth Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 That wasn't very sad and neither one of them knew it or they wouldn't have had interviews long after that talking about the next album.Just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmo Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I'd say it was the unidentified moment Axl gave up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiraMPD Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 (edited) Is this from the same show? Argentina '93? Anyway why is that sad? I think the pic droezle posted might count as a sad moment. Or perhaps any day during which one of them nearly died? I imagine the day Slash experienced heart failure must have been a nightmare of a day...Or maybe for the fans it was a sad day when it was officially announced that Slash quit? I remember my brother was quite pissed when he heard that news. Edited August 16, 2012 by KiraMPD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vincent Vega Posted August 17, 2012 Author Share Posted August 17, 2012 That wasn't very sad and neither one of them knew it or they wouldn't have had interviews long after that talking about the next album.Just saying. They talked only to give a sense of hope. But I think both Axl and Slash saw the writing on the wall definitely by '93. Axl said here he knew the band was dying before the UYI tour started. Slash has sort of said the same thing in retrospect. And Matt said no one wanted to go home at the end of the UYI tour because they all knew deep down that meant the end.Even if they said a lot of hopeful stuff, it was just for good PR. Think of how hopeful Slash and Duff sounded in the first year or so after Scott departed from VR--It's just hopefulness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kill Devil Hill Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Slash said the opposite in his book. '92 was when he foresaw the breakup of the band, but in '93, the band was closer than ever, and he felt like they were all brothers after that night in the OP.

classicrawker Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 The day Slash and Duff signed their rights away to Axl............ That was the real beginning of the end IMHO...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he was afraid of that down time leading to a relapse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowOfTheWave Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Slash was plotting his takeover of Guns, then when he realized he had signed the name over he got bitchy and left. Axl's been paying for it ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocker rockstar Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 (edited) This is sad in retrospect because this was the ending of the last concert with Slash. Really the last old guns GNR show. Edited September 2, 2012 by rocker rockstar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
