Lio Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNjcjOEX_NA This is actually the reason I rediscovered GNR last summer. Damn you, Slash What a god-awful horrendous way to rediscover something. You have my sincerest apologies.Well... never thought I'd see him doing Tomorrowland, that's for sure. It actually got worse after that. I thought: Gee, I wonder what Axl is up to these days. The first videos you bump into are Axl Rose Disaster I and II and the Kimmel thing. Then you see things about something called Team Brazil and some woman named Beta... I don't know why I didn't stop looking then, but here I am 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I say that with SCOM being my favorite Guns songs but come on really?Contraband debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, selling 256,000 copies in its first week of release.[1] Notably, this marked the best-ever debut for a new rock artist in the SoundScan era. The album would eventually sell over 2.9 million copies in the United States, and 4 million worldwide.The first single, "Slither", topped a composite world modern rock chart in June, and later hit #1 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Chart for 8 weeks. The follow-up, "Fall to Pieces", was a major crossover hit that reached #1 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Chart for 11 weeks.In 2005, Velvet Revolver won the Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance, an award Weiland had previously won for the Stone Temple Pilots song "Plush" in 1994. At the ceremony, they were asked to play the music for a cover of The Beatles' "Across the Universe". The live recording was a hit on iTunes, with all proceeds going to charity. In January 2005, Velvet Revolver were also asked to play the music for a cover of Eric Clapton's "Tears in Heaven". The single was to aid victims of the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake, with all proceeds going to Save the Children Foundation.

Anyway, I don't think Slash think so anymore.Nah, it's like writing a letter to your girlfriend, that's gay. How can you be an homosexual for doing that? Axl is not gay, his lyrics for SCOM are.

Bards Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 So Slash didn't like something in 1986 and said that the music-buying public clearly had a different opinion than he did. What am I missing here? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What am I missing here?You aren't missing anything, however a lot of people here are missing the past tense context of what was said or ignore it in favor if internet pitchforking Although what Slash said probably wasn't the most efficient and PC way of wording it but still....

Snowmass Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 (edited) Maybe it's a hint regarding Axl. Axl always talking about Slash..."he's in my ass" etc...Axl never have ever gotten over Slash leaving him etc.....Axl likening the break up to a divorce and acting like a jilted lover.

saber_ Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Perhaps Slash is... lying? Haha. Legendary rock interview with guns n roses insider and author marc canterLRI: Slash ended up going to the Hall Of Fame but originally he put out a blurb in the press saying how the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame didn’t really mean that much to him before issuing a clarification a few days later saying he understands it’s a great honor. What’s your take on where his head was at on that?Marc: He lies.LRI: Huh ??!!!(laughs).Marc: No, seriously Slash lies. (laughs). Axl was right about that in a sense but the way that Slash lies is that he lies to make himself look cool for the most part. For example saying that Sweet Child was lame when its still a part of his set and obviously means a great deal. He just wants to be the eternally cool rocker, Joe Perry used to say the same thing about Dream On. He’ll lie on occasion to twist out of something because every now and then he gets caught in a corner. He of course, does care about those awards and acknowledgements and that’s why he admitted later that it was a great honor to be included and everything. That first quote also may have come as a result of him being cornered by the press. He was, at that time, under the assumption, like many were, that Axl and his current band would be invited and of course Slash wanted no part of that. Later, he found out that wasn’t the case and that it was only going to be the people who ended up getting asked for inclusion and it didn’t include Axl’s current band. Once he realized that it wasn’t going to be he and Steven and Duff in one corner and Axl and the new band in another he was okay with it all. When he realized that wasn’t happening he was like “Yeah, it’s an honor and blah, blah, blah”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
