Silent Jay Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) Not much really, apart from Trump being at the madison square garden show in 1992, or maybe he meant 1991. (35:00). Edited January 13, 2016 by Silent Jay 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's great. here's the quote when he was asked when was the last time he heard from any of those guys "I heard from axl after my mitch lafon interview and he asked me to please not do anymore interviews because he was trying to repair some past relationships and the way i look at it those relationships are repaired so that's why I decided to talk you" or something along those lines.. I guess he's cool enough with doug to call him and say that. I doubt niven got that call Edited January 13, 2016 by spliff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asia Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Axl basically called Doug to tell him to shut up cause he was trying to mend his relationship with Slash and Doug was talking about things that caused the conflict. Not sure how Doug's talking can change anything but apparently such things matter to Axl. Anyway that doesn't mean anything changed between Axl and Doug. If this was the case Doug would never stop bragging about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Padme Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 only somewhat interesting thing is he spoke with axl last year after his mitch lafon interview and axl asked him not to do anymore interviews because he was trying to repair some relationshipsYeah that´s what I find interesting about the interview. He said the inteview with Lafon was in April and Axl called him to tell him to shut the fuck up. That means that either in April or before that Axl and Slash were trying to repair their relationship.

Brunzopolis Posted January 13, 2016 Author Share Posted January 13, 2016 At around 11:50 he mentions Axl not wanting to "squeak" on stage.Do you think Goldstein is referring to his voice, specifically, or is "squeak" just a synonym here for a poor performance overall?

appetite4illusions Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Goldstein sounds like a very highly strung person.Totally. You can see from the wavelength on the player where he is actually speaking, because it just spikes when he starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkness Descends Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Good interview. Better than Niven's... however, it was all over the place and haphazard. Mitch had a fanboy moment and was suffering from verbal dysentery.It looks like Doug Goldstein was an Axl manager than the band manager. His tongue was so far up Axl's butt that he probably made Axl think that everybody is his enemy.When 2 people start fighting or one person says something nasty... its usually coz of a reason. When there is no reason at all... I tend to believe that the 3rd party might have said something to rile them up. And in this case... many a times that third party could be Doug himself.For example: Doug said that once Axl was in a good mood after his annulment with Erin and wanted to talk to Niven again. Niven started telling him that he's a failure not just as a band member but also in his personal life. It seems bizarre... ofcourse Doug first went to Niven to start the communication channel... looks like he might have said something wrong for Niven to say crap like that which seems illogical and out-of-place.Other than that... I do believe that Axl was the last one to sign on the Steven Adler firing papers. Since he never rehearses, I believe that it was Slash and Duff who wanted to throw out Adler.

HubbaBubba Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 That's a much-quoted fact about steven's firing, but (a) it was probably because he was never at rehearsal and so wasn't around to sign the papers and (b) he still fucking signed them!

Darkness Descends Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 (edited) I just noticed Doug sniffin through out the interview.I noticed hearing ice in glass.What I understood from the interview was that managers must not be made friends... when a professional manager(s) start dealing with 'personalities' and are tackling personalities rather than work... thats trouble.

Look at the incident where Axl threatens Slash on stage. Why did he think Slash was trashing him to the audience? Well Doug was there to lend a helping hand.We had a run-in in Dayton [Ohio], because both myself and Dougie thought he said something shitty to me onstage. That was the night I cut my hand to the bone. Backstage we have monitors much like the ones onstage, and while I was back there dealing with my hand, I thought I heard him take a potshot at me. I wrapped my hand up in a towel and was like, "Let's get it taken care of, so I can finish the show." I came back onstage and was a dick to him and told him I'd kick his f?!king ass in front of 20,000 people. That was f?!ked up. I was wrong, and I apologized the second I realized I was mistaken. Someone who is supporting me as strongly as he does is a hand I never want to bite.Such a weird paranoid thing to think. Why would any of your bandmates be trashing you on stage? But this is where Axl's head was, with the help of Doug. The guy did a lot of damage to GNR imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
