All of Axl's faces match sooooo perfectly with what everyone is saying. LOVE IT!!!!!!! I love koalas. Sweet pic! Just look at Slash's smile. Happy and loved-up. Looooove. I gotta ask though, what is the American thing with wearing backwards baseball caps??? It doesn't even look that good on Meegan. Why do people do it?? 7 hours ago, BlueJean Baby said: Love that pic!! I've kinda been down all day and that made a big difference... Well retweet my tweet to Axl and Del...please This is lovely @Blue-Jean Baby Isn't that the thing for fans of Axl and Guns in general - a picture, a clip, a gif... any kind of engagement with our band is a mood enhancer. I certainly find this. When I went through a really hard time recently, GNR fangirling kept me sane. 7 hours ago, Whiskey Rose said: We need a "The Very Best of.." secret sub-thread in here!

Fansince88 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 I hate myself a little bit for doing this, but I read Steven Adler's Mom's book. I had a long flight for work last week and I hate flying so I read it to pass the time on the plane. Honestly, the book is so poorly written/edited that even if you do want to give her the benefit of the doubt that she wrote it to help others, it doesn't come across that way at all. Her relationship with her son comes across as really, really fucked up and it leaves you feeling like you need a shower when you are done reading it. When the whole Celebrity Rehab/Sober House stuff was going on I was busy having kids so I never saw the shows or read his book, so you all probably have heard this stuff before but here are the few interesting (and I use that term loosely) tidbits: Spoiler She talks about Axl and Steven sending a limo to her house with a bag of dirty laundry and how later they came over for dinner and as she was ironing Axl's jeans: "Steven told me to take a good look at what I was pressing I hadn't noticed that Axl's pants were full of profanity. All over the pants were two words "Fuck You" How sick! Unfortunately these words from Axl would prove to be prophetic " Her hate for Axl is pretty clear throughout book and among her claims is that he got her fired from her "Ask Deanna" column in Kerrang magazine. Later (after the RRHOF) she says that Steven and Axl met and that Axl told Steven that it was pretty much Slash who "campaigned" to get Steven out of the band and that Axl was telling Steven now because he "was sick of covering for Slash" and that Axl was "fed up with being branded the manipulative asshole who intimidated everyone in the band and single handedly booted Adler out". She writes about Axl's Mom: (this took place at the LA Coliseum when they were opening for the Rolling Stones) " During the concert I met Axl's Mom Sharon Bailey. Sharon was a very down to earth, well dresssed, sweet woman. Sharon and I chatted about the band's success. Then we expressed our feelings about Geffen and the boys . It turned out we shared many of the same secrets and concerns. But with Sharon, I sensed an almost healthy resignation; an acceptance that our sons' excessive lifestyles were a mandatory part of the equation. Sharon told me that she traveled all the way from Indiana to see her son, but had spent only a few minutes with Axl. She felt this was unavoidable due to the demands presently being put upon the group to write new music, hold interviews and continue touring. Mothers want their sons to be happy and I sensed that this beautiful woman had made her share of sacrifices for her son. We traded looks and there was a moment between us worth a hundred heartaches" As for the GNR lawyers and management, she pretty much hates them too. According to her, they talked Steven out of sending flowers to the family of the two boys who died at Donnington and that management encouraged all of the guys to make wills. She was livid when she saw that in Steven's will "the band's manager was the executor of the will. In the section for dispersal of personal property the manager's name appeared again. He was listed to receive Steven's house in Studio City and his Mercedes." She then goes on to say that he left Axl some videotapes, but nothing to his stepdad/brother. The book was written just before Coachella with an epilogue about the reunion. At the start of the book she says that they were hopeful about Steven being asked to do Coachella. As for Axl's broken foot at Coachella she had this lovely sentiment: "It also made the concert at Coachella kind of curios and comical, because Axl had to stay in a sitting position throughout the entire concert, which probably made Slash and Duff shake their heads and the Coachella kids wonder why the lead singer of GNR looked like a pudgy pink hobbit who never stirred from his toadstool". Lastly this is what she says about the reunion: "It became obvious that Steven would not be asked to rejoin the band for the kick off of their North American tour. His lower back had not healed completely and it must have been extremely difficult for him to watch GNR perform in city after city to rave reviews without him". As for shows that Steven did do, she is kind of tight lipped about it -- Just that he got an important phone call and couldn't talk about it and the next thing she knew, he was in Nashville 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The part about Axl's mother made me furious. The poor mothers who have to suffer because they cannot get their son's attention? After all we know about their, especially Axl's childhood. Just sick.

Adlers Mom has to know about Axl's history, so to put his Mom in a sympathetic kind of light was quite sickening. The whole tone of the book is very "woe is me", so I think that the part about Axl's Mom was to further prove the point that Deanne feels she has suffered the most in all of this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frey Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Omg That book sounds exactly like I expected it to sound, but somehow it's even worse. That entire part of her talking about how much she and Mrs. Bailey suffered and have in common, jesus My eyes nearly rolled out of my head. But yeah sure, they have a lot in common. They're both absolutely pathetic excuses for mothers and managed to raise the two by far most messed up guys in the band. Quote Later (after the RRHOF) she says that Steven and Axl met and that Axl told Steven that it was pretty much Slash who "campaigned" to get Steven out of the band and that Axl was telling Steven now because he "was sick of covering for Slash" and that Axl was "fed up with being branded the manipulative asshole who intimidated everyone in the band and single handedly booted Adler out". I can totally believe that and I've read something similar before about Slash being a driving force in getting Steven kicked out of the band. Also fits well with Slash's usual passive-aggressive, sneaky patterns of behavior. Slash has never been a very good friend to Steven, and while I can understand to some extent why he and Steven grew apart and why Duff more or less replaced Steven in Slash's life, it still was kinda shitty of Slash to drop his childhood friend like a hot potato and to treat him like crap for years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Lumikki Posted February 7, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted February 7, 2017 (edited) @Andy14 I can't even decide which one's my favorite. But I do like Axl's disturbed facial expression after Dizzy's suggestion and Izzy's song. Plus all of Slash's bitchy-nes of course @Kris_1989 Well done on the video. At least we have that. My thoughts are very similar on the whole Duff thread issue to what a couple of other people have expressed here ---------- Mrs. Adler's book... oh boy... so awful. And yet I'm still tempted to read it. I agree about the story Axl told Steven probably being true. And hasn't Axl said before that he was the last one who agreed to fire Steven? Mrs. Adler and Mrs. Bailey having mom talks about their sons and all the pain their sons have put them through. Feels like I've landed in a parallel universe or something. Not surprised they got on well though. They both did like choosing awful men over their own children's lifes and well-being. ---------- So much I want to comment on, but for now... new pics. (And by "new" I mean high-res versions of pics we already know or different shots from photoshoots we already know.) Credit for these pretty pictures goes to sunrise9memories on Tumblr, who's a saint for giving us all these pics. Huge thanks, I've always wanted high definition versions and outtakes of these photoshoots. I mean look at this Their grins. I think that's an especially cute pic of Iz and Slash And this lovely photoshoot. One of my all time favorites: (I mean this photoshoot has everyhing- laughing Axl, laughing Izzy, goofball Slash (all three of which are pretty rare in pictures usually), Slaxl, Sluff, Izzaxl, all of them being pretty...) This pretty boy: And this one too: Edited February 7, 2017 by Lumikki 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewelka Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Hi everyone! I'm new here. I've been reading this forum for a while, but I decided to create an account just now because I have something interasting to share. I had to read Elliot Aronson's book "The Social Animal" for one of my classes. There's a part in which he talks about the ability to think of something as your own memory from the past even though that memory isn't real. It happens when somebody else mentions to you something as an event that happened in your life and it seems 100% realistic, but you never actually expierienced it. He also said that in 80s and 90s there was a lot of people who because of their therapists realised they forgot they were raped or sexually harassed as small children. Some of them ended up suing their close relatives for this, but then they were noticing that these memories didn't actually make sense (like a person they thought raped them was away at the time) and the memories weren't real, they just added them to their life story because therapists suggested that they could have occured. I don't know if anyone will understand what I'm talking about, it's hard to explain ;P. Anyway, the first thing that came to my mind after I read this; what if this is what happend to Axl? It is a logical explanation to me and even the time when he remembered what his father did to him is the same as with those people mentioned in the book. I'm curious to see what you think? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
