donny Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 i never tried the vodka but i used to do regular tobacco runs to adinkerke in belgium and the shops there had black death cigarettes so i had a pack of 20 just to try. this was around 94-96.

Blackstar Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Axl talks about the offers they got from companies to sponsor the shows. Says he was hesitant about it, but then, since he drinks Budweiser and smokes Marlboros he didn't mind and didn't have a problem with sponsoring, until he saw "The Boys Are Back In Town" by Thin Lizzy being used in a commercial: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ericstacey Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 I remember Slash saying they paid him a lot of money, then the company just went away, or went out of business 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
