  1. Thanks. I wasn't sure it was but it did look a bit like the decor of his old house he shared with Perla so thought it could be. Sorry OP. I'm not much help to you.
  2. This is a video of what I think is his old home studio. He's moved house since then so I don't know what his current set up is or whether he's let camera's in. Others who follow Slash more closely might know.
  3. Why TF did this thread get derailed with posts about sexy cartoon animals? Stay focused guys!
  4. It seems to me that what Slash wants from Axl and what he gets are not always the same thing. Slash is good at PR that works for him which is generally sounding positive about a new GNR album whilst promoting the stuff he is actually doing. I think I will probably stay sceptical about an album until I actually have it in hand.
  5. Seems like this is not real so locking the thread. If it turns out to be real someone PM a staff member and it can be reopened.
  6. Agree. Not one person in all this is free from their own issues and we probably shouldn't post old IG arguments without mentioning that Harry Brant died. Whatever he meant by that post doesn't really matter now.
  7. Congrats. I gave you a profile pic as a celebratory gift. Feel free to change it though!
  8. This is good news for most of the accused. No better way to be lost and forgotten than in a big crowd.
  9. Jamie Foxx stole the headline in The Times newspaper. Axl relegated to also! Jamie Foxx accused of sexual assault in New York bar Axl Rose also faces claim under state law that extends time victims can bring cases https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/49dead66-89e0-11ee-947e-24524bf233d8?shareToken=fc9849823f96a2ccf0baad189760d45b
  10. I still have some Lost Prophets music somewhere I haven't chucked out. I'll join you in the queue for Hell.
  11. We don't really know this though do we? We might think we do and to be fair there are some clues he's in a better place mentally than the 90s but really I have no idea what he gets up to when he's not on a stage or having his photo taken somewhere.
  12. Honestly yes I do think some women would. If you're already someone who has a messed up notion of sexuality and boundaries then I think it's possible to rationalise bad behaviour and abuse away in the moment -they don't tend to be people with much sense of agency. Most rapes and other non consensual acts aren't strangers in a dark alley. They happen within families, relationships, people you already know or hang out with and so on. It's why sexual abuse is so insidious but also incredibly difficult to prosecute in most cases. Rarely are people perfect victims and they don't always behave in their own best interests. You can probably times that by a lot if you're mixed up in that sort of environment and have a history of abusive relationships. I don't know this woman's history but it's well known that women who end up in porn/nude modelling/the sex trade are usually already fairly messed up in the first place and I wouldn't be shocked if this was the case here. I think her story in theory could be mostly true, technically a rape and also a crapshoot from a legal perspective.
  13. Well yes, but I think the chance of him doing that is quite low. Even if it is what actually happened and assuming he can remember after all this time. One person's life changing event can be another person's Tuesday especially as rockstar parties/coke binges/orgies by all accounts sound like they were common place in the rock heyday.
  14. Whether that's true or not it's probably the best way to play it because it will be near impossible to prove that everyone mentioned was in that location at that time 34 years ago outside of the other people involved backing up her story and it's very likely they won't whether that's because it didn't happen or for other reasons.
  15. It's a dubious account in light of this lawsuit and something that's going to be difficult to work around in a legal sense seeing as it's there in print. I think it's fairly easy to make a moral judgement on Axl's behaviour in that story but much more difficult to make a legal one. I read the paragraph about being dragged across the floor and tied up with her own clothing and thought well I can empathise how in that situation a woman, based on strength alone, doesn't have much option other than to hope it's over quickly, she's not badly harmed and can make a getaway after. Which is sometimes why women don't fight or outright say no. If it was left at that paragraph that's not too complicated a legal argument to make in her favour. However she then writes the following paragraphs that veto that argument in a legal sense. If we take the book account as absolute truth (which it may not be for reasons others have pointed out) then it sounds like a not uncommon situation of someone struggling to deal with being in abusive situations when young. Situations they only processed as abuse when older and out of those circles but wouldn't necessarily meet the evidentiary base for rape charges. It might if reported at the time have resulted in assault charges because fancying someone, being starstruck and even agreeing to sex in the first place doesn't mean battery is part of that or in anyway acceptable. It's difficult to say what impact this will have on Axl/GNR because this isn't a new story and it's remarkably similar to the assaults that Erin and Stephanie sued over. Particularly what Erin claimed happened to her. All that was in the public domain before the reunion and didn't stop anyone (myself included) buying tickets. Sometimes these things can suddenly take off years after the fact and if a number of other women were to come forward it might become a big problem. Difficult to call it at the moment because there's no shock value here - everyone knows what the rockstars of that era were like.
