Axl in Hawaii

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=827275190713754&set=p.827275190713754&type=3

I met axl rose when I went to Hawaii was the nicest guy I ever met i was 16 years old he even let me take his picture it's his mom and dad he holding up!!

 

(Person's post comes with a photo!)

 

 

For those of you having trouble interpreting the photo of Axl's photo of his parents, I added some green outlines so you can see how the figures are posed. (click on the facebook source to see the full photo with Axl included)

 

huh, i find it kind of interesting that he traveled around with a photo of his parents, considering they didn't really have the best relationship.

 

i always thought this photo was from Erin's collection. that's something new to know!

Ritz 1988, Ritz 1987

first video 0:07, is he waving to a stranger passing by????

the packaging design looks so sketchy... AFD boxset was much better 

They should just release it on a random year random date with no prior notice, that way it's a big surprise for everyone and we're all happy.

thats insane coma gets the least votes

CD is better than UY1 for sure

I think when Axl retires there’s a chance we’ll see a few of his interviews, and perhaps he publish an autobiography.

Highly doubt if he'll ever make one.

But Axl did argue that the he didn't mean to insult all black people and that his previous homophobia was a result of past experiences. He also said that the song came out much more forceful than intended. Furthermore, he knew the lyrics would be controversial and apologized on the cover of GNR Lies for generalizing and would apologize again later. Lastly, he would also claim he had changed and that the backlash has caused him to read up on black history. Because of all this, the song was never played again live (after the four, or so, initial live appearances) and Axl considered pulling it off the record but eventually decided that art came first even though he knew that would just cause him to be more criticized.

Axl from the RIP interview in 1992: "l wrote a song that was very simple and vague. (...)l think I showed that quite well from where l was at. The song most definitely was a survival mechanism. It was a way for me to express my anger at how vulnerable l felt in certain situations that had gone down in my life. It's not a song l would write now. The song is very generic and generalized, and I apologized for that on the cover of the record. Going back and reading it, it wasn't the best apology but, at the time, it was the best apology I could make."

I can tell Axl didn't mean it. He was similar to those furious and abrasive teens who always put labels on others and throw shades on anyone they don't like. His views on race and stuff were so personal and immature at the time he wrote the lyrics. People should never take those words seriously. And it's good that he actually apologized afterwards  

wait how come ppl vote out SCOM in Round 6... i thought it would survive till last 3..

jungle the GOAT!!!

Why do people hate his braids??? I thought it’s fairly okay

Pele u should arrange a street fight with axl in person

wonder the actual sales of AFD box set over the past three and a half years....
