He downgraded him from a cancer to an embarrassing rash.Well thats probably Axl making a nice comment lol..On a serious note though, fair enough maybe Axl doesn't make many nice comments about Slash but i still agree with the rest of the statement i madeIts fine Slash said a nice statment about Axl, but he does seem to change his story alot IMO one minute he saying Axl is great the next hes saying Axl is sad and bitterat least Axl is a bit more consistent about his feelings of Slash, sometimes a bit harsh with some comments but thats just Axl for you.I still think it would be a mistake for Axl and Slash to come together again at this moment in time, i don't think much good would come from itI think some people are under the impression that if they 'reunite' then it will be all magic again but their annimosity and hatred towards each other has festered for to long and their just bitter towards each otherFor the time being i think its best the stay their seperate ways and carry on with thier own lives.

Black Horse Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 This need of appearing cool and nice at all cost is a bit tiring. That is what Slash does imo, he always wants to be the cool guy, the nicer one and these comments about how Axl is great and bla bla bla show how much he cares about appearing that way at the eyes of everybody. Because, you know, Axl is the asshole, the tantrum boy, the dictator... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salx Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 ????? Am I the only one that thinks Slash's "great," "admirable," "respectable" comments were nothing but pure horse shit? I think he says things like this to do nothing more than piss Axl off. After Slash pipes up with his usual "Oh yeah, Axl's great..." comments (that he KNOWS will get some bit of media attention, and thus his comments will eventually get back to Axl) to a large audience, everybody is all surprised and it's not uncommon to hear things afterward like, "Wow, see? Slash really does have respect for Axl. What a class act!" and "See! Axl really needs to move on and forgive..." However, as Axl told us himself, behind closed doors it is a MUCH different story than what everyone is used to. My guess is that to this day, the bullshit lawsuits and time consuming litigation rage on. Slash is probably responsible for Axl having to jump through many hoops to be able to give the concerts that he does, sell the merch that they do, etc. etc. etc. Bottom line: Slash loves to try and piss Axl off by making himself out to be such a saint, when only the opposite is true. I'm sorry, but I see right through Slash.That's one stupid comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, he is passive-aggressive, snake in the grass that likes to appear "cool" and play the victim, changing stories when it suits him. I don't believe a word he says.

No doubt, he tells you exactly what you want to hear. its all too convenient. but i cant blame him, he is playin the game. just cause axl has decided to go rogue it doesnt mean slash has to. but slash, pick your spots dude, for the love of god. have some discretion.

shootingstar Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 (edited) Translation......Axl's greatness = long gone.Yeah...you would totally keep saying that if there was a reunion.In 2002 his voice was pretty nasal, in 2006 it was hit & miss, in 2010 it's "fucking great". I agree with you except for the "fucking great" part. It's better, but I wouldn't call it fucking great.From the stuff I've seen he sounds pretty good, but it seems like he can't hold notes for very long,etcActually, you're not just telling us your opinion, but it's totally incorrect. He hold notes longer than ever.. his screams are longer than ever. Your describe his voice back in 92-93 where he had short erruptions of power yet short ones. Maby you only heard oh.. oh oh sweet child of miiiine? Wher he do the "oh" in a short cut. But thats the only example out of 25. And don't reffer to the last concert where he clearly had his voice worned out. Edited March 15, 2010 by shootingstar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because, you know, Axl is the asshole, the tantrum boy, the dictator... That's exactly how I see this. I will always like Slash but after reading his book, it seemed pretty obvious to me that he likes to look good in the public eye at all cost. Sometimes I just have a hard time believing him... I find him a bit hypocrite. Axl on the other hand may be "brutally honest" according to Slash, but I prefer that to someone who will only say what he thinks people want to hear.

In short his head got too big for his hat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
