DownUnderScott Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 That wanker Mick Wall is at it again. I was at work flicking through a recent local magazine called Style ( Here in south of Brisbane, Australia) which describes itself as a 'Prestige Lifestyle magazine', when I came across an article entitled "rocking on" with a picture of Mick Wall. Anyway, the article is to promote his latest book - Appetite for Destruction: Legendary Encounters with Mick Wall - Yep, thats right - real fuckin' original that one Mick...In the article he talks about his journalist days and associating with the big names of Rock. Of course it doesnt take long before he is mentioning Axl. Anyway, this is a part of what he is quoted as saying -"I'd kind of outgrown the idea of humouring guys like Axl" ."Instead of managing the situation and holding his hand and smoothing it over, I just totally told him to fuck off".He later goes on to add - "If I had anything to say about him at this point it would be that I genuinely feel for him now... When you're in your late 40s you do have to come to terms with the fact that you're not 25 anymore."And a bit later his parting shot at Axl is - "But here he is, this poor, deluded guy with his hair extensions and his lipo and Botox and endless servants".Will this guy ever stop shamelessly using Axl to make a buck ???

ppruks Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 exactly, do not buy that crappy book of his, it's not worth it, even if you're curious, just read it in the bookstore, that's what I did, I read through every single book they had at the bookstore about guns, the only ones that I bought were slash's book and canter's book, i was writing a paper on guns, using Slash' s book as a primary source and trying to find contradictions, so I tried to go through as many books/magazines from the 80s/90s, fanpages, videos, interviews as humanly possible, including the newest book by davis, which had a few interesting things, but nothing too special, took me 10 weeks to do all that, and I gotta say that Wall's book is probably the poorest of them all, I'd buy Slash's book just for the fun things he describes, but I wouldn't take the things he says for gold..but that's a whole other story, but yeah, mick wall is a complete douchebag and a very bitter man, I listened to his interviews when CD came out, he probably cries at night cause he's on Axl's shitlist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

axlsend Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Jealousy is a terrible emotion.Mick just can't hack the fact that most people couldn't care less about him where thousands of people are attending GnR gigs at the moment!Mick, you ain't special so who you fooling?, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The less attention he gets and less money he makes, the better.Agree. The best one can do is to ignore this retard and, it is in situations like this one when we need a jarmo. If all the topics about this idiot disappeared he woulnd´t get any attention from the GNR fans (we are probably the ones who know who this loser is and the few ones who bother reading his crap).

steveysham Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 hope he gets done for libel some day. For a journalist he's very careless with words and some day it's going to get him in trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Len B'stard Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 I think its very atypical and sort of a cocksuck to immediately dismiss the possibility of the validity of some of his statements being that we don't any of us really know Axl, like most things in life i don't think its ever a case of completely wrong on one side and completely right on the other, it'd be wilfully ignorant to immediately dismiss the possibility of validity because Axl does, on the face of things at any rate, display certain boy in the bubble like tendencies. Who knows, i don't think its terribley important either except for the man himself and it certainly isn't any of my business, i just think there's something a little lame, boring and immature about everybody kinda wading in here and taking a shot at Mick Wall just because Axl doesn't get along with him, i mean have some dignity for chrissakes, Axl takes a step, y'all file in behind him, c'mooonn He's a grown man with a probably more than sizeable bank account, i'm sure doesn't need this sycophantic fawning...and truth be told it makes you look bad, have a little more respect for your respective souls please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
