Snowmass Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 Marc- 1st off, thanks for doing the 'Canter Banter'. It's awesome. What did you think of last weeks Axl interview in USA Today? Specifically- Songwriting slump: Supermodel girlfriend Stephanie Seymour and original Guns guitarist Slash and bassist Duff McKagan "did more damage to my ability as a writer. To those three, it was all crap. It beat me down so much. At the time of the (Use Your Illusion) tours, Slash and Duff said, 'You're an idiot, you're a loser.' I didn't write for years. I felt I was hindered for a very long time. I was also trying to figure out what I wanted to say, when it's right to be venting and when you're digging a bigger hole. Lyrics on Chinese took a long time."
Freddie Mercury's Ghost Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 Seconding this question. I had never heard about Duff degrading Axl like Axl alleged here.Was it just part of Duff being an alcoholic at the time?
recklessroad Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 I was not on tour with the band so I don't know what was being said between them at the time. There was a lot of Chaos going on at the time with the band. I do like the fact that Axl he speaking his mind. The more he has to say the less he will carry on his shoulders
