The Night Slash Went to Axl's House

[dude69]

Did I miss it or in all of this garbage did no one post Scott Weiland's epic response to Axl? If not, here it is:

"Get in the ring. Go to the gym, motherfucker, or if you prefer, get a new wig, motherfucker. I think I'll resist the urge to 'stoop' to your level. Oh shit, here it comes, you fat, botox-faced, wig-wearin' fuck! O.K., I feel better now.

"Don’t think for a second we don't know where those words came from. Your unoriginal, uncreative little mind — the same mind that had to rely on its bandmates to write melodies and lyrics. Who's the fraud now, bitch?

"Damn, I couldn't imagine people writing for me. How many albums have you put out, man, and how long did it take the current configuration of this so-called 'band' to make this album? How long? And without the only guys that validated the name.

"How dare you! Shame on you! How dare you call our bass player 'spineless?' We toured our album over a year and a half. How many shows have you played over the last ten years? Oh, that's right — you bailed out on your long-awaited comeback tour, leaving your remaining fans feeling, shall we say, a trifle miffed?! I won't even list what I've accomplished because I don't need to. What we're talking about here is a frightened little man who once thought he was king, but unfortunately this king without his court is nothing but a memory of the asshole he once was."

Scott pretty much owned him. And frankly, I don't think any of it was incorrect. Axl is fat. Axl wore a wig. Axl used botox quite clearly. Axl took forever to put out an album and has put out 1 in 20 years. Axl is currently touring under the name that Slash, Duff, Matt, and others helped make famous.

Anyone who has heard Slash interviewed and seen how well liked he is versus Axl's crazy rants can't seriously believe that Axl doesn't at least play a major role in all this. Axl is a narcissistic child. He certainly is brilliant in many ways, but with such a trail of burned bridges, I think it is pretty safe to say that he is difficult to get along with. Constantly late to shows, has churned through two guitarists after Slash (Buckethead, Robin and presumably Bumblefoot), gone through countless managers, accused of beating his ex-wife and ex-girlfriend....shows up to concerts clearly out of shape...doesn't rehearse with the rest of the band....I mean at what point do some people actually admit that Axl has serious issues and stop making excuses for him?

It is a shame because his stubborn, narcissistic, paranoid lazy behavior prevented a really great band from doing some great things over the last 20 years.

^ Yes, but we will never know if Slash was the one who called Duff "spineless". So, I can't judge "fat, botox-faced, wig-wearin'" Axl for that comment.

Not to mention that Duff now make peace with Axl now....

and Scott pretty m8uch kicked from everywhere since then

Don't get me wrong i love this rant, but the reality is not black and white

What was it? 2 years later that Scott was saying he identified with Axl? Imagine the butthurt it would have caused if Axl had written that about anybody? People still cry about Madison at least once a month. Hypocrisy comes from every member and every fan of this band, including myself. We're fucking sad.

Anyway, carry on.

You need to stop watching porn.

That was Slash's intention.

When every one of your daily/yearly mood and thoughts that you ever expressed in writing or verbally is analysed down to its very atoms by anoraks like us, who then pass them through several conspiracy amplifiers and talk them round and round in ever tightening circles of he said/she said tit-for-tat, with all of the personal takes on things pissing into the mixture..... its no surprise both Axl & Slash come out as devils and angels all at the same time.
