I'm not. you got me with this when was this happened? i know Axl do this, but Slash? when? where? anyway it's pretty patheticSlash now has a Umami burger in his name with $1 of each burger sold going to LAYN. it's a limited run going until November 27th (coincidentally, Myles' 44th bday). honestly don't see anything "pathetic" about that. it's a limited run item for charity. Slash has been very supportive of LAYN from what I've seen in the last few years (I've really only paid attention since he started working with Myles). anyway, here's the link to the info. http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/slash-gets-his-own-burger/ Edited September 30, 2013 by uctalum01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JONEZY Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Slash probably feels the same way he's always felt about Axl. Loves him and hates him at the same time. The ball is in Axl's court now, if Axl EVER decided to get the band back together, I think Slash would be up for it. Oh well, Slash is keeping himself busy, he is always doing something. Can't say the same for Axl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmapelian Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 @volcano - well, if you don't like slash's playing on afd and uyi -- it stands to reason that you would really hate to see gnr live nowadays since their setlists are heavily geared to afd and uyi, and not so much chines democracy? No? So I was wondering what do you do to pass the time when they play slash's shitty shit since you never listen to afd or uyi? Or do you just suck it and pretend to like it?

Intercourse Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Slash is rich and ack being successful. Hs gigs are getting as big as GNRs in some territories, he is playing better than ever, he's sober, healthy, happily married with two nice kids who he enjoys being a Dad too. Now he's into films...he won't answer Axl questions..so..Is he bothered with Axl? Would you be with all that good stuff in your life? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR DOOM Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Guys please, his body recognised his brain as a tumour and rejected it- its sad really.As for Slash, he's doing fine- both parties are always going to be asked about the other so the subject will always be on the horizon but I don't think it bothers him so much.

WarpedFX Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Why wouldn't he put the "no axl questions" thing on his interviews? Can you imagine being asked the same fucking question every time?? lol. With him and the conspirators as it is I don't think he really cares too much about axl at the current point. He's happy playing with myles and that's really that as far as he's concerned I'd gather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damn_Smooth Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 (edited) I agree that it was Slash's own choice to sign the name over. But it was Axl who was a dictatorial jerk during his whole tenure in Guns N' Roses. Even before they were signed. The late starts, the no-shows, the cancelled shows. You are telling me you wouldn't be pissed off with your signer if he did that?LOL. He should learn to accept his own decisions if he's mad at Axl because he was stupid enough to sign over the name.Probably. Slash probably looks back at Axl being a fucken deceiving dictator by coercing him and Duff to sign the name over. It stopped being about friendship then and there. Also Axl's bullshit antics like the latestarts and cancelling shows would have pissed him off to no extent. In a way, Slash was smart for leaving that sinking ship. I mean, since Slash has left(15 years ago?), Guns N' Roses as an entity have put out one fucking album... One...As Slash has stated numerous times, he signed over the name because he believed if the band were to break up it wouldn't matter who had the name.Regardless of whether he was right or wrong in his decision to do so, in hindsight, he was absolutely right. Picture GNR circa 87-93. Then picture GNR 2001-2013.Sure. The name has allowed Axl to sell out certain SA shows, but the majority's consensus is that GNR has been dead for a long, long time.Apparently you don't realize where Slash is at. I'd love to let you live in the ignorant bliss that you currently enjoy, but reality beckons. Even at the height of VR, they never matched New Guns' touring numbers. They can have all the record sales (in 2004 vs 2008, Derp!) in the world, a band makes money off of touring. It's needless to even mention Slash's solo career in both record sales and touring, so I'll leave that humiliation alone.Actually, I realize exactly where Slash is. And from where I stand, he's done pretty damn well since his GNR days. I'm not a huge fan of the man's musical endeavors outside of GNR, but despite this, he's been ranked the #2 guitar player of all time, only behind Hendrix. He can make solo albums and have just about any singer that he wants to do guest spots. He's found some level of success in VR, and now he's producing films. He's Slash; probably the most distinct and popular guitar player of our time. New GNR touring numbers are hit n miss, depending on how you wish to spin an argument. As I stated, Axl being able to call his tribute band GNR has allowed him to sell out certain markets at times, mainly outside of the US. I'm sure you'd rather that I not use the states as a benchmark -and for obvious reasons - but Axl now has to resort to "UCAP" shows and Vegas Residencies. Nothing wrong with that, but nothing great either. Sure, he can go back down to South America whenever he wishes and still pull decent numbers, but aside from that, what? He's done virtually nothing near what Slash has done to maintain relevancy, despite having the GNR umbrella to help him.On topic, I think Slash would have loved to have went back to GNR sometime between 2005-2008. Since that time, I don't think he would want to even with the tempting reunion offers. Personally, I'm sure he thinks Axl is a lunatic and I believe when he says that he's over it. It's just not something he would want to revisit when considering Axl's ways.Unfortunately, for someone like me who really loved the real GNR, it really blows that the situation is what it is.Yeah, you haven't reached the true pinnacle of success in the U.S. until you've headlined Ribfest, right?I agree that it was Slash's own choice to sign the name over.

Unfortunately for your statement, I wouldn't have spent the last week on "vacation" if I was swinging on Axl's nuts.

Guest Len B'stard Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I think Slash couldn't give a flying fuck and hasn't for a while, with the exception of the HOF thing which at the time might've dug some shit up. He seems more or less embarassed by questions about Axl these days. Or rather the last time i saw him answer em, which was a few months after his autobio came out.Honestly, I don't think either MILLIONAIRE ROCK LEGEND is too worried about the other guy.I've probably thought about this more than Slash.probably closer to the truth than anything.spot on.

OmarBradley Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Why is this thread still going? Its all conjecture, and the answer is fairly obvious (noted plenty of times in this thread). Slash is doing his own thing, and succeeding at it, he doesn't care. Move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
