bacardimayne Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 What will they say next year when Axl plays Ribfest? I for one will find it just as hilarious as when Slash played it. I'm hardly an Axl defender at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhazUp Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 (edited) Yeah, they were a huge success, thanks EXCLUSIVELY to Scott, right lolcano? That's right. Take away Scott and you have a Poison like 80's cover band. Do what now? Take away Scott and what you're left with is 3 strong members of the UYI crew. 2 ExamplesLet's say Axl is fired from GNR in 1994 -We would have 8 GNR albums of 80's cock rockAn unknown singer joins VR -We would not have Scott's alternative and experimental influence..hence we get 80's cock rockWell the thing is we have VR demos out there that pre-date Scott. I can't say I am personally blown away by them but they definitely are not 80's cock rockAs for the hypothetical GNR situation for me it is too much of a "what if" to really have it hold much argumentative substanceFor me I would make the point that VR, just like GNR back in the day, was a musical collective and never rested solely on the musicality of one person Edited November 28, 2013 by WhazUp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn_Smooth Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 It's amazing how Slash plays much smaller venues than NuNu and still is this Rock Icon everyone loves and talks about. Kudos to Slash!That's what happens when you whore yourself out to the media. And before your panties get bunched up about this one, I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with that. Most normal musicians do it. Too bad it hardly translates into revenue though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
