Tomek1985 Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 From someone who recently interviewed Slash:You always do your homework before you interview an artist. But, before you interview Slash, you have to submit this homework to his puritan management which makes sure not one controversial question (read Axl and/or Slashs personal life) trickles to the top hat donning legend. As we anxiously awaited the ex-Guns N Roses guitarist on the 21st floor of the Taj Lands End in Bandra, we were subtly reminded once again by his tour manager, Cheryl Hall to stick to the questionnaire. http://www.pepsimtvindies.com/buzz/special/some-edm-is-better-than-others-but-for-the-most-part-it-just-annoys-me-slash-52196637.html And people talk about Guns' management.. they're both as bad as each other.I don't see any problems with having ground rules like this when he's not been in GnR for 20 years and is promoting a tour that has nothing to do with GnR.Exactly.Every interviewer in the world wants to ask him about Axl. It's like friends wanting to talk to you about your ex-girlfriend from high school twenty years ago.I wouldn't be as nice as he is with the questions list. Mine would be simple. "Any questions about Axl and the interview is immediately over."On the other hand, his legacy - Slash as a brand which is different then Saul Hudson - is associated with Axl Rose and Guns N' Roses. It's like being and actor and fighting with paparazzi. You can always change your profession. But yes, you're right, it might be annoying to always been asking the same question about the same thing. Plus he wrote his book, old times closed. When something new happens, he will let us know eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TKesseli Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Everybody knows that a simple "THERE IS NO REUNION PLANS" in any interview by either Axl, Slash or Duff, would kill these rumors once and for all.a) there is no reunion plan and they like to be in the mainstream again.b) there is a reunion plan and they cannot disclose it yet somehow.

Little EMO Annie Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Or all parties concerned could be taking a we do not negotiate with terrorists kind of approach when being forced to make a statement. The division head of PICU employs this philosophy when people ate making unreasonable demands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IncitingChaos Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 2006 Axl would blow all versions of classic GNR members away since they broke up. Nah...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nVnX0cdNhcNo no, since they broke up so since 1997 Axl in 06 was to me the best version of himself since that 1997 period. I don't think any of the other guys recaptured their presence and abilities in the same way. Point is I wish we had a reunion in 06...Axl wouldn't have been the weak link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollywood Gunner Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 if axls on a diet then maybe the announcement depends on when hes able to drop the pounds. i think slash should hit the treadmill too. i dont give a shit personally but if they look better and feel better theyll sound betterI don't understand the constant jabs at Axl's weight. He is far from obese. Aretha Franklin and Meat Loaf and even Adele are far from skinny and they all sound just fine. that wasnt a jab. so that post was uncalled for... and what i dont understand is how some people think EVERYTHING is a jab at their idol (hes mine too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like he was trying...but not even close..He was capable in 2006, but what you're looking for is Axl in the zone. This is a good example: That's 90s Axl all over again man.

Plus he wrote his book, old times closed. When something new happens, he will let us know eventually.Only to those stuck in the past. If Slash is promoting his new album then the interviewer should focus on that. Imagine a pro basketball player. Spends three years with one team and leaves after a huge contract dispute and fights with the coach. The owner of the franchise even says they regretted drafting you and that you were a cancer. Fast forward 10 years. You've had a great career with a new team. Wouldn't u get annoyed if every interview you did they asked about your old team?Not everybody wants to live in the past. Especially things that might have happened 25 years ago. And are topics that have been beaten to death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
