madison Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Interesting read. But I find the whole "Perla" excuse to be - well, an excuse. And one that doesn't make any sense. Afterall, Perla never tried to stop Slash from reuniting with Axl - in fact, it was the opposite. She wanted them to mend fences. She was the one who pushed Slash to go to Axl's home that chilly October morning in 2005 to try to resolve their differences. Unfortunately, it was Beta who met Slash at the door - and so he never got to talk to Axl. In light of what's happened in the last couple of years, it makes one wonder if the two might have reunited years earlier if Slash had been able to talk to Axl that day. Anyway, my point is - I don't understand why people think they reunited because Perla was out of the picture. … The only other situation that might make sense - is if Slash was planning to divorce Perla and didn't want her getting any of the cash from a reunion tour. Then, there might be some logic in Slash waiting until the divorce was finalized before doing a reunion tour. But I find it hard to believe that Axl refused to talk to Slash all these years simply because he was married to Perla. Just doesn't make sense.

Cause some of those pictures are Marc's they have to have permission to use them? I don't think so. They'd probably be able to claim that their usage of Marc's photos is Fair Use in this case. The rules aren't exactly the same in the USA and UK but generally if a photo is used for editorial purposes (news reporting, commentary, etc.) they can claim Fair Use and use it without permission. IIRC they released some photos from the book for press use originally, too. The photo of Marc in the restaurant is credited to 20story...looked them up and they don't appear to be associated with the newspaper.

Even their books weren't all that accurate, especially Slash's, but I think drugs had more to do with that than anything else. We'll get more of this story someday I'm sure, probably even a few versions of it. I think Axl's book will be more accurate.... if He publish it... I remember in 2001 interview Izzy told the interviewer tht when He called Axl, Axl asking Izzy the reason He's leaving the Band, Izzy told His reason N' Axl tell something about Their past N' when He's on the phone, He heard like sound of Axl turning pages. It seems like its Axl's notepad, N' maybe He write some past event N' conversation on tht note Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desperate I guess Yeah, I think we've had instances here where it was obvious that the news media was just lifting information they found here, but this one is pretty sad. And underhanded...I really can't imagine that Marc would have gone to that sort of tabloid, but they made it seem as though he just sat right down with them and spilled all the beans.

I'd love to read Axl's take on everything, especially now that he's reconciled with Slash and Duff and might be able to approach it from that perspective. IMHO it would also be great if they did something like "The Dirt." Motley Crue isn't my favorite band, but what I loved about that book was that it gave all the band members the chance to tell the same story from their own perspectives. Reading those different perspectives -- which often didn't match up, or had differing opinions --really gave a fuller picture of the band. If Axl, Slash and Duff did something like that, where they each independently wrote chapters for the same book. I think it would be intriguing to read the results.

Very damaging. Daily Mail is a xenophobic piece of crap. Awful newspaper. A journalist from this trashy paper forced one of the Wachowski boys to come out as a transgender sooner than he/she intended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might do if Perla was a madam or Heidi Fleiss type character. Thats something Ive picked up not sure that is the case. Axl might take issue with that in some way?

Axl_morris Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Interesting. I knew there had to be comminication for the vegas DVD. It was delayed for so long, I never knew Axl had to sign off the roxy show though. Perhaps "Rockfuel" added the fuel to the fire to get this ball rolling?

stella Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 It's been hypothesized here before that Slash and Axl waited to announce anything or give any hints of reunion until the divorce was finalized so the money from the reunion would not be counted as community property(which would have meant that Perla would have taken 50% of it) -- the timeline actually matches that, because Slash mentioned he was talking to Axl right around the time his house went on sale (which would indicate the court stuff was done). Other than that I just can't imagine that Perla factors into any of this. She seems to have hooked up with Slash in the late 1990s, he and Axl weren't even talking at that point.

Billbailey702 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 can't be true we all know Steven Tyler is the one responsible for the reunion by just telling axl the world misses you two. All jokes aside side fun read. Duff is the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
