SerenityScorp Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 By AxlCole on Axl & Duff interview "1. When and where Axl and Slash met face to face after so many years " I have the answer to that. Someone I know spoke to Slash backstage at one of the shows and according to him, the first voice-to-voice contact was made with Axl calling Slash. The first face-to-face contact was then made with Slash going to Axl's house for dinner. All this Slaxl moment ~ Axl made the first call He probably invite Slash for dinner in His house 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this Slaxl moment ~ Axl made the first call He probably invite Slash for dinner in His house Not sure how believable the source is, thinking how many comments on the internet start with: i know someone who met, etc ... and turned out to be made out of thin air. Axl probably made the first call because Duff asked him too ... all those things happened because of Duff, doubt Axl would have picked up the phone to call Slash if it wasnt for Duff interventing ... But if this is true, then it must have been kinda awkward for Slash, sitting around the Table with Axl, and the whole Lebais-Family - people who constantly hated on him, etc .. - ... and i am 100% sure that Axls 'family' was at that dinner too, as they never leave him alone ...

They were reduced to playing tiny venues. So, like @Jane M. was saying earlier. They have no problem in being friends when it benefits their careers. Axl is definitely not stupid, and knows full well GNR is a stadium act with Slash in the band. Fantastic for all of us fans though. I'm glad fake GNR couldn't hack it in the end and Axl knew he had to call mr top hat 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying that's *why* he's doing it but it's certainly possible that it's not just for the sake of sitting weird... Wasn't talking about the leg.

Padme Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 6 hours ago, ACDC8 said: Ladies, jump to the "Axl and Duff interview" topic for more details, but apparently this was told by Axl - behind the scenes - to the Brazilian journalist: "…the rock star told that his life is totally controlled by a family of Brazilians from Santos, SP...." Axl's words, according to the article: “This Brazilian family controls my life, whips me and forces me to do things” joked the singer... Sure he is "joking" but between the lines our thoughts have been confirmed... Poor Axl. I read it. I think Axl meant to be sarcastic about it 48 minutes ago, SerenityScorp said: Btw, about Yoda, is beta the one who recommend Her to Axl or Axl the one who hires Her after He heard/read about Her from Someone/somewhere? Axl begun this whole regression therapy/ Yoda BS around 89. There is a RS interview from that year I believe. And also Duff talks about it in his book. Axl met Beta in 1991 when he met Stephanie. So Beta didn't recond him Yoda. Unfortunately Beta didn't help Axl later on. It's a shame she didn't do anything to cut that crap. But nobody else around Axl didn't do much either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For sure there was a lot of pre-work done by the time the phone call occurred. Not only at a personal level by Duff who had been talking with both of them, but also at a business level by managers, promoters, entertainment business analysts etc, until Axl decided "ok, let's call him to see if we can work something out" (and Slash was waiting for his phone to ring). 2 hours ago, MillionsOfSpiders said: I think Axl called Slash because guns n roses were not doing well with that line up.

Yes, probably Axl realized that NuGuns had run its course and it was going nowhere, so maybe he sees the reunion, as long as it can last (he said he wants it to last for a while) as closure. And it's a good one; he plays stadiums again, CD songs are more legitimized as part of the GnR history with Slash playing them, and, most importantly, he seems genuinely happy 1 hour ago, Padme said: Axl begun this whole regression therapy/ Yoda BS around 89.

Duff says in his book that when they were in studio recording UYI Axl came to him telling a lot of bullshit about past life. Also according to Erin, Axl was already into that past life stuff when they were still married. It's in the People Magazine interview from 1994.

It was 1990 then, because I think they hadn't done serious UYI recordings during 1989 apart from the sessions in Chicago in most of which Axl wasn't present.

tiutso Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 This thread is thoroughly lacking in weirdness, lately. No one's even coming around to hate on it. How about I take the weirdo prize away from @Andy14 by saying I just noticed that, in a certain gif of a young Axl in profile, he's smiling and his smile is creepily resemblant of Taylor Swift's.

Asia Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Quote After 30+ years, many interviews, documentaries and books, I think it's safe to say none of the AFD 5 liked each other. Which is why Slash said a million times that he loves Axl, Axl said quite a few times that he loves Slash and called their relationship a real marriage, Slash, on the other hand, called his relationship with Axl the closest and longest in his life, probably also for this reason Axl wanted to buy a house together with Slash and was in depression for 20 years after the person he never even liked left him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
