Circa 1994- Slash says that the original Guns N’ Roses lineup “just stopped rocking”


Recommended Posts

I feel like Slash said that in the most diplomatic way possible to explain why Izzy and Steven were no longer there. 1994 is such an interesting year where the UYI tour is over, they don't know what to do next and tensions really start to develop. Outside the early part of the year nothing really happens until SFTD around October and things don't really resume until 1995.

And that wasn't GN'R resuming.

In terms of activity and getting them in the same room yeah. They had Zakk Wylde jam with them and Izzy and Duff worked on songs that year among other things.

1994 was basically some activity in the Spring where Slash recorded stuff that was rejected by Axl & Duff and then a whole lot of nothing until they record Sympathy for the Devil.

But nothing came out of it. Instead we got Slash's Snakepit.

In terms of real progress I agree which is why everyone eventually left. Part of me wonders if they could keep it together if Axl was willing to tour at all during that period. You look at 2016-present and it seems like such a waste that we got literally no touring from 1994-1996 when Slash and Duff were still there and they were still in their prime. It was a different band that actually cared about moving things forward and not touring the same songs.
