Karice Posted December 31, 2023 Author Share Posted December 31, 2023 My World song is actually pretty funny! 🤣 At first, I was APPALLED when I heard My World a, 😱😳and I asked Guns N'Roses Fans why Axl made a song that was so appalling. 😱😳 Some responses were like,"Axl was not in a good space mentally or emotionally when Use Your Illusions Albums were released. " Other responses were like,"Use Your Illusions Part 2 is a VERY depressing album and My World alleviates a LOT of the depressing album that is Use Your Illusions Part 2. Axl shows off his playful, hilarious,"I don't give a fuck!" Side when he released My World, as if saying,"What a drag Use Your Illusions Part 2 REALLY is! Time for some fun with My World!"🤣 And it works. 🤣 "When the Fans put it in that perspective, I saw the humor in My World! 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post SoulMonster Posted December 31, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 31, 2023 (edited) There are so many funny GN'R moments, most of the bizarre variety or just tragicomic: - Axl insisting they would sign with Chrysalis if Susan Collins would walk naked down Sunset. She didn't, and they had already decided to go with Geffen anyway. - Fargin Bastydges! to get around Geffen's playing ban. Basically GN'R under a new name. - The planted rumor that Axl hated poodles and wanted to kill them. Allegedly, that was Niven's plan to get more press. - "Hurt? He fucking will be if I find him!" Axl's reaction to Andy Hurt's review of one of the Marquee shows. The review itself is hilarious. - Izzy peeing at the manager's desk at the Hammerjacks in Boston. Izzy did quite a bit of controlversial peeing. - Tommy Lee teabagging a passed out Slash. Allegedly, pictures exist. - Izzy's paranoia with banks resulting in him carrying all is money, about $750,000, as a cashier's check in his sock. It also caused him to stock up on guns. - Izzy claiming there are "no chemical dependencies in Guns N' Roses" in November 1987, and Slash's "we don’t use drugs, and we really never have" in October 1988. - Steven OD'ing and only barely being able to get to the filming of the funeral scene in Dead Pool, which was about a guy who had died from an OD. - Axl fighting skinheads, David Bowie, parking attendants, paparazzi, neighbors, hotel guards, band members, etc. - Izzy passing out from taking all his drugs when they are to fly to Japan. Allegedly, had to be carried out of the plane and into his hotel. Came to his sense the next day or so and didn't know ehere he was until he saw the small people in the streets. - The failed attempt at staying incognito in Chicago in 1989. In all, the Chicago trip was a huge mess but the half-assed attempt at being anonymous was the only slightly funny about it. - Izzy peeing on the plane earning him the nickname Whizzy. - Axl's feud with Vince Neil which was just pathetic. A lot of media posturing that didn't really result in anything. - Steven resurrecting Road Crew after getting fired from GN'R, then getting fired from Road Crew (because of drugs). It was also a bit funny that he thought he could just take the band name from Slash. - Sam Kinison trying to strangle Slash when Slash didn't come to Las Vegas. Duff came to the rescue and saved Slash. - Axl's wacko beliefs, like "high-tuned vitamins", regression therapy and exorcism. Funny but also sad how he was exploited by schemers around him. - The nadir of Steven's career when he was forced to tour with a GN'R tribute band to finish his Adler's touring dates (after the rest of the band splitting due to Steven's drug use). - The cover to Duff's Believe In Me. It features a skeletal version (of course, always a skeleton) of Duff sitting in a cocktail glass while partying with smokes and drinks. There are some flames in the background, because, you know, flames are cool, and then the title is written in a very ugly, amateurish font. The conception could have been made by a 12 year-old-boy, and also the execution. Did Duff okay this? Did he think it was great in a non-ironic way? Or was he so wasted he didn't care or even see it? - Goldstein's letter to Axl. Basically, everything by Goldstein after he got fired is comedy. Like when he claimed if he had been in charge the Not In This Lifetime tour would have done 5 times better than it did. Anyway, the letter is a scary look into hos his mind operates, or how he thinks Axl minds operates. Just a sopping sycophantic, rambling mess. - Buckethead. Just everything about him. Like when he hid from GN'R and thought they were sending undercover cops after him. And of course the chicken coop. And never taking his mask off in front of his band mates, even sunbathing in Rio with the mask on. You can't really make these things up. - Slash's infidelities causing him to get handcuffed to a bed and needing police assistance. Also the public sex a the Scrap Club involving pasta and Slash's frantic attempts at lying about it to save his relationship with Renee. - Steven getting high during filming of Sober Living, a show to follow ex-addicts road back to society. I don't have time to list more, maybe later. Edited January 1 by SoulMonster 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karice Posted January 6 Author Share Posted January 6 I laughed when Slash saying something like,"I was high on drugs and was naked in my hotel room. I thought some dark spirits were chasing me, so I freaked out and ran out the hotel room naked and scared, running from nothing! I ended up running over a cleaning lady!" 🤣 I(Karice) stopped laughing when Slash continued,"The cleaning lady tried to press charges on me for sexual assault!" 😱 Oh shit ! 😱 I breathed a sigh of relief when Slash continued, "The charges were dropped". 😌 Slash continued something like,"I don't blame the cleaning lady for trying to press charges. I was a long haired naked man who ran her over! 💡 I laughed at Slash saying that Axl threw himself out of a moving vehicle when he was told not to sleep on Slash's Grandmother's couch. Axl did anyway and was told to apologize to the Grandma for sleeping on the couch when he was told not to. Axl instead threw himself out of a moving vehicle so he wouldn't have to apologize to the Grandma! 🤭 Oh Axl! 🤭 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ericstacey Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I think this was during the ending credits of the Making of the Estranged video I had on VHS, Slash and Duff called Teddy Zig Zag on the phone and tried to get him to come out drinking or go to a strip club (I can't remember which), Teddy said no, they still tried pleading to no avail-they ended the call, and I think Slash said something like "this shows what few friends we really have" lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have been REALLY bad if this were AXL who turned them down. 💡 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I consider myself a pacifist and overall a "mellow" fella, but I think of this guy - and I feel anger.

I just assumed that Teddy was just a civil Bandmate and not a Friend that would want to hang out with them when it isn't work related.

Karice Posted January 9 Author Share Posted January 9 A female fan of Axl's runs up on stage and wildly embraces Axl. Axl "hugs," her back but it's more of holding onto her so she doesn't make him fall. Security escorts the female fan away. Axl has a stunned,"What the fuck was that? 😱😳😬🥶🤨😯🥴 Expression on his face. 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
