Re: Slash Basically Blaming Axl
I would also suggest you reference statements from John Reece who was the Illusions Tour Manager and Bryn Bridenthal from Geffen Records who where there when it all went down and spoke freely of where the problems within the band came from.
I'll just say that Slash was not singled out.
Re: Slash Basically Blaming Axl
Paxcow,
Just like Axl, I never see any hard facts come from you about what the major malfunction is with Slash. Nothing but a nasty statement and then nebulous huff and puff - give us some DETAIL to back up your position.From my position, I see Slash as a man who still hangs out and works with all the old band members and on the other side I see a man who doesn't. There are articles all over the place from Izzy, Duff, Stephen and Matt that make you Axl and his posse look like the ones with the problems, not the other way 'round.
So how about a few of those FACTS huh?? If you're so sure that none of us know what we are talking about why don't you educate us?
hey, it's not my position. and the details aren't my business to tell you. let's just say that i heard what really happened with slash straight from the horse's mouth. and i believe him....
Re: Slash Basically Blaming Axl
i don't claim to be an "insider." and your constant negativity is boring.
You claim to know "people" - that makes you an "insider" whether you like it or not. I'm sorry if the negativity that is the reality of what GnR has become bores you...maybe you need to find something else to do to pass your time. Sadly, it appears the negativity is here to stay...

Ugh, I hate the term nutswinger.
It's so 2008.

Re: Slash Basically Blaming Axl
Ok then Pax,
Stephen just mentioned that the original GNR were offered €250 MILLION to re-group.
Even if this is BS, I'm sure there have been some mega offers on the table down the years.
I would be willing to bet that most offers really mean the re-uniting of Axl, Slash, Izzy and Duff with either drummer an option.
Axl has indicated that he could stomach working with Duff and he has already played with Izzy. The only one left is Slash. Which means that from your perspective you could argue that Slash's actions have blocked the others from potentially netting tens of millions of dollars for a single tour.
If Slash really was that bad to Axl and the other guys saw this, why would they not be pissed with him for causing Axl to walk away from potentially the sweetest deal of a lifetime for all of them? One tour with enough to retire.. its a fucking HUGE carrott.
Why has NOT ONE OF THEM ever publically admonished Slash for this heinous behaviour towards Axl that you claim you know of?
Who do we believe, the guys who were IN THE BAND or some nobody on a forum??

Re: Slash Basically Blaming Axl
Regarding our 'negativity' at this board.
For me it boils down to this. Most of us here love the idea of GNR - THE BAND not GNR - THE MAN.
The band dynamic is where the magic is. We don't want Trent Rose or Elton Rose we want Axl Rose and Guns N Roses. Many of us have developed deep admiratios for the old band, Bucket, Robin etc only to see them resign in utter frustration. As fans it is hard to understand what GNR actually is anymore - hence the 'negativity'. Umkay?
