Re: Axl mishears Slash and gets angry
It was obvious that paranoia was running deep on both sides even then.
That's what happens when you talk to each other than handlers/hangers-on.
That's exactly what it sounds like. Someone ran to Axl and told him that Slash told the crowd Axl needed a costume change, thus the reason for the delay. When that's clearly not what happened. Unless of course, you consider a bandage on your hand a change in costume.

Re: Axl mishears Slash and gets angry
Axl changed his costume ziliion times per shows, not to mention that sometimes he just left the stage, causing a riot. I don't see Slash's comment as anything vicious. He just told the audience not to worry, cause Axl will be back. Funny that the paranoid guy took it as an offense, although he was really changing his costume all the time. Shows that working with him how easy could have been. Axl hated even himself, so imagine what he felt for the others.
Re: Axl mishears Slash and gets angry
DEL: When you and Slash aren't at each other's throats, you're really a force to be reckoned with.
AXL: Let me say something about us being at each other's throats: We haven't really been that way in the past year and a half. I love the guy. We're like opposite poles of energy, and we balance each other out. We push each other to work harder and complement each other that way.
We had a run-in in Dayton [Ohio], because both myself and Dougie thought he said something shitty to me onstage. That was the night I cut my hand to the bone. Backstage we have monitors much like the ones onstage, and while I was back there dealing with my hand, I thought I heard him take a potshot at me. I wrapped my hand up in a towel and was like, "Let's get it taken care of, so I can finish the show."
I came back onstage and was a dick to him and told him I'd kick his fucking ass in front of 20,000 people. That was fucked up. I was wrong, and I apologized the second I realized I was mistaken. Someone who is supporting me as strongly as he does is a hand I never want to bite.
