Re: Tim Palmer's two days on CD
Axl knows he has the trump card with Slash, which is what the label has wanted all along, right? Axl is King Dick and he knows it. Look at the shows, have you ever seen him this smug and happy?
This
Axl's got a J.R.-grin all day long, and I haven't seen him this happy since the early days of AFD, when the band finally started getting recognized and MTV was so far up his ass that he was telling them openly he was a cuckold on live TV, and they championed what a bad ass rock n' roller he was.
Axl's sittin' in the cat bird's seat, and he knows it. He's fronting 2/3 of the only stadium rock acts left, making the biggest paycheck of his life, walked out the door one day and became the biggest rock star in the world again after what amounts to a 23-year nap, people have instantly forgave him of all his transgressions dating back to 1988 and OIAM, simply because Slash is back, and what else.... the pussy and ass he's hitting just got hotter & younger?
The guy has it fucking made right now, and makes 50% of the take right off the top. WITH Slash involved. The brand name that was his burden in the years after 1993, has become the single biggest protector of him, and is finally NOW appreciating and the money is rolling in. Its a J.R. deal if I ever saw one.
But like J.R., the only man big enough to take down Axl Rose... is Axl Rose.
He should be smart. Show up on time. Keep his mouth shut. Stay FAR away from controversy. Lead the private life if he has too. And Slash & Duff can record on the old vault, music Axl recorded 15 years ago and saved for a rainy day will be released without him lifting a finger.
And the money will keep rolling in. Keep Slash happy.
But any false steps, any ill-timed comments... everything will be HIS fault. And they will turn on him like a rabid dog.
