#1391 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » SLASH's Next Album To Feature MYLES KENNEDY Handling All Vocals - Nov. » 833 weeks ago
I'm really excited that they will work together again, as they seem to love to play together and it can inspire writing a lot. But I'd want some fellow bandmates there, not some Josh 'I only want the cash' Freese-type of session musicians. People who can create, at least their own parts, cause Slash's solo album really lacks a good rhythm section, and a complementer second guitarist, too.
I'd also like to hear some other singers with Slash, but I think that'll happen on his third solo record - which will come out sooner, than the third VR.

Slash has never said anything close to implying he was Guns N' Roses. Axl is the one who cannot accept that Salsh is just as much Guns N' Roses for the world, as he is. Axl is the one who acted and acts like he'd be Guns N' Roses.
Slash named Axl as the one who ruined the band though, but ALL te other guys did the same. Maybe there is some truth in it.

Rubbish dude.
It amazes me how people want to pin Axl's media rep on slash when it dates from back into the day when they were still buddies. I'd place the following things above anthing slash has ever said:
* St Louis Riot
* Every Late Start
* Every on stage rant that adds to his angry man image
* Telling key media figures to "suck his fucking dick"
* knocking out photographers at the airport
* Going recluse for the better part of 10 years
You are absolutely right. A little time travel:

Had Slash called Axl a cancer, when the red one lost his mother back in the mid 90s, Axl would have blacklisted him for another thousand years and it would be the ace in the HTGTH zealots cards.
I'm sorry, but talking about your problems with someone, or abusing him with disgusting and very hurtful words are two different things. As sensitive as Axl is, he's the biggest asshole ever when it comes to others' feelings.
#1395 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » Axl Rose playing drums with Matt! » 833 weeks ago
You've obviously missed parts of my posts, where I mentioned that I really appreciate some of his songs, but his albums are very boring for me OVERALL. Colma is a good chill out record or what, and songs like Hog Bitch Stomp or Whitewash are amazing.
But as Axlin said, he's really hit or miss, and he's mostly miss. He's a very technical player and has released zillions of albums, but he'd need to learn how to sort out the good ideas and throw out the garbage. Also, he'd need to work more on his songs.

Bumblefoot is a better technical guitarist than Zakk.
Not to start a war, but I get tired of hearing how great Zakk is because he can do the same boring pinch harmonics over and over mantra.
He's not even the 2nd best guitarist to share a stage with Ozzy.
I love Zakk, but he is overrated vastly, specifically by people on this board.
Same goes for BH. The guy is untouchable for some here: anyone can criticize Axl or Slash or anyone else, but when it comes to BH, it's heresay. I don't think BH would be that unique or talented or even fast that he'd be 'light years ahead' of the ones like Zakk or John Petrucci. It's the BH Religion here without any proof. I really don't see the uber-strong creativity on BH's part - he found out great things, but light years behind dozens of guitarists.
(Bumblefoot is great and fast and anything, but he has no music personality, while BH, Zakk, Petrucci does Slash does have.)

#1398 Re: Guns N' Roses » GnR Band Member Interviews from 2009-10 Tour » 834 weeks ago
After the Haitian earthquake, Axl felt Slash was misleading people over the band reuniting for a Haitian relief effort. Whatever it was, something went on behind the scenes that none of us were ever privied to.
Axl just dropped the comment, and that was that. Frankly, I don't even remember exactly what he said. It was a moment were we all went "that's... strange", and then moved on with no resolve.
No. Axl didn't name anyone, just wrote a vague comment as usual. It made a lot of people think he directed it to Slash though. Later it turned out that it was Madison.
#1399 Re: Guns N' Roses » BUMBLEFOOT: Don't Hold Your Breath For New GUNS N' ROSES Album - Nov. » 834 weeks ago
People really think we're ever getting more Guns N' Roses music?
More new music under the name Guns N' Roses? Yes. But soon is not the word.
I don't hold my breath or anything, since CD didn't convince me - but I still follow Axl, cause he's extremely talented, but even more crazy, paranoid, bitter and insecure.

A brief tour in 2011, silence in the rest of the year and 2012, then something will be happening in 2012... maybe. If everything goes as planned, the planets are in the right constallation and Axl got his new crystal ball.
