#1841 Re: Guns N' Roses » Interesting part of Axl's February Del James interview » 895 weeks ago
I'm generally blamed for the time it took to release 'Illusions,' but...
We hear you Axl and we're very impressed with how you sped up the album making process later on CD. It really proves you right.
not finding a way to manage Slash complete with his addictions and bring both him and Izzy together either similar to 'Appetite' or in some other progression more conducive to Guns than how 'Illusions' was accomplished. Unfortunately, that never truly happened, and both Guns and the public suffered for it.
That's true, although as far as I know Izzy (in his mind) quit Guns long before the UYIs, so he was AWOL.
But as far as I know GN'R still suffers of the same problem, since the guitars on the last album are still "far" from each other. The guys don't play together, they don't complement each other, just some guitar themes in the same tone (except Robin, of course) are mixed together.
I'll take the responsibility in the sense that had I known how to achieve those goals we would have made what I feel would've been a more effective and powerful album at the time.
We hear you again. So had you known it earlier, you would have been even meaner and harsher towards the other guys. Typical Axl. The only time he admits his responsibility is when he feels he was too good and not hard enough. I'm sick of this crap. C'mon Axl, you stated that the UYIs would have been better without Slash. You lost all your credibility then.

I just hope there's room for at least one unique instrumental.
I doubt it, but that'd be good. I bought that Les Paul Tribute album for Vocalise only. A song of the same caliber would be killer.

We've heard about sooo many singers, I wouldn't be surprised if they shared the vocal duties on songs and we'd hear some interesting duets.

What a boring pile of crap. The guy doesn't have a brain, for sure.
#1846 Re: Guns N' Roses » The 'Lost' GNR Album from '96 » 896 weeks ago
I can totally understand Slash. He felt he was an equal member of the band, then Axl started his late shows, no shows, riots and dictatorship. Axl fired Gilby without Slash's approval. Then Axl signed the Symapthy contract which Slash didn't want to do, Axl didn't go to the studio in the said time, but when the players left, he cam with his buddy Tobias, who played extra guitars - without Slash's approval again. No surprise Slash was pissed off.
On the other hand just imagine what Axl has done if Slash brought in a different singer, or just another keyboard player. Damn, even Izzy left Hollywood Rose, when Axl brought in Slash without telling him about it.
#1847 Re: Guns N' Roses » Fernando's link to leaks? And the craziness that is gnr » 896 weeks ago
Axl Rose said it never happened? Big deal! You can't trust the son of a bitch.
Duff McKagan said it never happened? Ha! Who gives a shit about some bass player.
Oh, Ross Halfin said it did? Believe! That's got to be the truth.
Have you read my post? I doubt it. Read it (again) and maybe you'll get it. You're way too fast screaming 'nonsense' without any background.

Period.
And I believe Slash all of a sudden having nothing but nice things to say about Axl in public was his way of talking about it. Again, it wouldn't benefit his own "business" to talk about it directly.
Not mention that this was the time when Slash dropped the lawsuits against Axl, visited his house etc.
I know that Ross Halfin isn't the most reliable source, but who is that in the GN'R land? Halfin posted on his blog about the one or 2 show reunion (one of the supposed dates was the Download festival), with DVD release etc.. Later he said that everything was ready to sign, but one lawyer found an interesting note that said the others would sign away all their rights regarding GN'R (royalties etc.) to one guy. He didn't name him, but it's not hard to find out. It does sound familiar, although we don't know if it's true.
#1849 Re: Guns N' Roses » favorite axl moment ( the gnrevolution version ) » 896 weeks ago
Journalist - What can you say about the relationship between Rose and Slash?
Fernando - They have not spoken for years. But everyone has to believe it is a relationship where Axl is a villain. Always, if something goes wrong who is to blame? If Slash does something nobody knows, such as Snakepit, but that's so special about this album? Not in any chart of MTV, no one is buying, but many think that Slash is the 'key' by Guns N 'Roses.
It's a very funny quote actually, since this is what happened to the 'album the whole world was waiting for'. After 15 years of creation, recreation and masturbation, it got canned in 2 weeks.

Tough, tough... I have to think it through again and again.
