I was a big Cindy Crawford fan too, she was my favourite brunette and Claudia Schiffer was my favourite blonde.  For a redhead I was quite fond of Angie Everhart.

Seymour was up there for me as well as some of the other Sports Illustrated Swimsuit girls.  I remember getting the playboy with her in, I think the title on the cover read something like "By order of Axl Stephanie gets her panties off for the last time".

I used to really rate Elle too, but nowadays compared to the other models from that era I think she hasn't aged quite as well.  The skin on her chest looks like leather from too much sun.  Don't get me wrong, I would still poke her in the whiskers but there would be some other models from that era that would be ahead of her now.

Karen Mulder was another SI chick that I would have loved to drill.

On a separate note, an Aussie girl I went to school with - Kate James ended up in the 1994 SI Swimsuit issue.

If Slash still has a reunion in the back of his mind, it wouldn't hurt him to try and put his best foot forward for a change.  If the 4 do write together on the one song and are able to capture something killer then I think that's a positive.

Whilst I like VR and the 2 albums, since Slash left Guns, for me, there has only been glimpses of his brilliance here and there.  But unfortuantely there is been a lot of "run of the mill" stuff in between.   Hardly inspiring if you are Axl sitting on the sidelines wondering whether you ever want to work again with this guy.  In fact didn't Axl say words to that effect in one of his online chats?

I would say to Slash, get all 4 to play on the one song.  BUT only if you are able to come up with something good, if it doesn't click don't force it to happen.

What a bizzare matchup.

I voted Wonka - never been a big horror fan.  Maybe if they chopped up some Oompa Lumpa's Wonka may get some more votes in this one.

Great interview by Ron.  As you say James, the non-GNR related questions/stuff I find more interesting now since he can't/won't give anything else away.

Regarding the above statement, I suppose you could look at that either way.  He WAS unsure about a tour when the interview took place but now that's not necessarily the current situation.  Therefore the current situation could be:

1. He knows there IS going to be a tour, or
2.  He now knows that there is NOT going to be a tour.

I suppose it depends if you are a glass half full or half empty GNR person as to how you want to read it.

Hmmmm - I can't believe I have sunk to the level of analysising individual words and statements from a band member to try and get a clue as to what is bloody going on    - Shame on me!
