#5301 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » Slash Basically Blaming Axl » 894 weeks ago
I'd make a case that Tommy was always a nobody, but that's just my opinion. I don't care for his former band, nor his solo work, nor whatever minimal contributions he made to GnR. Based on album sales (I know, not everything), I'm not alone either.
Kudos to Tommy - his old band influenced a lot of crappy bands. Yipee.

Intercourse wrote:the fact that Axl uses his FRIEND or forum devotees to interview him while Slash has gone in front of the world's media should tell you a lot about which man is being more open
I disagree, he went in front of some of his harshest critics on MYGNR, his fans.
You mean when he chose what questions he would answer? Way to go out on a limb Axl. What a brave, brave man.

i don't think he's fucked anything up. not all people are compatible.
Apparently nobody is compatible with Axl as a peer, only the bottom feeders that leech from him. But it's not his fault.

Beautiful - not the Robin & Richard version

If he could fuck up the AFD/UYI lineups, I think it's safe to assume he could fuck up any lineup.

Here is the response she sent me:
"I went thru grade, middle and high school with him. Most of us have followed his career since he went to California. He was back at Christmas time and we were able to get together for a semi class reunion. He's a very down to earth guy with amazing talent. I was surprised to hear he was going to GNR."

My cousin did go to school with him. She sent me a message on Facebook before I even got a chance to ask her because she knows I'm a huge fan (or at least I was).

I know this isn't the uncool thread, but Olorin's post reminds me that the GnR being uncool perception might really be more of an Axl is uncool thing. He was the one attacking Cobain, he was the over the top guy, huge videos, etc. As much as everyone wants to say that Axl moved on and took GnR forward, I think you can make a case that it is Axl that never moved forward. His music is still over the top, bloated, full of excesses, etc.

My cousin grew up in Fairbury. I'll have to see if she knew him at all.
