What about Austin V Jericho at Mania?

Just seen Jericho beating down one of Austins heroes, Ricky Steamboat, on RAW. He was ridiculing the Hall Of Fame and WWE legends, seems like a set up since Stone Cold is being inducted.

Its even sadder because its a Del interview. All the things he could have spoke about and its still all about Slash including the "Do you think he can play guitar?"  question.

Its all a ruse to beat Slash down, even a impartial interviewer wouldnt go on so much about the one subject.

Actually all past members and even Robin got kicked in the interview, even if it was just a sly kick under the table.

Del can hardly be accused of asking tough questions when he is sitting down with his best friend, who's pocket he has been living in for the last 20 years. I wonder how many times him and Axl edited that article.
Their was no tough questions from del, him and Axl just got together and created a nice presentation for another Axl rant.
If he wanted to ask tough questions he'd say " Dude, where's the Better video?"

He likes to harp on about detractors, what are these people exactly? People who dont worship the ground he walks on?

I remember MSL talking about his phone call with Beta and he was saying how he got the impression that they were completely consumed with Slash. He never even mentioned him and she was ranting and raving about Slash. People called him a bullshitter but as times went on its transparant its completely true,  they really are obsessed with Slash.

Some interesting tit bits about the making of the music and I'm well chuffed to know Brain is still on board.

I suspect this is part one, there will probably be more to follow - hopefully more about the new band and the new album.

Radio 1 played it quite a bit but it it just sloped off the radar. If there was band activity and a tour in the works they could have milked the public enthusiasm for a while and pushed the singles, but because it became clear there was going to be no involvement of GN'R with the release, it just got swept under the carpet.

I believe there could be a 2nd wind for the album, its not as though the album has been milked very much after all, there is still a lot of quality on it. Once a tour is in the works and they start playing some successful shows I wouldnt be suprised to see it rising up the charts again.
