Axl could be one of the nicest guys if you actually sat down and got to know him, but if you just look at his bad boy antics, well then you build your own perception that that's who he is

I think that about sums Axl up Faldor. As the man himself once said, 'Don't mess with the bad side of me'.
There are many examples of his generosity, graciousness and actual shyness out there too.

My main thing is that I think his fixation with Slash is now after so long essentially obsessive compulsive and must be exhausting for him and those around him.

Sure we can debate the 'who did what' stuff forever but the man has permanently hung himself up with issues concerning Slash and Stephanie; both of whom are long gone and have moved on.

I often wonder how none of these highly paid therapists could help him get passed all of that. For all of his sins as a control freak, he seems tragically prone to the bullshit of certain alternative healer types.

Its a pity he never found a woman who really loved him enough to challenge his behaviors and get him to grow and develop beyond the need for hangers on and yes men. I firmly believe its the key to unlocking Axl Rose, I think it's all he's ever really needed.

Look at what a good wife has done for Slash and Duff.

Slash left in late October, 1996 and Duff bailed in August, 1997. 9 or 10 months then.

Duff did leave in '97, but Slash said that he had been out of the band for a year in '96... That was the first confirmation.

So Duff did stay around 2 years.

No, it was Axl Axl who said that Slash hadn't been part of the band for a year. Huge difference.

It absolutely is, but he ruins that with Slash interviews. I don't get why he does that. There's many cases where Axl has shown to be a caring soul, but what good does those do when he comes off like a prick in interviews.

Axl has described himself as "blunt".

Seems pretty accurate in his interviews.
