BETWEEN SELECTED LINES

[jplpool]

Lets read between the lines! lets have some quotes + STORIES from the book "slash" and discuss what they might reveal. I'll get the ball rolling

"That kind of reverse psychology is one of the traits of his that i hope i have inherited,because I'd like to use it on my kids"

MMMMM didn't axl accuse accuse him of using similar methods lately?

[jplpool]

"Axl had been brainstorming on how to put together the right band,and he thought that Izzy and I would make a great pairing"
oh so it was Axl's band then? It was certainly his vision!

[jplpool]

"No matter what anyone might say about him,Axl Rose is brutally honest. His version of events might be singular,to say the least,but the truth is, he believes in what he says with more heart than anyone else I've ever met"

really? wonder if slash still stands by that statement?

please explain

. not neceseraly. his vision is that Axl put the band together, not that it was his band.

really? wonder if slash still stands by that statement?

has Slash ecer accused AXL of lying? i know he accused Beta and some fucktards at hard rock café for lying (and it is true that Axl believed those people) but i don't think he has ever accused Axl himself of lying. rather being misinformed.

ifind it funny that you find positive Axl comments made by Slash and somehow try to turn them against Slash in the so-called "Axl Vs. Slash war"

[jplpool]

please explain.

well Axl has said recently,that he believes slash lied about liking my world,and that axl was at first against using it in the "illusion" format and wanted to add guitars,he says that he believes slash knew there would be a backlash against the song and it would be directed at axl.
he has also stated that he believes slash wanted full control over guns from the very start(actually he says (it)"started in the heart of one man" before guns even started)

never heard the My World story, but i like that song and of cource the backlash is diarected at Axl. that is the onlu old gnr song that he alone did. as for the control thingie:

isn't Axl the boss of everything and owns the name and blah blah blah now? and it was Slash that wanted power?

well u must have a strange sense of humour,i aint turning them against anyone! thats what the question marks signify! 

i think he meant exactly what he siad and i don't think there is any secret meaning behind anything.

[jplpool]

the my world thing,is on the site here today gone to hell,axl actually visited several fansites and gave his q+a sessions,here to today gone 2 hell have the transcripts from all of the fansites

isn't Axl the boss of everything and owns the name and blah blah blah now? and it was Slash that wanted power? smirk :

[jplpool]

"My memory is hazy on the various events that led to the forming of guns N' roses, because, to be be honest for most of it I wasn't there" 

[ALiX-Rose]

he means that he "was out of it" as in he was too drunk to remember.

[jplpool]

he means that he "was out of it" as in he was too drunk to remember.

no he wasnt even in the band! i knew that anyway,but such a sentence really does put the whole naming rights thing into perspective!

[jplpool]

"Axl and Izzy were a unit,so any other players coming into THEIR band,had to work well with both of them"

[jplpool]

"Axl could always take a simple izzy melody and turn it into something fantastic" (mr brownstone)

Really? so it was o.k for axl to make major decisions on guns sound even before appetite was released?

"The next day day we made it official: I told Tom to let Paul (Stanley,Kiss) know that we were going to continue our quest for a producer, thank you very much. I'm sorry to say that not long afterward,I retold this story to the L.A weekly, with an excessive degree of attitude directed at Paul. I meant no harm; I was so enthusiastic about what we were doing that to me anyone who didn't get it was just wrong.I didn't even remember insulting Paul publicly and therefore had no qualms about calling him a month or two later to ask for a favor. We'd begun recording,at that point,but I'D PAWNED MY BEST GUITARS FOR DOPE and I hoped that he would that he would be able to hook me up with some studio worthy gear via his sponsorship deal with B.C Rich
'Hey Paul it's slash' I said 'It's been a while. how are you man?'
'I'm good' he said
'Hey,listen, I  know you've got that deal with B.C rich. Do you think you can get me some guitars?'
'Yeah, I could,it wouldn't be a problem' he said' followed by..... silence
'But I WONT. Here's a piece of advice; you should be careful about airing your dirty linen in public. Good look to you'

hmmm, dirty laundry, public was that a "precedent" /
