Thanks for posting sfceric64 Interesting article. Met Slash and Axl by accident backstage at a Metallica/Cult show. Two drunks with big body guards and Axl has an unpleasant personality. Bust outs for sure but very wealthy ones. They were to open for Iron Maiden then didn't and were replaced by Megadeth. Thank you Dave. Slash improved with Velvet Revolver that was a good show at the Riviera. 8)

Glad you enjoyed the article, I enjoyed them in their glory years but never saw them live.
Sex & Drugs probably killed more Rock & Roll bands than anything.

Great article and post on GNR, sfceric64. Makes for a good read - fan or not.

Enjoyed your follow up, SBLS. That really leaves a sour impression when bands or members don’t pay professional respect with the job at hand, for whatever reason. These bands or individuals certainly don’t deserve to receive any respect or attention in or out of the venue or studio. Cry me the blues that they deserve whatever they want at the detriment of others just because they worked hard and are talented. They were given opportunities that others may or may not see. Whether you wear a top hat or a dangling sash . . . hard work and an equal and, possibly better less troubling talent is just around the corner, and behind that even more.

I do like some GNR and, yes, talent is within; however, a good alternative name for the band could be “Mess”.

Just sayin’. :wink:

Being rock and roll tough doesn’t have to mean you have to be a d*rk. Sometimes, restraint shows your true grit.

You’ll get far more mileage from that.
