STEVEN ADLER: 'I'm Not Angry With AXL ROSE Anymore' - Nov. 30, 2012
Original GUNS N' ROSES drummer Steven Adler tells RollingStone.com that he has put any thoughts of a reunion of the band's classic lineup behind him since frontman Axl Rose refused to appear at GN'R induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame this past April.

Adler, who has had a large GUNS N' ROSES poster advertising the band's first tour of England hanging in his living room for the past 20 years, says he now realizes GN'R is part of his past.

"Every time I have to go to the bathroom, I have to walk past [the poster]," says Adler. "I'd always see it and say to myself, 'One day we're gonna reunite! We're gonna do it! We're too good of a team not to do this again.' Now I walk past it and I say to myself, 'I'm so glad I was a part of that. That was a great and exciting time of my life.' It's nice to appreciate it, but I'm no longer angry and pining for a reunion. I'm not angry about it anymore. It's flushed out of my system."

Despite slamming Rose in the press as an "asshole" for failing to appear at the Rock Hall induction ceremony, Adler now says, "I'm not angry with Axl anymore. I love him and I feel blessed that I got to work with him and achieve what I achieved with him. I guess time does heal all wounds."

Adler also says that he regrets having calling the current lineup of GUNS N' ROSES "hacks" and "scabs.' "I shouldn't have said that," he says. "I've grown up and matured. Holy crap! I've matured in the six months since we last spoke!"

A legend like Ronnie James Dio dies from cancer, yet a junkie like this fuck and Scott Weiland still live. God is fucked up!

He does have a life. His new band and record rocks. Much better than the last piece of crap gnr put out. One thing you can say about Stephen Adler is that he is geniune. Not a freaking loser like Mr. Bailey!

Right On! I would support Steven's new project before I would support the current GNR fiasco. You would be pissed too if you were part of a creation that one greedy bastard decided to call his own. Megadeth belongs to Mustaine because he was the primary creator of the Megadeth legacy. You can't say that about Axl and GNR.

Well, it is sad to see so many blabbermouth Guns N' Roses "fans" who are still stuck in the 80s that still complain that Slash, Duff, Izzy and Steven are the "real" Guns N' Roses. If Steven Adler can move on, so can you.

Ever notice it's only Adler going on and on about a reunion? You never hear it from Slash, Duff or Izzy.

If they really wanted to, those four could team up, get a singer or two and tour the world under a different name (preferably not "Velvet Revolver") playing all the hits and make a fortune.

They don't do it because they actually have successful solo careers, business ventures and royalties they don't blow on drugs or putting together awful bar bands.

I wouldn't be angry with Axl anymore either when I could finally get it together and write a better record than his band of hacks or scabs can do. People only go to GnR shows because of the name and because of Axl. That's it. It's not even close to the feeling one got with the original lineup, or 3/5ths of the original lineup, either.

Yeah right, Adler's bland retro rock is better than Chinese Democracy. Democracy is a REAL album with real music, not dependent upon catchiness or commercial appeal. Something that pretty much doesn't exist anymore. Maybe just a little too deep for someone named JOSHKORN.

It's sad that you think your "so called" retro rock is crap. I think I could make a non commercial album also if I put out and album every 15 years.

Good for Steven, glad faced the past and realized it's just that, in the past. I think his drug use had to do with him not accepting the fact that GNR would never get back together.

Everyone ragging on him, who wants to live hating? No one. It's best to move on. Like a burning hot piece of charcoal, the only person anger hurts is the one who is holding it .

Fucking Adler shouldnt be pissed at anyone but himself. He fucked up his gig in GNR, made a ton of money off the appetite record and drugged himself into submission for all them years afterwards. Not sorry for him at all.

p.s. Steven, RiotAct666 wants to blow you-

The last 2 Slash albums and the last 2 Loaded albums were ALL better than Democracy. I'd bet that Adler's album will be better as well.

But seriously, Steve....Axl didn't really like you in 1986, so why do you think he'd give a rats ass about you in 2012?

Hopefully that means he will actually shut the fuck up about him now instead of claiming he's done talking about him and GN'R.

all wise cracks aside, he does seem to be more coherent, and normal in the interviews I've seen of him this past year. More relaxed, etc...his new band is not going to burn up the charts, but it gives him a feeling of belonging...getting kicked out of the biggest band in the world really F'd with him for a long time. Like a guy that is way in love, and the girl cheats on himwith a friend.(though Adler has no one but himself).

I think he realizes he was at fault. He was the junkie. The other guys were too, but he absolutely couldn't handle it, he became a laughing stock...everyone else ending up leaving or getting kicked out, so its not like they are all out reunited and he's at home.

I look at his singer and he's so 80's Sunset STrip, but the guy can actually play guitar...they are having a good time, and getting on. He's got a live again. He actually seems somewhat with it now.
