he's already lost his hair, physique and any sort of dignity that he ever had. What a bloated, washed up loser.

Alright, someone really needs to ask Axl WTF really is his problem with Slash. Its been nearly 20 years, who honestly holds a grudge this long? Did Slash murder Axl's mother?

Why are none of these testicle-less interviewers asking him that?

They're probably told well before the interview what they can and can't ask.

"by emphasizing and reinforcing an association between Slash and GUNS N' ROSES and the band's song 'Welcome to the Jungle'."" - How did they even COME UP with this shit?! The audacity! :)

This isn't South Park, Slash actually does exist. Axl should stop pretending he doesn't.

Beautiful, just fucking beautiful!!!

What a cunt.

I would pay for someone to staple his mouth shut....oh fuck, I'm going to get sued now.

I don't know the specifics of this case, but I hope Axl loses.

Axl is going apeshit.

Wow, i've witnessed the impossible become reality when it comes to ex-members burying the hatchet and reform but there's really no hope in hell for this guy... what was it that his old members done to him that he feels the need to erase them from history so desperately... what a bitter sad man.

That's a very good question. I'd like to know the answers, myself. Was it Slash, Duff, Izzy, and Steven who made the decision to abandon the stage while James Hetfield was being rushed to the hospital after a freak pyro accident in Montreal, instigating one of the worst riots in the history of rock 'n' roll in the process (and for the record, I am well aware that 2 of those 4 were still in the band when that happened)? Did any one of those 4 threaten to fire the entire band if they didn't stop "dancing with Mr Brownstone", despite the fact that the same one making that threat was probably associated with the aforementioned Mr Brownstone? Did the actions of any of those 4 directly lead to the band being permanently banned from St. Louis? Did any one of those 4 dilly-dally around on recording the exact same album for 15 years? Are any of those 4 habitually LATE for their own concerts time and time again (I think that whole "get up around 7, get out of bed around 9" shit is starting to act as a reference to this, though)? Hmm...I don't think so. As a matter of fact, the man single-handedly responsible for all of that bullshit was none other than Axl Rose...yet he still thinks it's all the fault of Slash, Duff, Izzy, and Steven! At least they released more studio albums between 1993 and 2008 than Axl has!

SUCKER!!!!!!!

Thats right Axhole the real GNR never existed.

Yeah. How's Guns doing without any of the original members Axl?

Don't worry Axhole, there' won't be any future incidents like this where your current bandmates images and songs are used because outside your fanboys, no one knows any of the songs off ChiDem or your current hired guns.

Axl's being really childish on this one. I can only image what those poor sobs on his current GNR band are going through right now..haha fucking hell!!

Remember, they're getting paid more to be Axl's employees than any other gig would pay them. They're just cashing the checks.

Wow...filed in 2010....post what Axl's legal fees have amounted to as of today-from just that case alone.

yeah, the dummy's wasted more money in 15 years than any 10 of us put together will make in our lifetimes!

There is a scene in a film called Hard Core Logo - a former groupie is talking to the band's drummer. Groupie is wondering why the two guitar players are not getting along. The drummer wonders if it might have something to do with the one guitarist fucking the other drunk (passed out?) guitarist in the ass.

Good. Hope that the red headed POS loses badly.


Screw Axhole Pose & his frauds and hacks world's greatest tribute band!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Scab GNR plays to empty seats, and also does so in 3D, plus now loses in court as well.


The fans are laughing at Poser Rose & will always continue to do so!!!!!!!


Hail & long live Slash , Izzy , Adler , Duff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The real Guns 'N Roses Lineup & band!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When even ol' RobotAct666 here ^ hates your guts with a passion (apparently), you know you've fucked up :-)

Hey guys go here and vote for Voivod

http://loudwire.com/love-and-death-vs-voivod-cage-match/

Cause Head is good, but not that good as Voivod!

That's not Slash! It's just a look-alike meant to dupe the unsuspecting public! You know, like DJ Ashba?

I would love to see Axl fail at everything he says or does. He ruined what could have been the biggest band in history.

"Activision was offering me a GUNS N' ROSES dedicated video game, a game dedicated to music from the 'Chinese Democracy' album, and other proposals."

What a dumbarse. If he's actually that stupid that he would believe any company would actually waste it's time and money basing a game around that album he deserves what he gets.

Axhole Pose

Let hakk slaah win AXL, we all know his muzakk sukks hairy balls.
Krapokalipptikk lust was a bomnb and his 'concerts' are only attended by a handful of brainless assholes like riotact.


So:
FUKK HAKK SLASH, MUFFMEISTER MCLOAD, JUNKIE ADLER & ASSKISSER RIOTACT.

AXL=GNR!!!
AXL=GOD!!!

What a petty piece of shit this guy is. Psychotic tendencies for sure...

Like someone else up there said, who holds a grudge for 25 fucking years!?

Shit, Dave Mustaine comes to mind here - must be a ginger thing.

HIRED GUNS N' ROSE.

Look above Axl. Not one post in your favor.
Slash has as much rights to WTTJ as you do.

The public likes him more too..
Hell, Everyone loves Slash. He's a riteous dude.

putz

Axl might need to do a reunion to pay for these legal fees. His current lineup ain't doing much. LOL

His name is Blaxl "bling" Rose, get it right people.

What happened to axle rose? I used to think this guy was so cool when i was in my teens, now he's just a bloated washed up joke. Its quite sad.

For people who cannot understand why Axl won't ever reunite or what the hell did the old band do to him...

Browse through the million ofs comments here and other music sites from people with no info whatsoever regarding the break-up of the band or Axl's personal decisions - which haven't been properly documented since 1993, we're talking 20 years - and you will understand what they ''did'' to him.

Everything you know about Axl you found out through the media who's been covering stories without his input for the past 20 years. The man spoke about the issues and explained everything in detail but he didn't do it in Rolling Stone.

For example... Take what you know about Michael Jackson and what was your frist thought before he died (because after he was viewed as a martyr) and you will perhas, although I doubt it, understand the impact of media presentation. He was adored but after 1993 or so they started tearing him apart. No matter what he did. There was no way back. One of the greatest music artits was torn to pieces and the younger generation didn't even understand the musical greatness because it was overshadowed by everything else. By whom? The media.

The opinion of this entire community is a recycled onesided media presentation. I've read so many things written about GN'R that I can actually see sentences and opinions being reproduced by different people as if they were the one who thought of it.

This post won't change anything and the ignorance will prosper as it always has. However, it never ceases to amaze me that the most hated man on blabbermout still gets the most replies. I mean, what the fuck?!

Sad world. Axl acts like a true rock rebel, Slash embraces commercial horseshit, and the politically correct zombies only want hugs and kisses. Namrej, I'm with you brother. It's a Riotact world we live in now. Sad.

selling WTJ to GuitarHero isn't commercialism? Its commericialsim in its highest form. I agree, Slash has done too many commercial ventures(Superbowl with Fergie, American Idol), but don't turn a blind eye to Axl's commercial ventures and say "he's a rock rebel". there's nothing rebelious about Axl in 2013. Let's call a spade a spade. Nothing to do with being politically correct.

Namrej, there are indeed to sides to every story. In the early 90's Axl did indeed keep an eye on the business side of GNR more than the others, while they over indulged in drugs and alcohol. fair enough...but please don't make Axl out to be some innocent victim. forget Slash, ROlling Stone mag, the media, how about the rest of the band, crew, supporting acts, management, etc, who all give credence to the stories of Axl's excessive behavior, and abuse of power. He's not a victim. Things could have gone smoother, despite the issues of the band. Duff was clean when he left the band.

20 years later, all others have moved on. Axl definitely goes overboard to show his dislike of Slash, its a deep seated grudge held by a obsessive man. The more he kicks and screams, the more it draws attention to its obsurdity, in 2013.

Part of the reason 'Jungle was sold ot Activision was probably so fans can have fun playing the game to a GnR sond they like. And money of course. People don't only make music out of their artistic integrity, it is made to make some cash too. But, true artistic integrity keeps people from doing heartless music solely for cash or from finding sorry collaborators.

are you kidding me? please stop. in 1988 Axl would have gauged they eyes out of a guy asking to use WTJ for a video game. I'm not even criticizing him for making some $$ on it, only pointing out he allowed its use for the sale of a video game, for cash. It doesn't work one way for Slash, and not for Axl. It was heartless, and for $$ only.

Axl should find some colloborators. He might make some music. Isn't that what its about?

Hey Axl, the game is called Guitar Hero not Fat Zero.

Oh no! Activision dared to imply that "Welcome to the Jungle" is Slash's song!

We all know that Bumblehead, I mean DJ Arhshba, I mean Paul Fortrus, I mean Richard Huge, I mean Zakk Wylde, I mean Dizzy Read, I mean Chris Pittsman, I mean Frank Brainhead, I mean Brain, I mean Paul Huge, I mean Dick Fortus, I mean DH Ahsbba, I mean Buckethead wrote "Welcome to the Jungle"!

That was a very intelligent post and honestly, quite a rarity around here. I think you make some valid points and I agree with you on how the media dictates what it wants for it's own agenda. (Money.) However, Michael Jackson isn't exactly the best example.

Any time a high profile celebrity does anything eccentric, it's going to make headlines and thus sell papers, ad space, etc.. That was certainly true with Jackson, especially toward the end of the 80's when his appearance drastically changed. That was easy for the media. They didn't even have to try. The downfall of Jackson publicly was the allegations of child abuse. That scenario is too much for any celebrity to over come. I'm not even talking about the reality of whether or not the allegations were false in an attempt to get money out of Jackson. Either way the stage was set for a media field day. On one side you had people that thought they knew the truth about this weird (but genius) musician. On the other was the group of hardcore Jackson fans that were going to believe he was innocent regardless of the facts. That is a perfect storm for the media. Middle of the road doesn't sell. It kinda sounds like modern American politics.

Axl Rose made his bed in a similar way although not with creepy allegations. His reputation for ridiculous behavior goes well back before the original band dissolved. Late stage times, fighting within the band, St. Louis and Montreal, and a history of violence set the stage. The guy disappears for 15 years and returns with nearly the same behavior and the media has a field day. Fair?? Probably not, you can't deny Axl had something to do with it.

Anyway, I enjoyed the post. Thanks.

Everyone in the right mind would admit that Axl is responsible for at least half the shit he receives. Not ever have I claimed Axl is innocent. I think the issue is somewhere else.

There's a shitload of people who have been nothing but superficial and selective in regards to Axl. I find people who praise former member's material over Axl's the funniest because I would bet that 90% of them cannot name two songs from Duff or Izzy. The sheer ignorance is what amazes me.

All I'm saying is that Axl can be a HUGE asshole but he's also a scapegoat for everything. I mean the name calling, weight insults, jumping the gun on anything to discredit him. Blabbermouth, I don't mean you BSlash24, has Axl for a punching bag. He can't do right. I ask myself, what's the ultimate goal?

If Axl ''did'' to Slash what Slash ''did'' to him in 1994-1999 era we would have a very different picture today. The damage is irrepairable.

Just a random example... For the record, I think Slash looks alright and I have no problem with his physique. Would you agree Slash gained quite a few pounds? But has Slash's weight ever been an issue? That's what I'm talking about. People don't just express dissatisfaction with Axl's actions, which would be understandable, they do it in such a low-life manner it's disgusting. Everything gets turned into something personal. And Im' talking about people who aren't even GN'R fans to begin with, which you and I obviously are.

As for Activison lawsuit. Again a perfect example of media presentation. The article here suggests Axl has a problem with Slash inparticular and then all these half-wits are talking about Axl's grudge and whatnot. The deal was simple. It wasn't about Slash. Axl agreed for the song to be used if it weren't used in relation to the images of the old band. Seems logical to me. He has a band called Guns N' Roses and doesn't want to promote people who in his mind abandoned him. That doesn't mean Axl denies Slash wrote Jungle with him. Slash plays Jungle and is credited for it. But he cannot promote himself in association with the Guns N' Roses name.

You mentioned the rest of the band, crew, supporting acts, management who give credence to the stories. Who are you talking about? The supporting acts throughout had a lot more positive to say about him than negative. Alan Niven, Vicky Hamilton, Erin Everly? The story of The Darkness' frontman? Metallica?

Axl was excess, Guns N' Roses was excess. Only the people no longer in touch with Axl or no longer employed by him are the ones spreading rumours. What about Tom Mayhue, Del James, Doug Goldstein, Craig Duswalt, Josh Freese, Sebastian Bach, Moby or even Marc Cantor who all had nothing but positive to say about him? What about people who are saying how generous he is, how he takes care of his ''family'' and friends, how genuine, funny and entertaining he is? The fact is, those stories DON'T SELL.

And to finish it.... as anti-blabber pointed out, Axl had a reputation for being difficult even before 1990. But it was what made him who who he is. He was votalile, unpredictable, angry and crazy. People loved him for it. Axl hasn't changed much. And that's a major paradox. Nowadays people hate him for being himself, twenty years ago they loved him for it. And he's pulling the same shit. Late starts, feuds, rants, excessive behaviour... Exactly the same. And I believe that confirms my previous point about media presentation. He could have prevented it, yes! He could have complied with demands and expectations. But that would make him somebody else.

''You thought they'd make me
Behave and submit

What were you thinking
'Cause I don't forget''

The fact alone that Axl is the only one who still have a grudge toward the others, just make us thing that he is fucked up.

Of course, maybe something really shitty happenned that we will probably dont know and that particular thing would have made change our mind about the whole situation but i doubt that it is the case.

re: the lawsuit, I agree 100%. Activision went against that to obviously sell more units. I agree there should be a lawsuit(though it did line Axl's pockets more most likely).

I've read those stories too about Axl. He can be a giving person. That's great. I'm not pig piling on the guy, don't care that much about his personal life, but its typical manic behavior(especially back in the day), super nice and generous one moment, trashing a living room in the next and dragging someone by the hair. (allegedly). The people, management that have taken Axl's side are usually the ones that have something to gain from him too. (Goldstein for instance)...and of course he's treated people great and made friends. Those stories are told as well.

People, including myself, did like Axl's volitile side, in regards to rock n roll. Agree 100% with you. But the line was crossed, as a fan, seeing them 2 times and he left the stage because some guy had his arms crossed and the crowd wasn't into it. Another time in 2002 waiting til 12:30 bored out of my mind waiting. the whole audience was booing him. Nice job Ax. Why doesn't this happen to other bands w/regulatity?

One story after another of him being a complete prima donna, true ones that unfolded in public. The private, and maybe exxaggerated(maybe untrue) of him physically mistreating women. If true, a total pussy, that no matter how nice he is one day, doesn't make up for...I like his old music, used to like his stage attitude circa 1988, but became completely turned off by him. Even the interviews were he's being somewhat nice, he's so self important it was sicken(just watch the "making of" Estranged, Don't cry etc, very lame).

Ive never read anything positive from the supporting acts in their prime. I read a book on Shannon Hoon(Blind Melon), a friend that sort of purposely separated himself from Axl because of his bad bahavior. Faith No More, Blind Melon, metallica, Soundgarden, all were turned off by Axl's Modonna like behavior. They all are just "ganging up" on poor old Axl? come on...I'm not writing this cuz I'm "pro Slash", I've witnessed Axl's prima donna behavior. It completely turned me off. Ruined a night of Rock n roll. Nuff said.

I'm sure Axl has matured in 2013, but at this point, the horse is out of the barn, to me, I check out what he's up to for the circus of it. He's wildly unproductive, and full of excuses. He owes me and fans nothing, but vise versa. I'm not interested anymore. One record. Where's that vision, the urge to leave the others because he had so much musically to say. I'm not seeing it, nor hearing it.

Fat, I don't care. Axl is a pudge now, I've never written anything re: that. His voice is bad now, but if he can produce, he can get even heavier. And no, I don't see Slash being heavy at all. again, don't care though.

btw, the Darkness put on a killer show in a theater last week, no bombs, no waiting for 3 hours, and he could sing, play killer guitar and commanded a stage like Axl had in 1988.

Keep rockin' namrej

You tell them stories they'd rather believe
Use and confuse them
They're numb and naive

It's harder to live
With the truth about you
Than to live with
The lies about me

"they're out to get me!". waaah!

he can control the use of someone else's image? That's funny. Axhole is a riot. At least to everyone else, to himself he must be a bitter old cunt.

I used to sue a little
But the little wasn't doing
So the little got more and more
I just keep trying to get a little richer
Said a little richer than before

We've been dancing with Mr. Lawstone
He's been knockin'
He won't leave me alone

You always make valid points especially about Axl's behaviour which are hard to contradict. However, to me he hasn't changed all that much. Drama surrounded Guns N' Roses from day one and he was at the centre of it.

I think I've already discussed late show starts with you and I agree 100%. Not cool! But then it gets twisted, you know. Yeah, he's been late up to two hours but majority of the shows started within one hour of the scheduled time. I was under the impression, judging by the shows I've been to, that none of the bands started at the exact scheduled hour.

Axl is definitely wrong on this one, he shouldn't be late constantly. I'm hearing he's improving but it pisses me off when I read comments by people who don't go to the show and they CLAIM that he WON'T SHOW UP. Because of 1 show in 2002. My god, that's one hell of an echo.

His attitude towards women is questionable. However, two women sued him. Stephanie Seymour - who has admitted hitting him too - settled for 400k $. Erin Everly didn't even sue until Stephanie did. This woman lived apart from Axl for 3 years and then decided to sue. Hmmmmm... The amount of settlement was never disclosed. I don't claim Axl didn't do it or he was innocent but these two women claimed they needed medical assistence. It was also proven that no medical records exist.

I was under the impression Chris Cornell said nice things about Axl. Shannon Hoon was always so grateful to work with Axl. But I don't know, you may be right. Metallica were backstabbers, the Sacramento 1993 rant, if true, explains it.

One record? Agreed. Not enough and not a big enough reason to keep the band going. A shame. But it is what it is, I won't lose sleep over it.

I accept people were turned off by him and don't want to listen to him anymore or whatever. But you can't say you didn't care because you discuss it all the time. On some level you do care. The most important thing though is that you know the background despite the preference.

I'm speecheles when I see all the hatred from people who don't know shit, calling him names and whatnot. The manner of an average poster is sicker than anything he has ever done, in my opinion.

of course I care(d) about GNR, and people do in general. THe "hate" towards him on Blabbermouth and else where is because people were huge fans, and to most(including me), Axl pissed it away. To me, and no, I don't know him, but he seems to hold grudges to the point that its a hinderence. I heard Izzy in interview saying when he & Axl buried the hatchet, Axl asked to hold on, while he pulled out notes and read things he had written re: Izzy. Maybe Izzy was lying?

Re the women, I hate to say "he's a women beater" without facts. I'll say this, it doesn't look good. Adler, Slash, and Duff all wrote in their book about Axl becoming very aggressive with women. Duff saying he heard furiture tossed, then found Axl in the hallway screaming at Seymour. Whats to gain about lying about that? If all the allegations are true, he's a very small and lame man. He's what, 5-7" and tough with his security around. He'd get a beat down in the real world...but then again, your average rock star from the past have lots of very questionable behavior. Jimmy Page with teenagers.

this isnt' why I've stopped caring about Axl's GnR though. There's nothing there. I've seen the new GnR. Axl flat out sounded bad. I'm not picking on him, it was odd how he sounded, this Mickey MOuse type voice, literally. and the band of misfits that never liked GnR, playing GnR. Soulless. Didn't translate. Id' rather see Buckethead playing his spaced out shred then him playing Sweet Child. I'm sure he was bored. It was a pay check, and came across that way.

re: Hoon, the band, and Hoon all became tired of Axl's antics touring with him. Yes Hoon was grateful for the generousity, but turned off by his diva behavior...and re: the story by Justin Hawkins, Axl doesn't need to have his goons tossing musicians around back stage. He's still pulling that shit.
