Title: Velvet Revolver in Total Guitar mag. Post by: anarchy on March 06, 2004, 07:36:08 PM I have here the April issue of Total Guitar UK and it seems to have picture of Slash on the cover with 'Velvet Revolver' written on the front.
It's an interview with Slash, Duff and Dave about the guitars they used on different songs and generally about the sound of the album. There's also some stuff about the end of old GNR. If there's a demand for it then I will post pictures of the article. :P Title: Re:Velvet Revolver in Total Guitar mag.

Kinda confirms my opinion that no matter how much he rocks, Slash is a bit of an ass. Title: Re:Velvet Revolver in Total Guitar mag.

Who knows how things really were when he was with GN'R, maybe it wasn't the same situation that Slash feels now with VR. Title: Re:Velvet Revolver in Total Guitar mag.

Whether that's the truth or not, it doesn't need to be said at this point in time. Slash's peers, along with the general music listening public already know about the dictatorship. Let sleeping dogs.... Title: Re:Velvet Revolver in Total Guitar mag. Post by: Top-Hatted One on March 07, 2004, 02:36:52 AM Wow the comparison between Superhuman & Sweet Child O' Mine sounds amazing and very unexpected!!

How do u know that is exactly what slash said? What if they left out a bit at the end where he `might` have said " .....in a long time " think about it. : ok: Title: Re:Velvet Revolver in Total Guitar mag.

Title: Re:Velvet Revolver in Total Guitar mag. Post by: metallex78 on March 07, 2004, 08:21:30 AM Funny, no-one has made mention about how fucking cool Slash looks. He looks the same in these photos as he did 13 years ago in the UYI booklet.
I really hope this album lives up to all the hype, it sounds like its gonna be fuckin killer. :beer: Title: Re:Velvet Revolver in Total Guitar mag.

Title: Re:Velvet Revolver in Total Guitar mag. Post by: Evil Ash on March 08, 2004, 08:14:13 AM Man, more and more i'm beginning to see just how cool duff really is!!
Gotsta see Velvet Revolver very fucking soon :peace: Title: Re:Velvet Revolver in Total Guitar mag. Post by: John Daniels on March 08, 2004, 10:33:31 AM great article! it makes me wanting this album even more.
I think Axl really took it for granted how great the four of us -including Izzy- worked together, because it was hard for him to replace us. -Slash- maybe he got some point with that statement..

Good article, I'm just surprised he was allowed to talk about how much Gibson sucks without having lawsuits filed against him. Normally when an artist endorses a certain instrument make, they're getting payed a fuckload, and aren't allowed to play or say any other make. Nice to see Slash has some respect for the instrument. Title: Re:Velvet Revolver in Total Guitar mag. Post by: blues_rock_axeman on March 08, 2004, 04:44:35 PM I'm off to buy that copy.
It's fuckin' great to see the band get such high-profile publicity. Guitarists make up a huge population of the rock music industry, and since most of them hate Axl and love Slash, it's more likely they'll go and buy the album now... Which is a good thing. :beer: Title: Re:Velvet Revolver in Total Guitar mag. Post by: metallex78 on March 08, 2004, 07:21:58 PM I'm off to buy that copy.

Which is a good thing. :beer: Guitar magazines have always given Slash a good write-up over the years. Even when he put out the Snakepit albums they gave some good interviews with him. Guitarists still hold Slash in high regard (even myself, as I'm a guitarist) for the work he did in GN'R, regardless of the music he has released since. He almost has rock immortality thanks to the GN'R legacy. Title: Re:Velvet Revolver in Total Guitar mag. Post by: erose on March 08, 2004, 08:21:52 PM "This is the first time I've really felt part of a band" ??? He could have said that this was the first time he really felt he's the boss of a band... Slash is God, but that was just a plain stupid thing to say and if someone ask him about that quote he'll say something different... How could you be the lead guitarist for Guns N' Roses 10 years + - and not feel like being a part of the band??? if huge would have said it, i'd understand, but Slash... I can't wait for contraband, and if cd comes while it's still going strong it'll be very interesting just to see which ones sell the most. i like the sound of not being able to compare it with anything of todays music tho, thats very promising!!! today's music mostly suck imo with ofcourse a handfull of exceptions.

Maybe because he was high 99% of the time? Maybe because by the time he wasn't high, Axl had hire paul huge and Izzy had left? Title: Re:Velvet Revolver in Total Guitar mag.

Title: Re:Velvet Revolver in Total Guitar mag. Post by: Miz on March 10, 2004, 03:42:58 PM When I said "he" I meant Slash. And it's irrelevant that they recorded 5 great albums. They could've recorded three hundred, but Slash still might have not felt he was part of a band.
