Title: New Slash Interview From Broward-Palm Beach New Times
Post by: Ali on October 04, 2007, 02:02:24 AM
Thanks to FunkyMonkey who posted the link in the thread about Slash's autobiography:

http://www.browardpalmbeach.com/2007-10-04/music/velvet-revolver-seeks-libertad/

Some interesting quotes from the article:

"But the band's survival was threatened after rumors surfaced about Slash rejoining Guns alongside frequently unhinged frontman Axl Rose ? a situation Slash made worse by initially claiming that a late-night visit with Rose hadn't taken place. "I didn't really intend to lie for any other reason than that I didn't feel like explaining everything. Which is the reason most people lie, I guess," he says, laughing."

"In addition, he's written an autobiography that he hopes will set the record straight about his past and present. Trouble is, he admits that he "can't remember three-quarters of what went on."

"Most everyone in Guns has been pretty close ? at least four of us," he says. "The calls have been so close to the point that there's no reason I should still be here. I've been clinically dead and all this other shit."

And it will be fair to Axl ? :rofl:

Hard to do when you can't remember shit. Can't wait to read that 'book'.

Probably not, but if Axl ever wrote an autobiography, I don't think he'd be fair to anybody else either. You can take it for what it's worth.

Interesting article. Poor Slash just seems to be so weak when it comes to being excessive. Hopefully from now on he will think of his babies and try to be stronger for them.
