Title: Slash & Fergie Perform Sweet Child O' Mine At Rose Bowl; Video Post by: FunkyMonkey on October 26, 2009, 08:58:21 AM # Just jammed "SCo'M" at the Rosebowl with the BEP, amazing crowd. Fergie killed it.
about 8 hours ago from Facebook The opening act, L.A.'s own Black Eyed Peas, brought along special guest Slash to play "Sweet Child O' Mine" -- this really was a stadium show flashback -- and the crowd went wild. Black Eyed Peas "Sweet Child O' Mine" w/Slash http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fiW66xPZ4Vg Title: Re: Slash & Fergie Perform Sweet Child O' Mine At Rose Bowl; Video Post by: FunkyMonkey on October 26, 2009, 12:59:44 PM I'm surprised...as many times as she has done this song. :D
The gig was opened by Black Eyed Peas, who were introduced by Guns N Roses legend Slash, who then launched into Sweet Child O' Mine. However, female Pea Fergie appeared to fluff the words in the the second verse and needed cues from bandmate Will.I.am. The rock giants were playing the Rose Bowl in Los Angeles before the biggest crowd the venue had ever seen - estimated to be 100,000.

U know how a lot of artists can cover others and a lot of times make the song their own and sometimes even better? I have never in my life heard anybody cover GNR *high stuff* and come close. weiland did pretty good on Its So Easy and Brownstone but Axl has a voice and tone that is just unmatchable. Love u Slash, but this shit sucks the solo sounded a bit off............

Please leave these songs alone and play some new stuff.

what an outstanding way of destroying an immortal hard rock hymn leave GNR songs in peace Slash. go write your own fucking songs and play them with all the nobodies you want. Title: Re: Slash & Fergie Perform Sweet Child O' Mine At Rose Bowl; Video Post by: Smoking Guns on October 26, 2009, 10:42:31 PM Fergie is so hot. The audio on Slash's guitar sucked, is it possible his amp sound that weak? Sounded almost like a fender amp. And it seemed to only be picking up some of his frequencies on the wah. Oh well, wasn't too terrible.

I knew the audio was fucked up, Slash's solo rips on this recording! D, something was up with that mic or something.... Another version http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-_ViDUUiig&NR=1 Title: Re: Slash & Fergie Perform Sweet Child O' Mine At Rose Bowl; Video Post by: faldor on October 26, 2009, 11:48:43 PM That wasn't a very impressive performance. I'll stray from the normal, "oh my god, why Slash?" comments. I prefer the Fergie/Slash performance of this song from his Slash and friends gig over the summer. That one I actually enjoyed watching. Mostly because Fergie was shaking her ass throughout most of the video and looking damn good doing it. This one, didn't do it for me.
I could understand Slash playing with Fergie, Nicole, Britney Spears, whoever if he was banging them or getting some on the side but I don't think that's happening. So I just don't get it. In his defense though, he just loves to play, he's friends with Fergie, and he had the opportunity to be a part of the monster U2 show and play in front of a packed stadium. With all that being said, I still don't like it.

With all that being said, I still don't like it. Well thats exactly it isnt it? he loves to play, fergie is obviously friends with him and perla, and he had the chance to play SCOM in front of 100000 people. Would anyone here say no to that ??? Maybe some people should think about that for a minute. And he has every right to jam on any GNR song he feels like. Some of you seem to think that musicians don't jam! If Slash ever joined a band with Fergie, that would be it for me. But jamming is different. Title: Re: Slash & Fergie Perform Sweet Child O' Mine At Rose Bowl; Video Post by: AxlReznor on October 27, 2009, 06:08:28 AM I usually haven't minded Fergie singing this song... but that was just plain awful. Unfortunately, a lot of the awfulness came from Slash playing the song too slowly with a fucked-up guitar tone. But Fergie's flat notes didn't help, either.
I would actually love to hear that song sang by Christina Aguilera. Gotta point out, though... that Slash has said repeatedly how much he hates Sweet Child O' Mine, and how he dislikes playing it. Would've thought that leaving Guns N' Roses would have given him the perfect oppurtunity to never play it again. Title: Re: Slash & Fergie Perform Sweet Child O' Mine At Rose Bowl; Video Post by: Limulus on October 27, 2009, 06:17:53 AM Slash allready said in 1992 (MTV GN'R weekend-video) that he enjoys now playing it and the kids go nuts!

Title: Re: Slash & Fergie Perform Sweet Child O' Mine At Rose Bowl; Video Post by: AxlReznor on October 27, 2009, 06:39:07 AM He said he thought it was a stupid song, and he was pissed that it became their biggest. Anything positive he's said about it has been a grudging respect for its popularity. He has never said anything to suggest he liked it.

May 1992 - Prague (broadcasted as part of the MTV GN'R weekend ~2 weeks later) where Slash talks about "Sweet Child O' Mine": http://www.sendspace.com/file/pzike4 May_1992_Slash_on_SCOM.wmv - 20mb feel free to upload it on youtube etc.! Title: Re: Slash & Fergie Perform Sweet Child O' Mine At Rose Bowl; Video Post by: D on October 27, 2009, 08:15:58 AM Slash did WRITE Sweet Child, so let's don't act like he isn't allowed to play it
So saying he should write his "OWN" songs really isn't fair and could be used in the same way against u. If Slash never fucks around and plays that intro.. guess what? That song never gets written and would never exist, so lets remember that before bashing away. Without Slash, u wouldn't have all those great songs and we wouldn't be on here talking about it. so even though Im not a fan of this... He can do it if he chooses.

How did that happen? Is he just picking artists that are at the top of the "pop" world to try to enhance his own image? If he was jamming with people from the "rock" world it wouldn't be as questionable. But this just makes me wonder. I don't know to be honest... but when it comes to a serious gig he still plays rock with John 5, Franky, Ronnie Wood and the like. Maybe Perla is good friends with them and keeps talking him into it? We all do stuff for our girlfriends lol :hihi: Or maybe he wants to try and expand to a larger audience so more people will hear his solo album.

Like I said before, I liked their performance at the Slash and Friends gig. This one though, was not good. And from what I've seen of that Nicole chick. She should do a Milli Vanilli type thing. She's great to look at, but not much of a live performer. Again, at least from what I've seen, which is the ONE song she did with Slash. Not much of a sample, admittedly. i don't mind Fergie either, she is quite good. The bigger picture that i try to see is that this is fun for Slash while he doesn't have a band. I don't think he'd ever start a band with Fergie or Nicole. This solo album gives him the chance to step outside the box a little. But, when VR find a singer, it will be back to serious business and we'll see less of Slash and Fergie. Title: Re: Slash & Fergie Perform Sweet Child O' Mine At Rose Bowl; Video Post by: Genesis on October 27, 2009, 10:42:03 AM That performance kinda sucked but once again I'm surprised by why people are so bothered if he plays with Fergie or whomever. The man
likes to play and he plays with as many people as he can. Why are people bothered whom he plays with or how he became friends with them? Why care? People seem to be of the opinion that being a rock guitarist, Slash should only play with rock artists. That's kind of lame. If all guitarists thought the way some of you do, they would have all been stuck in one genre. Guitar God Shawn Lane played Jazz, Rock, Bebop and a host of other genres including branching out to classical Indian music on guitar before he died. I kind of like the way he does things. Go out and play a lot, update fans on Twitter and Facebook. Keep the interest high. I don't like all his performances, but there will be a good one from time to time and that won't happen unless you play with people.

I don't care what Slash does, the work he did in GNR should always be respected by fans. no one else could've wrote what he did for Estranged,NR,SCOM etc NR is consistently a top 10 all time solo, SCOM is always a top 5 all time riff u can hate Slash all u want for what he does now, but cool it with the disrespect. I love how people slag off on Slash and their reasoning being he hasn't done anything since GNR well, CB was a great fucking CD, sold 2 million in the US, won a grammy and kicks ass Plus, who cares what SLash has done post GNR? what he did in GNR is more than 99.9999999 percent of any guitar player has accomplished.

Does that somehow minimize his all time great contributions to those songs? My point is that Axl was able to see the potential and the brilliance in those 3 songs immediately whereas he basically had to drag Slash kicking screaming to the recording studio so those tracks could even be recorded. I have more respect, and see more talent in someone who is able to recognize brilliance without hesitation, and who then feels compelled to share that brilliance with the world instead of someone who doesn't want to try something new because they personally don't like it, are afraid of looking uncool, or would rather play the same blues-rock songs over and over again.

Title: Re: Slash & Fergie Perform Sweet Child O' Mine At Rose Bowl; Video Post by: D on October 27, 2009, 06:59:41 PM Which is why I started taking more of Axl's side of the breakup
If Axl was "difficult" to work with only cause he wanted to be great whereas Slash wanted to do "easy" then I don't blame Axl at all. Which is why I blame more of the old band than Axl just due to that and Slash's drug problem. Impossible to communicate/work with someone on drugs.

The primary difference being that police officers who were not under the influence recorded your DUIs when they occured. There is therefore no way you can dispute having been charged or arrested for DUI since these incidents have been recorded, and are now on record regardless if you dispute them or don't rememmber them. Just as virtually every incident Slash lies about, misconstrues, confuses, compounds, etc in his book can be verified through evidence; be it public knowledge like his correct wedding date, or through visual or audio means such as the St. Louis concert, which confirms that Slash essentially condoned the band leaving the stage since he flipped the crowd off, and was not pushed into it like he alludes to in his book.

I would doubt he would've flipped the crowd off anyway, maybe the security.Title: Re: Slash & Fergie Perform Sweet Child O' Mine At Rose Bowl; Video Post by: D on November 01, 2009, 02:27:47 PM Don't remember exactly, but I remember I had just watched the ST Louis Show shortly before reading the book and while reading the book i kept saying "That isn't what Happened"

Do I agree with EVERY version or collaboration that any of them decide to do? Of course not. But who the fuck am I to tell them they can't do it?

Look at this. Slash used to jam with rock musicians in the past. The thing is, there aint really any big (and good) rock musicians for Slash to jam with in this day and age. So even though all these shitty popstars heres playing sucks, id rather that then see him play with Kings of Leon.

GNR, Michael Jackson etc Title: Re: Slash & Fergie Perform Sweet Child O' Mine At Rose Bowl; Video Post by: Dayle1066 on November 08, 2009, 09:08:25 AM Surely noone has heard of Slash's solo stuff because he hasnt released it yet?

You're a idiot. is that all you got? ;) I'm fine with Slash not being in GN'R anymore, they have a great band right now. However, GN'R (the name and the band) would never be as known or would have been as good if Slash had not been in the band. You can't say you wish, one of the best guitarists in the last 25 yrs, would have never been in your band. If you do say that, you are a idiot.

I'll give you Contraband being a hit, and even Libertad to an extent. But not Slash's Snakepit. Anyway, back on topic. I still don't like this performance. Both Fergie AND Slash were off their games.

Title: Re: Slash & Fergie Perform Sweet Child O' Mine At Rose Bowl; Video Post by: babydolls on November 09, 2009, 12:56:28 PM urgh, that was awful. I shouldnt ahve bothered watching that. have always been against the idea of fergie singing this - actually its just a thing against any female singing GnR - it does not work for me at all. Even Courtney Love, who I thinks ROCKS, now she's a true rocker as opposed to Fergie, but when Courtney sings Paradise City (with Hole at Big Day out back in the day) = BAD.
girls - leave the GnR alone. and slash, well this performance? no fkn comment.

Title: Re: Slash & Fergie Perform Sweet Child O' Mine At Rose Bowl; Video Post by: Jdog0830 on November 20, 2009, 12:28:18 PM Ok, that performance was ok. Slash didn't have the chemistry of his old bandmates beside him to make this sound like GnR but its just a bunch of musicians doing a cover on-stage. Nothing to get heated up about. I'm still happy to watch Slash play anything! Yeah and there lack of Drums, a second guitar (excluding the base one you see in there or at least I think it was a base guitar) and without all that it dosnt sound like a good song. But Slash did his part they should have made it at least have the element of a actual band playing.
