Slash comments on possibility of Chinese Democracy release

[Mikkamakka]

Guys, it's fiction that CD'll be ever released and what'll happen then... and there is a chance that Slash won't like it since he didn't want to go to Axl's 'new direction' that meant making the Nutopian National Anthem again and again...

[Jim Bob]

One day when it comes out and Slash buys the album to see what Axl have managed, his laughs will be over. I'm sure he'll say something along the lines of.........hmm......well actually, Axl proved me wrong after all and make a pretty cool album.

i dont agree

cause he will be like some of these hater fans on the board that no matter what axl puts out they will never give it the proper due it deserves.

they will listen with a closed/negative mind and shit all over it regardless of how great it is.

i hate those people

While Slash has the biggest reason of all to be sceptical about Chinese Democracy, he will also be among the very first to grab themselves a copy whenever it comes out...

[Intercourse]

Before you all start the 'let's bag on Slash' rant..
Slash has already said that he knows what Axl will release  will be 'awesome'.
Check out the VR video interview from London, Slash has nothing but compliments...

[Eazy E]

You know, all this stuff about it being a "joke" and "its because the Blue Jays catcher asked the question!" are total fuckin BULLSHIT if you ask me.

I think Slash actually paused, weighed both options, and picked the right choice.  I mean, LOOK at the situation.... GN'R bandmembers are scattered all over the planet until at least September, while the Toronto Blue Jays are currently the #1 team in the MLB.  No ties, standing alone at #1...

BTW, do you think its a coincedence that the last time the Jays won the World Series was 1993?  For fuck's sake, the Jays have been in a race with Axl for over a decade, but Axl's doing the same old shit, while the Jays are lighting up the league!

He'll probably say it's good and all that to be polite. Knowing that 50 years from now it will still be his riffs(SCOM and NR) that will make every guitar list with Jungle still blaring at stadiums across the country, and Appetite making every must have Rock list. Slash will take more vindication in that than anything he could ever say about Axl. That is just not his thing to do the whole war of words thing.

What you described might very well be the case 50 years from now.  But it would be more of a tribute to the old band than any kind of a "vindication" for Slash.

Remember, Axl and Slash didn't disagree on how great the old band was.  No doubt they were on the same page regarding that.  It's where they should go later that brought the eventual split.

If any vindication is forthcoming to either Slash or Axl, it will be whether Velvet Revolver's or the new Guns N' Roses' songs are more successful in the end.

Im guessing Slash will be one of those guys that gets an advanced copy of it

[Krispy Kreme]

I was watching muchmore music in Canada and they had a clip about Slash and how he played the national anthems at the Blue Jays game opener! He had a brief interview with the catcher from the Jays and he asked slash what would occur first the Blue Jays winning the world series or Chinese Democracy being released Slash laughed and said Blue Jays winning the world series for sure hahah? ?


Edit: Please use a subject that describes the content of the post. Thanks. /jarmo

I think the answer is obvious.

Slash has said " I just hope the fucker can finally release the album soon so I can see how he ruined something so awesome," and "Whatever goes on between me and Axl is personal, I'd like to leave it there, thanks." So its not like he's a pussy, he needs his little fans to back him up against Axl. Slash is the man ,he's moving  in the right direction and is moving on with his career. It's not about VR sounding cool or not , no offense to the man Axl but at least Slash is out there still rocking instead of hiding from  the show buisness for so long. Look at how Slash has been , whenever he tried out something that didn't work, he moved on to something new.

could be worse, he could have said the cubs

[mikegiuliana]

he was just joking around, he was with theBJ's catcher.. Damn this is from april from opening day vs the red sox... Lets see blue jay's catcher, lets say his team will win first, that would be the proper thing to say...
