I think it's great when the interviewer asks Slash about Axl and he says "has his head up his sphincter", Slash goes, "stop giving him a hard time"
That's just one of the MANY times I have heard Slash defending Axl Rose.
I like this kind of interview, coz it's proof that Slash doesn't want to dwell on stuff and certainly doesn't want to slag Axl off, unless he needs to get a specific point across (like when he said "the little bastard then went and dissed me on stage that night!"
