guy from A7X talks bout meeting axl

[LaTeRaLuS]

hey, just been reading kerrang at uni, they have a report on the korn party axl was at, apart from the whole article was AXL AXL AXL!

Anyway, kerrang spoke to m shadows of avenged sevenfold (possibly the biggest gnr fan ever) lol. He said that he was extremely nervous when someone introduced him to axl because he's his idol, but axl was really nice so it made him feel comftorble. Axl thanked him for all the nice things he's said about guns n roses!

just thought id share it, must have been a wicked experience for him!!

[Scabbie]

Imagine, rock star at party, enjoying himself, Axl walks in - poor gurs reduced to a nervous wreck! I'd imagine meeting Axl might be a tad intimidating although he's meant to be quite relaxed

[dolphin]

I wonder if when you meet Axl if you would have a one on one convo with him, if he'd talk your ear off.


I wouldn't mind

[AxlsMainMan]

I wonder if Axl is a "close talker"....

[AxlsMainMan]

funny how m shadows was like, "Axl was so cool and nice" yet Munky Fuck seemed pissed off cause Axl stole his moment

[Elrothiel]

Well, Munky Fuck should take his head outta his ass. Axl is a fucking legend, and has EVERY RIGHT to steal his thunder!

[The Dog]

Well, Munky Fuck should take his head outta his ass. Axl is a fucking legend, and has EVERY RIGHT to steal his thunder!

Seriously, does Munky think anyone is even going to care about Korn in 15-20 years?  Does anyone care about them now?!?!?!?

[IronMaiden415]

Well, Munky Fuck should take his head outta his ass. Axl is a fucking legend, and has EVERY RIGHT to steal his thunder!

that and the fact that he hasn't made a public appearence in like 3 years. 

[Elrothiel]

EXACTLY!

[DoubleTalkingJive]

Hopefully the press from the party and the sighting at the strip club will start this whole train a rolling again.   I mean seeing Axl is bound to steel someones thunder..the man is a legend and it's the first public sighting in a long, long time that he actually spoke. That's what you get sorta for inviting the man and he actually shows up AND speaks.

[Elrothiel]

That'z what *I* was trying to say!!

Avenged Sevenfold frontman Matt Shadows recently saw Guns N' Roses during their swing through New York City earlier this month, and he said they're better than ever. Guns N' Roses first shows of the year have drawn reluctant rave reviews.

Shadows talked with us about the shows.
"Yeah, they actually played four nights. We came to the fourth night. Of course we were in Philly, and we were like, 'There's no way we're staying in Philly. We're going to go see Axl and company. So it was cool. I've met him before and I personally don't like that vibe being the guy that's trying to get back there and bug him. I know how that situation is on a way smaller level than he does. I just don't to be sitting back there all night and be like, 'Oh, Axl. Let's go bug the s--t out of him.' We just watched the show, enjoyed it, had a great time and then had a couple of drinks with our friends in Mastodon, because they were here, and took off. We're going to be on tour with them in Europe for a while so we'll have plenty of time to throwdown if he's available. Those shows are just way too overwhelming, especially for us to be trying to bug him."

Shadows has also sided with Axl Rose in the Velvet Revolver vs. Guns N' Roses debate, and he discussed why he backs the enigmatic frontman.
"I don't know, man. I go more toward the Use Your Illusion records and I know he had a major part in those. If you listen to Velvet Revolver they're a straight ahead rock band and a lot of people like that. It's not a dis on them. They have a short attention span and they just want to rock out to three or four minute songs, and just the way Use Your Illusions were put together, just like Slash said on the VH1 Behind the Music he said it's our "White Album" [legendary Beatles album considered their best work]. It's a big and complex record and once you get into it, to me it's my favorite two records of all time. From the new songs I've heard and from the demos I can tell that Axl had the biggest part in Use Your Illusion 1 and 2. They lyrics, the way he writes the lyrics, the vocal stylings was a major part of Guns N' Roses, even though you can't have Guns N' Roses with out Slash and those guys. Just to me Axl was the most important."

i like A7X and all, but M. Shadows should be careful when he says stuff like that in public... seeing how his band is gonna open for GNR this summer...
