Axl - Legal Press Release

[leesixxrose]

Slash has lied alot in the past............. He said he showed up at the HRC hotel and just "happened to find out that GNR was playing there".....

yet Slash announced the shows a week before GnR did..... he said something like "I heard Axl is playing again on New years"


Slash is a liar... hes been sniffing around Axl's new band and project for years..... I bet Axl has other stories that chooses to hold back...

Im going with Axl on this one and im thinking the Press Release Mysterion posted is 1000 percent true.....

Maybe they had a change of heart and pulled that paragraph out on the one they send the newswires... who knows... but Slash is a liar... that is fact....

Its also convenient that Slashs criticisms of Duff and Matt are identical to Axls.

Exactly. ?It sounds like one big paranoid delusion. ?Axl is now officially nuttier than Howard Hughes and Phil Spector put together.

this is no joke now. I just hopt this doesnt hurt the tour or the release of C.D

Odd that just a month and-a-half ago, Axl hadnt spoken to Slash in 10 years.  Turns out it was only 4 months.  Some posters on here like to talk about "changing stories"...

What was it that happened between then and now that set this off?  The lawsuits been pending for 2 years or so now and it was only January that he said, in addition to not speaking to Slash for 10 years, "I love the guy."

By the way, did VR release a press statement for their lawsuit?

In all fairness, the press release never said that Axl and Slash spoke.  What Slash said could have been picked up by security cameras/microphones, or Axl could just have sat there and listened to what Slash said without responding. 

And, yes, smeagol2124 is right, there's no way Axl's lawyer would allow this press release to come out without proof to back up what was written.  He's a lawyer, for Christ's sake.

Right.. and lawyers never lie.

I never said that lawyers never lie.  This lawyer is part of a very big and very well-known firm.  I don't think he would risk tarnishing his reputation and therefore damaging his business by putting his name on a press release that contains information he knew to be unfounded.

Are you kidding me? He works for Axl! If Axl calls him and says, "hey slash came over and we swam in my pool and cried together and watched DVD's now issue a press release" he has to. He can ADVISE his client one way or the other but when it comes down to it he's Axl's employee. When Axl says jump he says how high. It isn?t his job to uncover the truth, he isn?t a detective he is a representative for Axl in the legal realm. If the comments cause a legal shit show he's happy as a clam he the one on the clock defending Axl, its in his best interest.

Its not in Axl's best interest if this is considered libel.  Just b/c it would mean more $ for the lawyer doesn't mean hes going to advise it.  if word gets out that this guy is getting his clients into more shit and the cases are dragging on and on and on, nobody is going to go to him.

Guns N'Roses // Velvet Revolver fight starts now 

i would like to see scott duff & matt faces right now

They cant post lies in press releases. Well, they can, but this will be used in court, and if its a lie they will loose the whole damn thing.

And its not nice to say Axl's a nut either.

Slash has been lying in the past...

Its all very plausible.

Who gives a fuck if Slash was there or not there.....that point has nothing to do with Axl's counterclaim against S/D'S lawsuit. You guys focus on the wrong shit. Axl and Slash aren't friends and never will be again-get over it. It's all petty bullshit among spoiled drama queens.

[ppbebe]

I bet this was not the first time but this time the whole convo was recorded.

[Freya]

Obviously he has the security gate video camera tape to prove that slash was there.

Yeah, right, that will be the day we see that. ?Axl needs to back on the meds.

I agree absolutely. But some people like to fuel the 'Axl is a liar' debate. Others like to condemn Axl whenever he stands up for himself. As I've said earlier, Slash and Duff have made statements through their attorney; this is Axl's response. Good for him.

They released a press statement about the lawsuit?

[Death Cube K]

Do anyone know what happens to attorneys that post lies in press releases to the world?

Their lawyer made a statement after the ASCAP lawsuit was filed. He called Axl a thief and defrauder.

To me, it's a huge point. ?I never gave a damn about their bitchy lawsuits to begin with, could care less. ?But to release a public statement telling details of a meeting that may not in fact have taken place......well, I know Axl isn't by nature a liar, so that's just schizo territory. ?

[Mr.Bootlegs]

Guys just sit back with a bucket of popcorn and see what happens. A lot of these posts are needless and really hard for someone to sift through if they have just came back on after a day or two.

they get sued by mysteron

Yeah, I know, but the day we see evidence of it in this instance, is the day I eat my hat.

[Booker Floyd]

So there was no press release for the first lawsuit.

I vaguely recall what youre referring to, but wasnt there a response from Merck or Axls attorney?
