Axl - Legal Press Release

[Layne Staley's Sunglasses]

Must have been about Adler or the women in his life

[Freya]

Why would Axl make up the slash showing at his house thing? It would not make anysense for him to claim something like that that never happened.

You don't think a guy known to be obsessive and paranoid, who once thought that his ex-wives were sisters in a past live out to kill him, could invent something like this in his mind?  It's way too out there to be true.  Like I said, I'm sure Axl believes it's true......but that doesn't make it so.

Must have been about Adler or the women in his life

One who really musta done him wrong ?

[crazyfool]

Im glad to see Axl take the offensive, for years the ex-gnr members been sour always talking shit on Axl. ?Axl always kept his cool, he may have his own issues he deals with, but he always took the higher road when it comes to dealing with ex members. ?Another thing is, Axl is doing his talking through lawyers, the mistake slash and duff are doing is commenting themselves and that doesnt look good for something thats going to go to court. ?

Axl hasn't kept his cool.  Axl has been missing.  Show me where ex members have talked shit on him.  not that i believe this press release anyway.

Wish....Not a great example...but Matt seemed to make fun out of axl playing the piano on songs....as if Matt though Axl was a pussy for having a piano on stage, etc.
Like I said, not a great example...but BTM had a few examples like this alone

[killingvector]

and the lyric:

Gonna make this a federal case
Gonna wave it right down in your face
Read it daily with your morning news
With a cheap hangover, and the headlines true now




Does anyone now believe that IRS Is not about our dynamic, litigious friends?

A neat observation...but doesnt the song date back to 2000?  And it was leaked in 2003...The lawsuits came about in 2004.

I hope that some of the lyrics on the album do allude to the old band...makes it more interesting to me.

It does. I wonder if it was premonition or experience?

[draguns]

All I have to say is that EVERYONE is acting like a child in this matter. They all need to grow up a bit since they are in their late 30's and 40s. It is pathetic to see your childhood heros  behaving like this.

sure oh sure, its PATHETIC.

the worst thing is this came in the worst time really. You have to wonder if this is another distraction so fans forget about CD... agh just release the damn thing already and go play in the courts when your 80 years old! 

[misterID]

Will this officially end the reunion theories? ?

I bet Matt is crying right now because he wasn't named in the lawsuit too.

[Minneapolisnewsman]

Why did no one tell axl to restrain from this kind of press release? ?Win the thing in court, but don't piss down your leg before the court date. ?It's like feeding the enemy a bottle of fuckin dynamite, and then wondering why they have so much ammunition? ?Oh well, we all have our frickin day's! ?I've fired off some e-mails to my boss, that I regretted. ?Never to the wire service though, and never without a few proofreads.

After reading this release.......I have concluded how it all went down. (a copy of my post on another forum)

Yeah I can see it now.........Axl's a night owl anyway (mid-morning parties, all night studio sessions, not even showing up until 2 am to most clubs)  so say Slash is cruising by and see's a light up there at the Axl Mansion.......he pulls up to the gate......rings the intercom......"Ugh Hello?"
Axl: "Yeah, who's this?"
Slash: "Uhm, hey dude uhm...it's Slash"
Axl: "Yeah right, stop playing fucking pranks, it's 5 AM"
Slash: "Nah dude for real it's me, I even have my top hat on."
Axl: "What the fuck do you want?"
Slash: "Hey uhm...things aren't going so well....Scott's being a dick and wants to make a dance concept album.  Duff's being spineless and I just hate Matt."
Axl: "You guys are all fags."
Slash: "So uhm I heard Buckethead left....I know someone who's interested in the job."
Axl: "Dave Kushner?"
Slash: "Nah dude, it's me, I'm gonna be honest....they're bigger dicks than you were."
Axl: "Why did you sue me?"
Slash: "C'mon, they wanted to use Sweet Child O' Mine in Gigli....that was a goldmine"
Axl: "I opted for more premium film projects such as 'Big Daddy' & 'Can't Hardly Wait'."
Slash: "Please let me in, I haven't eaten in 3 days."
Axl: "Yeah so um, you're interested in playing with GNR again?"
Slash: "I thought the band was called Fatty Mcgee and the people who aren't Slash?"
Axl: "That's it motherfucker I'm suing you, check the internet this weekend."

  good one!

[AxlFink]

Out of nowhere axl and slash were speaking nicely about eachother.  Then these leaks.  Then Slash just knew CD was coming out in March.  If he last spoke to axl in Oct that may have been the case.  If he did stop by I bet axl played him the tracks.  This actually makes a bit more sense now.  Kinda.  But then it doesnt at all.

LOL, that was a good one..

[Smoking Guns]

Great post Bill!!

But what I don't understand is this, what did Slash do not to hold up his bargain? ?Ever since Oct. 2005, I haven't heard shit from Slash that is negative about Axl.............at all!!! ?So why now? ?What happened recently to make Axl take action now? ?Is this just another reason to prevent the release of CD? ?Just kidding. ?I just don't know what Slash could have just done to cause this. ?I will say this, if this is true, then it proves that all the people that said some shit was going down with the old guys was at least half right. ?Ross Haflin, probably heard that from Slash. ?Its crazy, but maybe for a few weeks both parties actually thought about it. ?Then something happened. ?Don't know what, but something did. ?

GNR, the most dramatic band in the world.

Relapse for all GNR members starts now!!! ?Maybe if they get back on drugs they will be okay.

Drugs ARE the answer!
