Duff Mckagan Responds To AXL ROSE

[makane]

Maybe he was asked and he wanted to answer something.

If thats the case and he doesnt know anything he can either say no comment or say I havnt spoken to Axl and or Slash so I dont know if its true or not.....

theres a very good chance he doesnt know anything....but then how does Scott know something? or maybe he doesnt know anything either and he just decided to play the role of rnr frontman.....who knows

Knows or not, but he felt that Axl including that segment on his statement was unnecessary and insulting. (Scott answered how he answered, maybe not the best way.)

Okay, that just made my head spin.

Maybe Axl is sick n tired of the "games" SLash and or Duff are palying and decided to tell everyone that Slash in fact visited him and said some stuff. Read Madagas post in this thread....

Also, does it really matter that it was mentioned in that press release? What if Axl came out the next day and said that? Is that a better time or place? Axl felt it was something that needed to be said. He has said zilch in regards to VR over the past 2 yrs so I highly doubt hes lieing

WHy is it insulting if true? As Axl said on the 02 tour.."The truth Hurts"

[WARose]

my sincerest respect to duff!!



scott and to a smaller extent axl should learn a lesson from duff imo...

[killingvector]

Got to give respect for Duff. He knows what the deal is, he didn't rule out Slash's role in this whole mess because it seems that he don't really know what the thing, neither does Scott know but still he is barking like a dog with hydrophobia.

And this is the root of the problem.

Axl's allegations have legs.

[JB9988]

oh well im just pissed that scott got his panties all up in a bunch bc of something slash said. But Duff knows slash said those things thats why hes not getting involved.

[journey]

Congrats to Duff. He's a mature adult. It would be nice if more people had the same kind of attitude as his.

I don't think its 100% fair to judge what Axl said or even Scott...CLEARLY there is something that went on behind the scenes that we don't know about - maybe they were both totally justified in their reactions and maybe Duffs response (or lack thereof) is really the worst of all???  If the behind the scenes stuff was really really bad then he should speak up about it.  But the problem is we have NO Clue what that stuff is.....so one can only speculate.  Still, I think the focus should be less on the verbal bashings and more on the WHY is there all this verbal bashing?

Maybe this, maybe that. And yes, I read madagas's post, but it's just speculation. Im not gonna start arguing with you about some subject neither of us really have any waterproof material to bring in.
It's so frustrating to argue with some of you 'cause you have so one sided opinion.

[McDuff]

Well I think Duff said the right things and I am sick of people saying shit about him.He make a good statement and people keep saying he's spneless,well the people saying that are kissing Axl's ass as usual,anyway,I just want to hear what Slash has to say about all of this,we've already heard from Weiland,ofcourse he was really childish in his statement and so was Axl when he said what he said,but I just want to hear what Slash has to say.I don't give a fuck what anyone else has to say really,and Matt should keep his big mouth shut.

[younggunner]

What is so one sided of my opinion?

he was really childish in his statement and so was Axl when he said what he said,but I just want to hear what Slash has to say.I don't give a fuck what anyone else has to say really,and Matt should keep his big mouth shut.

WHy is Axl childish? WOuldnt you want to know as a GNR fan that Axl and Slash have met or atleast spoke on some level?

What if Slash came out 1 day and said Axl came to him and wanted them back in GNR? WOuld you all consider that childish? Of course not, all of you would leap out of your tophats and say "see Axl knows he cant do anything without the old band,etc"...

Whats childish is the little digs Slash and Weiland have been throwing at Axl over the past year or so. Weilands comments on Axls eyebrows etc...or he and Slash dressing up as GNr...now that schildish..or is it rnr? You cant have both

But I agree otherwise...I wanna hear what Slash has to say

If thats the case, we should all stop posting!! haha.  95% of the posts on here are opinion or speculation...its all we really got for the most part.

Slash also said when talking about Chinese being done and released in March that he got his information from a very official source...he implied an extremely official source....I think Axl himself. Could this be related to the Ross Halfin original Gnr reunion rumors? Maybe Slash and Axl were actually going to reunite and something caused Slash to back out......Something definitely happened between Slash and Axl. Speculation of course but alot of things are very peculiar. Duff definitely did NOT categorically deny a meeting between Slash and Axl.

When was the Ross's hoax? When did Slash start to say CD in march?
Remember
it was 10 January, 2006 when Richard wrote to this idiot from some other board who sent him a couple of mails saying like "gnr members keep lying to fans. slash knows CD release is in march when you don't".
Unlike his other mails including the one he previously made to the wanker, this one dripped with
sarcasms.
And Mysteron suggested that someone (Axl) might have influenced him in the previous few weeks.

You believe Slash, huh? You think he knows more than everyone else you
quoted previously? God bless you. I hope Santa was good to you. Keep
holding your breath man, March is right around the corner.

well.... i think it`s not very great to insult each other via press releases as (supposedly) matured persons....

axl didn`t call slash or anybody names in his, but he started all this shit......

duff responded in a way, i`d expect a grown up man to....

But did "axl start this"??  Maybe he escalated it....but I think SOMETHING must have happened for him to include that paragraph in his PR - otherwise its just coming totally out of the blue and contradicting all the good feelings and quotes we heard from Axl and Slash about each other.

what are you talking about?

[ppbebe]

Who started this?

It's a counterclaim for gods sake!

[Oh My Choking Soul]

Good job Duff.

[green]

Alright,whoever is saying Duff answer in a mature way without trashing Axl.It is because he has nothing to say to Axl cuz he know that Slash talk shit on him and his bandmates.So he can't rely on anybody or goto Axl....Anyway i feel sorry for Duff

[younggunner]

hes in a tough spot....
