GNR on another Blender list

Blenders 50 worst thing to happen ever happen to music"


47. Slash quits Guns N Roses

"Paradise City officially became uninhabitable in 1996 when Slash walked out on Axl Rose, shattering one of the best, most rewardingly volatile relationships in rock history. Not only did the split force us to endure Slash's Snakepit, but Guns n' Roses became forever an ego-tripping punch line, with Axl -- stubborn ex that he is -- running through multiple replacements (including Howard Stern look-a-like Buckethead) in a vain attempt to prove he doesn't need his old partner"

Buckethead is a Howard Stern look-a-like? I didn't knew that.

And multiple replacements? There was only one: Robin Finck. People keep forgetting that Buckethead replaced Finck (when he left to tour with NIN in 2000, I think), not Slash.

Saps, I love Snakepit, I dunno how they'd be so difficult to "endure", and Axl's still a legend with or without slash
