Steven Adler's drumming on Apetite while not the most techniquly proficient piece of work, had sould, energy and feel that all meshed well for the songs, which is what music should be. Slash isn't the most techniquly gifted guitarist but its his passion, and sense of melody and energy that make for the memorable listening experience from the album. If we wanted to hear the most techniquly proficient music it may just end up a wall of noise, a blur of 32nd notes and speed baraging the listener and while each musician is playing fast and technically sound it wouldn't sound like music, it wouldn't sound like human existance, it would just be a barage of noise. (which may be music to some as the eternal question What is and what isn't music could be asked). I do like Adlers playing on that album but in no way do i consider him great, however that record would not have been the same with another drummer, different musicians will think of things differently even if its ever so slightly, so even if they had someone playing his parts it may not have the same feel, or another drummer may have cluttered it up while another may have not played enough this debate can go on and on, people who aren't musicians often take for granted the dynamics and chemistry of a band they think just because someone isn't playing the most complicated thing they could be replaced by another musician, but its about style and emotion, once you are in a band you realize this, sure one musician may be more vital in the creation of a song or album, but in the end they all have an influence on the way the song sounds and moves. Bands aren't like orchestras where every part is written out and dictated to the musicians, each player has some control on how each part is played. Back to Adler though, I dont think he was in other bands because of his drug problems who would want to work with him, plus he doesn't seem to have the drive to want to be great, just to have a great time, so even if he did form a band afterwords it may have just shit the bed as it could have just been a lame party band but who knows.

What should Adler do? be poor and homeless?
Adler could start a band and make an album better than appetite and it wouldn't matter.
I say let him do his thing. If he wants to go to bars and play AFD, God bless him.
If parasite tribute bands can do it, surely the guy who drummed on the album can do it. No matter what u think of Steven, he has earned the right to do that if he chooses.

July 15, 2009 - Wednesday
RNFNR
Current mood: nostalgic
Hey all, what's happening? Everything's good on this end. It has been a pretty productive summer so far. My record should be done next month & the recording has gone smoothly & sounds fucking great.
Steven Adler played on the 1st of the last 3 tracks yesterday, along with Flea on bass. The song kicks ass & the drums & bass sound so recognizable & sound so fucking good. Steven is staying clean, which is great, flea is just amazing, period. Steven, Flea & I all lived & met in the same neighborhood in West Hollywood back in the day. Yesterday, we had a great time reminiscing about when we all 1st started playing Rock & Roll & how school didn't fit into the plan, we were like 15. Flea was the 1st one to join an "established" band called "Anthem," I remember being envious. I had a band called "Tidus Sloan" but we didn't have a singer. Sound familiar? Steven & I didn't really have a band together until a few years later when we joined Nikki Sixx's old band "London" after Izzy left. Which, incidentally, was very short lived.
Izzy came down & played on a track a couple weeks ago, that sounds great too. It was good to see him, it's been awhile. Our guitars together really do have a sound all their own.
Besides having some friends of Eric Valentine's come down from Northern California & play cello & violin on a track, I haven't had any other guest musicians so far. Having Flea, Steven & Izzy play has been a real gas. There might be a couple more surprise musicians on this record I think.
The movie I scored while I was writing songs for my record last summer, "This is not a movie," is in it's final production stage & being shopped for distribution. I went to a closed screening of it at Warner Bros a couple weeks ago, its a really dark but funny movie, very indie & very raw. It really surprised me to hear/see it all put together. The score is awesome & almost entirely comprised of electric guitar. It gives the picture a distinct musical personality, which has many moods. Edward Furlong & Peter Coyote star in it, by the way & are phenomenal. Its funny, Edward Furlong was teenage delinquent "John Conner" being chased by the Terminator in "Terminator 2." His key scene was when he was escaping on his motorcycle to the tune of GnR's "You could be mine." Now he is staring in a movie that I did all the music for 18 years later.
The Norway gig happened & was a fucking blast. The band (Jason Bonham, John 5, Ted Andreadis & Franky Perez) was amazing & Ozzy, Fergie & Ronnie Wood were stellar to say the least. But, what really made the gig great was the crowd, they were pretty fucking fantastic. There is some talk of doing some more shows like that in the not too distant future, its too good of a time.
There's a lot of stuff coming up actually, all good. As it happens I will keep you up to date in as timely a fashion as I am capable.
Ok, that's all folks, for now anyway, talk to you again soon.
Yours,
Slash iiii||; ),
