Up until the UYI Tour, Slash rarely played wah live on this song because he went straight guitar to amp in those days and his pedals weren't great in a live setting.  With more money came better touring equipment and he was able to use the wah in a live setting again.  I assume he didn't use wah here because he was standing in for a song or two and didn't want to go through the trouble of bringing his wah out for one song if someone in the band didn't have one.  I agree the wah adds passion to the solo.  But a wah will cover up a lot of mistakes, so in that regard it was nice to not have the wah so we could hear that he can still hit all the right notes.

you want to take me up on my bet?

kelly clarkson, miley cyrus, nickelback.  1 of 3 within 1 year.  $100.   

Nope, cause he has already jammed with Chad Kroger of Nickelback and already performed with one idol winner, why not 2.

Ok, so let me get this straight

Slash didnt want a power ballad on AFD and that makes him a sellout?


I dont care how bad Slash "HATED" the song

without slash there never wouldve been a SCOM and without SCOM, one could say, GNR wouldn't be the phenomenon it is today.

FACT!

Slash doing dumb things like this.


 Huh

Whenever I hear Slash speak he certainly doesn't come across as "dumb". He is very well spoken actually.

Without Axl recognizing the potential of that joke guitar intro Slash played, there would be no SCOM to talk about.

I beg to differ, I think Slash works great with people when he  is guided. I see it time and time again on stuff he does with  other artist.  HE comes up with awesome solos. BUT!< why can he do that with bands he is now, Why isn't there a stand out solo from any VR record, or Snakepit? and if you think you can prove me wrong Id be happy. BUT NO! all of his past came from cohesion, and pushing, to get the best. And also when he has worked with other artist he has delivered great solos. Its not that Axl and Slash are inclusive, he took himself out yrs ago! that is FACT!

I think u are listening to VR with an agenda not wanting to like something. Slither has a very good guitar solo, so does FTP, Lovin The Alien, Suckertrain Blues.

I wonder how many people "listen" to the music without letting Scott ruin it for u.


Slash and Axl are musical soulmates. They can both do good without one another but those two have Chemistry that comes around maybe once every 20 years.  Richards/Jagger, Plant/Page, Iommi/Osbourne, May/Mercury  Perry/Tyler,  Slash/Rose

Very very short list

I do believe Slash is satisfied and doesnt want to work as hard. It happens when people get Rich and famous and all that. Happens to athletes, tons of people.

Hearing Axl talk about those mean bluesy riffs Slash was coming up with but didnt want to develop makes me sad just wondering how great it couldve been.


Lastly, U are wrong about Slash being pushed cause that is irrelevant and doesnt even matter. I dont give a shit how hard Axl pushed Slash, it was still Slash that ULTIMATELY came up with those riffs and solos.

Give Axl another guitar player and he can push them for 20 years and they still wouldnt come up with the stuff Slash did.

Slash also was good at pushing axl also see "Coma"

fuck yea it does.   second half the solo, thats the way it sounds best IMO.    When I saw GnR in Las Vegas last year the one of the most intense parts of the show was when that wah kicked in.

Exactly and who exactly WROTE that part?


Im not proud of Slash playing with Fergie, I said I was embarrassed. He still sounded great on the song and its still not as bad as playing with NSync.


Oh you just had to go there today didn't you? Lets break it down, Richard did session work on their album to get paid. Slash is going around playing with fergie for a different reason all together, cause he sure as hell isn't getting paid to play a few songs with her live. That's the difference with that.

If you're going to bemoan someone for doing session work, then look at your precious slash and blackstreet.  Roll Eyes

As much as I don't care that much for Fergie, I thought she did pretty good with the song, and it was awesome hearing Slash play SCOM again, in it's entirety.

Dude you are such a fuckin Hater Bro! Face it Slash is an ICON! He can play and will play with whomever he wants and it will still be cool! You need to understand that Slash's Legacy is set as one of the all time greatest guitarists. It does not matter who he plays with because that will not tarnish that Legacy. Do you think Jimmy Page's Legacy as a guitar player is tarnished because he played with P. Diddy. Absolutely not!

If Axl did a duet with Miley Cyrus you would be saying... Axl is a marketing genious! First Rock Band 2 now Miley Cyrus then the View, and Finally Oprah's CD of the month club! CD is going to outsell AFD for sure! Round TWO!

Slash jams with Fergie because he likes to play and now he is a sellout. I understand you are sad because Robin did not play on this years Nikolodian awards, but I promise you it is going to be alright. I wish Axl would be out there performing with other Artist. Even if it is not your cup of tea, which I could totally understand, I still think that it is cool to see some of the musicians you like performing with other artists who you would not normally associate them with. Who would have thought Axl and Elton John were going to be a big hit? On paper it does not look that cool, does it?

Slash is well respected and liked by most in the music industry and that is why he gets invited to play with so many artists. Although you may think it would be stupid to play with Fergie, she is actually one of the top selling artist right now and so are the Black Eyed Peas plus they get a lot of air play. So maybe Slash is planning to have her sing on his Solo Album and he is putting himself out there to a different audience that may not necessarilly be exposed to Slash's music. Like her or not she sells and that is what the music industry cares about. If GNR performs at the VMAS they would essentially being doing the same... exposing themself to a mixed audience, not all Rock or GNR fans, putting there music out there. Are they sellouts. NO!They would be smart! Great, and more power to them.

P.S. Isn't it ironic that Slash gets bashed for playing with artist from different musical backgrounds than his while maintaining his musical roots, however Axl gets praised for wanting to completely change the style of music that GNR plays altogether and that is cool. HMM! Strange.
