Five years experience? Wow.
So it's even less prestigious than I thought...
/jarmo
That's what I was getting at.
I can't believe that people can't accept that a few people maybe are a little surprised at what getting inducted in the walk of fame involves. And god forbid, maybe them same people have came to the conclusion that it's not the amazing thing it is made out to be.
And please don't try to justify will.i.am getting inducted, because if you do, it makes it seem like you are totally biast. The fact is will.i.am is no legend, not even close. So if someone like him gets inducted, why is it hard for people to accept that some others may think it's not as prestigous as once thought?.

Couldnt care less to be honest; it is what it is
the whole Walk of Fame was created to draw in tourists to revitalize a downtrodden section of LA

Yeah but that can be said about anything. whether it be a grammy, or an academy award.. u can always point to something else to try and discredit or make it not seem like a big deal.
like the grammy, when VR won, what did people do? well Jethro Tull won back in 1980 whatever so grammys are meaningless etc. they take one thing and twist it into undermining the entire accomplishment. so just cause jethro tull won, grammys now are null and void.
it would be like someone coming on here and bragging how GNR or Bon Jovi or Kiss or whomever sold out Madison Square Garden and then some non fan turning that into "Well Britney Spears and Miley Cyrus sold it out also"
u can discredit anything if u want, or u can make it out to be a big deal if u want. just depends on what side of the fence u are on with the person in question.
Will I Am has done major things in the pop/hip hop world.. i personally hate everything he has done, but sales figures, chart success etc doesn't lie.

Well and you get upset when somebody points out how Grammy awards are pretty much bought by the record company. Another promotional campaign so to speak.
It is what it is. Some of you get upset when facts are pointed out because you want it to be this important magical mystery achievement that only those who truly deserve it get.
When somebody points out that that's not how the real world operates, you get upset.

Sales figures? Is that how the art is measured?
MC Hammer, Milli Vanilli and Vanilla Ice has sold a bunch of records too. Do they all have stars?
They probably had careers that lasted over five years too.

Slash is very deserving of this award. It is basically a landmark of Hollywood.
I'm sure that one day some of the "other" members will get a star.

Jarmo, its the walk of FAME! Not walk of "best band, actor, guitarist, singer" ever. Its for famous people. There are way too many people on that list that shouldn't be there, but Slash isn't one of those people.

in Jarmo's defense, i don't think he is saying Slash doesn't deserve one, only it isn't the "honor" maybe we all thought it was to get one.
I honestly thought u were selected by an independent committee or something.. I didn't know like your wife could nominate u etc.
does diminish it a bit i agree
still cool though
but wasn't exactly how i thought it went down.

probably no one cared enough to find out until Slash got the nod
I never knew how it happened, and never really cared to know, and now that i do know, i could still care less
Slash gets the nod and all of a sudden, we got hundreds of experts on the nomination process to get a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame
next there will be a online petition to change the nomination process b/c irate GnR fans don't approve of the nomination and selection process

Its not a huge deal, and honestly, I figured he already had one. The people making the biggest deal are not what I would call "fans" of Slash.

When Slash gets his star, he should release a music video were he comes up from underground (under his star) and starts soloing like a madman. (like estranged).
That would be a great act of self promotion and id love to see some peoples reactions to that.

It would be cool if he plays something during the ceremony, but I doubt it.

Finally you see what we are saying. I really don't think anyone really cares about him getting a star, it was more that it really isn't as big a deal as people think it is.
