Axl and Duff interview this sunday for Brazilian TV (now with Izzy's response)

[Voodoochild]

Nice!  Is this show fluff or will they ask good questions?

Super fluff. It will be half-assed questions like "what do you like in Brazil?" or "how do you feel now being old?".

Of course, it will be heavily edited and it won't say much, but I do hope they make Axl speak about how they reunited. At least, this. But don't expect much, this is worse than an interview with Fox News.

That's exactly what I was going to say. Also expect a few wrong infos about the band. Globo is like Fox in America.
First time I will watch this show in like 10 years probably..anyway, will be cool to see them together doing an interview as a band. I can't even remember Axl doing it with one of the guys in the nineties. He used to do it by himself.

Not sure if you're Brazilian, but I def not going to watch the show. I'll just wait for the video to pop up online - globo videos take only some minutes to show up online. And Im sure it will be on YouTube and stuff like that soon after.

Good to know. Thanks.
I don't watch any of their stuff, so I don't even know what kind of stuff they put on.
You're saving me from suffering.

Oh god.. that pretty much sums up what we're gonna see.

Rough translation:

Brazilian Nanny

Behind the scenes of the interview with Guns N' Roses leader Axl Rose for tomorrow's "Fantastico", the fellow [journalist] Alvaro Pereira Jr heard more Portuguese than English. It's because the 54 year old rockstar told that his life now is "totally" controlled by a Brazilian... family, from Santos (SP state).

The leader of the group, Ms. Beta, 58, is Axl's secretary and "nany" for 26 years. "This Brazilian family controls my life, [they] whip me, obligue me to do things", the singer joked.

So when exactly can we see this?

[jarmo]

I believe the program itself starts at 9pm local time, but who knows when they'll air the actual interview segment.

It'll be 9pm Brasilia time in about two hours.

Think I'll get some sleep then and watch it tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing what they've to say and what sort of chemistry there is between them after all these years. Would be cool to see Slash there too but that's a whole other interview really.

Just watched
Pretty cool short interview with Beta, Fernando, Vanessa and Axl / Duff

The news is: AXL CALLED SLASH TO PLAY TOGETHER AGAIN

Axl told that Steven is not 100% because of his back surgery and they could not count with Izzy because if they decide to do anything, they don?t know if Izzy will be there haha

[Bazfreak]

Wow..it was a nice interview!! Talked even about Izzy!!

[Thiago]

Axl said he called Slash back in 14!

[Bazfreak]

Highlights:

Axl authorized team Brazil to start negotiations with Duff and Slash in 2014 for the Coachela show! Coachela organizer was the spark for the reunion.
Axl called Slash in 2014.
Axl and Slash first met in person in October 2015 in Axls house!! Took so long because Slash was on tour!
Reporter asked about Izzy and Steven....Axl said Steven cant play much because undergone surgery recently!! And said Izzy is unpredictable...
Axl said they met, went straight to rehearsals and got to work.

THEY?RE DOING A RECORD!!

[Bazfreak]

THEY?RE DOING A RECORD!!

Axl presented material do Duff and Slash!! I'm really susprised with this interview..

[RnT]

I told you that we will hear something new in this interview 

[Bazfreak]

I told you that we will hear something new in this interview 

From what Axl said...we now can confirm that Izzy was definitely contacted but he just does what he does....thats a big shut up for the cry babies who kept whining about Izzy not being part of this!

[14 Yrs Of Silence]

Glad you guys hedged on what we would get from this interview because now I'm pleasantly surprised!  

If I could be a fly in the room when Axl had Slash over for dinner!  But its kind of funny, as Axl really downplays the whole thing.  Definitely seems to be a bigger deal for us than him!  

But the right question would be, given the tour name, Not In This Lifetime, which Axl had stated several years ago, what changed in his mind and his heart to turn the page?

[Bazfreak]

Interesting Duff saying they wanted to make the Chinese songs as if it was their own!

[chineseblues]

Anyone got this on YouTube? I can get th video to play on that site.

[JAEBALL]

Damn that was really cool .... Got a lot more than I thought we would ...

[Bazfreak]

Damn that was really cool .... Got a lot more than I thought we would ...

Yep..the reported did his homework...he seemed prepared!! It was a nice one...usually Fantastico interviews are crappy but this one was very good!

I think it is a big deal for him too. I just think he doesn't want to get into details, maybe he's not comfortable doing that. He doesn't really say much about the meeting.
