    Scott Tells Axl The Facts

    No matter who's side your on (yes, I'm talking to you, Dave's Bitch!), you have to admit, Weiland has a point...



    "VELVET REVOLVER/ex-STONE TEMPLE PILOTS frontman Scott Weiland has slammed GUNS N' ROSES singer Axl Rose for his comments in a recent press release where he claimed that in October of 2005, VELVET REVOLVER/ex-GUNS N' ROSES guitarist Slash visited Axl's house at 5:30 one morning and said he wanted to "end the war" with Rose. Rose alleged that Slash tore into his current bandmates in VELVET REVOLVER, calling singer Weiland a "fraud," saying that he "hates" drummer Matt Sorum and describing bassist Duff McKagan as "spineless."

    The press release stated, "It would have been Axl's preference to resolve disputes with Slash and Duff in private...However, Axl could no longer sit quietly and allow the continuing dissemination of falsehoods and half-truths by his former bandmates."

    Responding to Axl's comments, Weiland wrote in an open letter, "Get in the ring. Go to the gym, motherfucker, or if you prefer, get a new wig, motherfucker. I think I'll resist the urge to 'stoop' to your level. Oh shit, here it comes, you fat, botox-faced, wig-wearin' fuck! O.K., I feel better now.

    "Don’t think for a second we don't know where those words came from. Your unoriginal, uncreative little mind — the same mind that had to rely on its bandmates to write melodies and lyrics. Who's the fraud now, bitch?

    "Damn, I couldn't imagine people writing for me. How many albums have you put out, man, and how long did it take the current configuration of this so-called 'band' to make this album? How long? And without the only guys that validated the name.

    "How dare you! Shame on you! How dare you call our bass player 'spineless?' We toured our album over a year and a half. How many shows have you played over the last ten years? Oh, that's right — you bailed out on your long-awaited comeback tour, leaving your remaining fans feeling, shall we say, a trifle miffed?! I won't even list what I've accomplished because I don't need to. What we're talking about here is a frightened little man who once thought he was king, but unfortunately this king without his court is nothing but a memory of the asshole he once was.""

    The Way I look at it. Slash and VR sound and feel like their trying to keep the GN'R legacy alive. While Axl sounds like he is trying to destroy it. It's kinda obvious to see that Contraband was the Eat 'Em and Smile Of The Split and Chinese Democracy from the Demo's I have heard is the 5150.

    Yeah, but Weiland was at his best with the Pilots. There was, I think, still a lot of creative juice left in that band...the DeLeos may have gotten tired of dealing with his drug probs or whatever, but I'd just as soon have had the Pilots not break up rather than have what is Velvet Revolver, which is nothing earth-shattering (just an above-average rock band, though I suppose there is a need for those in these dark days) considering the talent involved.

    Weiland has a major point. And another thing, I don't think Slash has ever, or will ever, make contact with Axl again. Ever since the "Mr. Brownstone" bash, Slash's hated him

    I don't think Slash realy cares one way or the other and I believe that the ONLY reason that Axl has waited so long to release his album is because he is afraid of failure. It will happen, there isn't way that this album will measure up to VR or past GNR material. Axl is a very sad shell of his former self and without the original GNR there will never be any of the 'magic' that we heard from previous albums.

    Even if you think VR sucks, their sucking is better than anything Axl could do on his best day.

    Weiland is a way better songwriter and performer than Axl anyway. I like GNR a lot...but I still much prefer STP.

    VR was pretty good...but not nearly as good as STP.

    I'd like to see AxHole's response to this....if he can get his head out of his ass....

    Magic was GNR's first album Apetitie For Destruction....
    Illusion is Axl thinking he'll ever make one like it again....or even just make one....

    Well, lets see...

    -he doesn't beat fans up for taking a picyure during a show
    -he doesn't storm of stage
    -he doesn't cancel shows at the last minute
    -he always shows up
    -he's never late
    -he has a better image
    -he has better stage moves
    shall I go on?
