Slash Talks 'Living the Dream,' First Guns N' Roses Reunion Rehearsal

[@MyName-cj4em]

Slash is An Absolute GENIUS. His Guitar Playing Is A MAJOR ROLE In Musical History. It Would Be Legendary IF G'N'R Made One More Album.

[@TheRealCowlick]

Mr E No point in doing it if Izzy doesn't participate

I'm happy for Slash, he seems in a good place. Gets to scratch the big live performance/money itch with Guns, and scratch his creative itch in between tours. Like everyone, just wish the two could be fused.

Great interview, Slash has the best vibe. Let's hope for a new GNR album. That would be amazing!

That was a good interview, I agree. That's how its done.

[@igorgodfig]

Slash, please, don't let the Snake Pit songs be forgotten!! They are amazing man!!

[@charveljackson6346]

Interviewer needs to let Slash speak more, he talks way to much. This interview sounds to rushed because the interviewer is constantly waiting for Slash to stop talking so he can start talking again. LOL... Let Slash breath, almost like he's not listening to Slash. Slash is a brilliant songwriter!!!

[@michaelshane9726]

Typical radio interviewer, they fear half a second of dead air.

[@casualpreparedness2347]

Exactly ! 🤔😎

[@skybluemarshall]

@@sonofaguppy6708 I thought he was okay. When Slash talked, he listened and waited for him to pause. Yes, he was obviously excited and asked a lot of questions and the pace was pretty quick. But he was very attentive at times, especially when Slash was talking about horror films. I think the rapid pace just made it seem like he wasn't listening. He rarely cut Slash off, interrupted him or talked over him like many interviewers do. I'd give him a solid B, maybe a B+. His questions were pretty decent and he allowed Slash to talk about recent events and projects, rather than bringing up the distant past every two minutes like some interviewers do. It's not like he was doing a bad impression of Chris Farely's fan boy, interviewing Paul McCartney and asking dead-end questions like, "Hey, member when you were with the Beatles? That was awesome". Ha ha! I loved that character.

[@skybluemarshall]

@@sonofaguppy6708 Ha ha! Yeah, Farley did the same bit several times, with other guest hosts, but it was funniest when he did it with Paul, because the man is such a living legend, that it was easy to relate to Chris Farley's character. When Farley was still alive, I always thought it would be funny to call into a radio or telvision interview with Chris and say, "Member that time you interviewed Paul McCartney and you kept hitting yourself in the head saying, "stupid! stupid!"? Member that? That was awesome!"

[@roymeadows1708]

This guy should seriously be included in the list of all time great guitarists. Absolute beast of a musician.

[@ryanlough4940]

this guy is LOVELY and SO laid back. and VERY intelligent.

[@AllySay]

I’m more of a pop music lover, but Slash is someone who I really admire as an artist, whether it’s GnR or his solo endeavours, he has it all. I saw him live back in 2010 and he blew my mind and have been a huge fan since. He’s a proper top bloke.

[@wndowpayne]

[@scottmacleod9830]

Because you were worried about him in your higher plane, ewww stones....look out!!

[@afrocoolio25]

I want a new GnR album, but I am a bit nervous. We all need to remember that a MAJOR contributor to most of the GnR classics was Izzy. If Izzy is not involved in the writing process, GnR will sound different. Izzy gave GnR the sloppy bluesy riffs when Slash was able to polish them and add finite guitar playing. Duff was punky, and of course Axl wrote most of the lyrics and most of the piano in GnR.

[@sandysovie8560]

Slash started years ago and never stopped.The Best always survive and keep going!

[@rebelrocker3743]

Im watching this after its been released, The more I listen to it the more im liking it, I think when guns go off like Myles and Slash, When velvet came out, They seem more content and are just playing like they wanna play !

[@stephaniejade7056]

It's nice to see Slash not trash-talking Axl, but what did he mean by, "Duff and I have an immediate connection, but then Axl walked in and it was like wow" -- he should have explained that a bit more (or the interviewer should have asked for more). Glad GNR is back together -- best wishes this time around: need a full interview w/ all band members tho.

You know you’re a legend when you get to work with Michael Jackson.

[@Serioussmile51]

Just as long as everyone gets their chance at a 'Paradise City'. Which should be 'So Easy' if only they'd stop being 'Estranged' with each other. But the singer felt they were 'Out Ta Get Me' but during '14 Years' he had a major 'Attitude' change while walking along the 'Street Of Dreams'. He was saved by taking a 'Nightrain' to 'Madagascar', found himself 'Knocking On Heavens Door' which was answered by 'Mr.Brownstone'. Realised 'It's So Easy' with the other guys in the band and now they're all done with the 'Double Talkin' Jive'. So, the band agreed they wasn't 'Dust N Bones' and all choose to 'Get In The Ring' with 'My Michelle' where they were told 'Don't Cry'. Because they had 'Sympathy For The Devil'. But for right now, I need to stop typing Guns N Roses puns lest people believe I'm beating a 'Dead Horse'. 😬😂😂🤣🤣🤣

I am glad that Slash got to do his own music exploration. I don't think that another GNR would necessarily be great - most of "Use Your Illusions" was already poor of ideas, with just a handful of memorable songs. Seems he has a good chemistry with Myles Kennedy and other musicians. I am glad he can't continue to surprise the audience with good rock music.

[@hauntedgirl3272]

Wow!! That interviewer needs to cool his jets. His speech pattern and mannerisms make me anxious.
