Slash CNN Interview

[@HissButtBuddy]

'If we get into this conversation we are gonna be done' That's great.

[@annesevenkeys]

Slash is so fking cool...I love the way he just totally shuts her down when she tries to force the Axl issue, yet he remains polite and gracious. For such a badass he sure has a lot of class. I just adore the man.

[@waxlthegreat]

.

[@melissameeks37]

Me too

[@OAwesomeO]

I agree and disagree. I really wish he would have just spoke his mind about axl... its so damn annoying how he never truly adresses it. Just simplifys it, and moves on

[@judas2891]

People realise now that Slash, although a high school dropout, is one of the coolest, most articulated rock star on the planet. He chooses his words carefully and speaks with so much clarity. It's hard to believe that years of drugs and booze didn't turn him into a vegetable and to this day, he is still relevant. Much love and respect.

[@JonnyLullaby]

She seriously pissed him off there for a second. lol

[@OscarBenben]

Jonny Lullaby half a second

[@dionnevargas358]

I just realised how smart Slash is, his using big words, answering the questions with Class. Very handsome, he doesn't age much.

[@andrearust5364]

Slash makes me happy. When i hear his music or his interviews i feel alive. he is such a important part of my live. God bless him.

[@cherryllhill477]

He is the most down to earth hard rock dude ever..love love love Slash.

[@DanHolliday92]

I feel so honored to just live in a time with Slash's influence still hard and fast entering the hearts of every Rock&Roll lover.. Slash is rocknroll, he is the epitome of everything that it stands for.

[@StopPrism4251]

I've never seen slash say something like that in an interview. He did it with class though plus id be pretty pissed too if i was asked the same thing all the time

[@monmixer]

Also when these people agree to the interviews they normally have an agreement about where NOT TO GO. and the interviewers tend to try to push a bit in a direction that they have probably agreed not to. So he is telling her that she is crossing the line and he is going to walk out and still get his check for the interview because she crossed the line.

[@reelTruth112]

probably the most humble and relevant dude in rock & roll today...thanks bro for being there for all of us, we love you slash, peace ~tilly~

[@nhlclutch1996]

Love the way he smiles while telling her not to talk about it.

[@Allisonmarie567]

Sam Alali that's his way of saying fuck you". I'm going to say "used to" being since him & Axl are cool again. He used to do that to everyone when they'd ask the same question about Axl. It's definitely a snarky "fuck you" kinda smile. He does it often when people make him mad lol

[@joshburns4611]

@@Allisonmarie567 I took his smile to mean "Look, i'm trying to be nice and respectful, but this is your last warning."

[@mdsaifelahi2055]

the coolest guy i swear

[@75smurfette]

What is WRONG with this woman?! He already told her once he didn't want to talk about Axl. Kudos to him for handling it so well. Slash remains a classy guy.

[@joshburns4611]

She even acknowledged how annoying interviewers must be concerning the Axl topic. yet CONTINUED pushing it!

[@holdenps98]

Slash is my hero, my parents think it is for all the wrong reasons, they think I like the trashy lifestyle he lived. The fact is, Slash over came all the negative, he does what he is passionate about and even helps people and participates in fundraisers and other events to help people. He also is humble and won't get upset about all the Axl drama. Slash is open minded and a great person, he actually cares about the other people around him. I hope one day I can meet him and preform with him.

[@Allisonmarie567]

Holden Sondergeld YES. THIS. This is part of why I absolutely adore him. Most people don't know this about him.

[@Christ_Is_Life10-10]

I love Slash! He is so laid back even when he is mad he is sweet!🥰

[@Recovery82]

I feel sorry from him, having to talk about the same shit for 16 years.Not only is his guitar playing an inspiration, but also how he remains cool, calm and collective. How many times does he have to answer the same things before people give up.. I mean he wrote a book for that exact reason.

[@arnielim]

I love you slash! God gave u talent and made you famous for a very noble and a higher purpose in life. I love you! Always take care of yourself

[@OscarBenben]

« I love being able to pull an audience and go out and play that’s what I do it for, and that’s the only thing that really matters to me » SLASH

[@quincywho]

i efffing love slash. hes the best.

[@endezeichengrimm]

5:50 Ooooh..... Shut down.

[@dtothemain1434]

Love every one of Slash's interviews, Imagine if Axl & him spoke & became friends again. I can dream!

[@YesterdaysNow]

+D to The Main looks like your dream came true :) classicrock.teamrock.com/news/2015-08-24/slash-silent-on-gnr-reunion

[@dtothemain1434]

WayCoolJr. Hope so!

[@nSmatic]

+D to The Main Already happened bro.

[@dtothemain1434]

RossLinden97 it has now & I am so pleased!

[@nSmatic]

***** no reunion tho... they are just friends now lol

[@rockingstar3534]

Damn he cut the interviewer with no room for her to continue. Bad ass 👍

[@SluffAdlin]

Almost every interview you see with Slash, involved the same questions...I actually get nervous watching cause I am waiting for the awkward Guns N' Roses questions. I didn't expect Larry King to keep up with Gn'R but even in that interview you can tell Slash didn't want to talk about it. Funny thing is everybody but Slash probably knows more about what Axl is or isn't doing.

[@JMunn55]

George Stromboulopoulus here in Canada does two really good interviews with Slash without that side of things. New questions

[@SluffAdlin]

since he's been in back in Guns he hasn't done any interviews...got a chance to see them, excellent show.

[@ChanceUriahMiller]

yeah he handles the Axl issue with class. I always look forward to more of his recordings no matter who he works with, but yeah...he shut her down on the Axl hardcore

[@Vailover4ever]

Slash is so f......ing cool.Really nice interview,

[@melissameeks37]

He has so much class

[@jamiebee1231]

'if we get into this conversation we're gonna be done' lol that shut her up.

[@LesPaulBJJ]

Dear pop-up message at 2:57. Slash is not a musician, music is Slash. Thank you.

[@aylajj]

sudden closeup on his bicep haha

[@Allisonmarie567]

Sarah Farr HAHA! I look at his arms too. I'm always like "are my arms gonna get that big from learning his songs on my guitar?!!. Damn!". Hahaha

[@wildcat31772]

Also finally someone with rock influence says what he says at the end about new bands worried about fame and fortune before knowing wtf they are doing with the things they are holding. love it.

[@rjlj89]

If I wasn't in that band, it would of been my favorite band. Yep.

[@TheMan00099]

6:02 dude,I felt so awkward with this.

[@TheMan00099]

"If we get into this conversation we're gonna be done"

[@joellucy777]

8:09 I love that smile! and I LOVE SLASH!

[@wildcat31772]

Wow first time i've heard slash just lay down the hammer 'you know if we get into this conversation we're done'.

[@m.a.4949]

The cancer statement was so harsh .

[@jimmycorsa8883]

He doesn't have to talk about Axl if he doesn't want to. :P

[@KIMTEAASAP]

stop asking him about axl, ive recently become a huge fan and everyone asks the thing to each bang member especially slash, talk about GNR by all means but stop brining up reunions, old friendships and stuff that isn't irrelevant any more

[@TheMan00099]

"if we get into this conversation we're gonna be done you know that"

[@DimebagThor]

If we get into this conversation were done hahaha

[@willbennett1813]

reading the comments first, the first 6 minutes and 3 seconds is like waiting for a bomb to go off

[@Leena9517]

dont piss him off, lady.... he was still nice to you

[@DEANthePYTHON]

0:40 yes thank you editors because all of us guns fans dont know what paradise citry sounds like

[@na_panfletos_e_cartoes]

The voice her look like sound the Queen's Gambit actress

[@NOMAAM1970]

And 6 years after this the got back together

[@m.h.1783]

5:50 is when he flips out

[@saithefly]

slash might have bad qualities but he sure is one humble man

[@Jamie_Smith_Photo]

haha, i like how the tag line is "slash, musician"

[@Enoned]

my fucking room is a shrine to slash.

[@magnus-px9dq]

When he says were gonna be done is funny

[@ksherman8]

If you havent read the book , You really need to if you get the chance,, Slash just dont JUDGE... I love this guy.. Top Hats iiii|:)

[@justen98]

oh my gosh! me and slahs have the smae fav gnr song pardice city holly crap!

[@loveandsprinkles0005]

When slash gets pissed it’s sexy ...

[@agatagarcia8065]

GOOD INTERVIEW. RIGHT? PLEASANT, GOOD QUESTIONS, GOOD UNDERSTANDING, SLASH WAS CONFORTABLE, AND NOT FOR THIS, ATAC HIM, RIGHT? GOOD IN HIS MEMORY.

[@TheOffensiveToaster]

Someone went HAM

[@SeagoGuitarist]

@ItsChrispyTv That sort of thing is to be expected in the industry. It's probably refreshing for Slash to be asked difficult questions from time to time. Would you rather be asked a testing question, or asked if you prefer tea to fucking coffee?

[@kaanemirel]

Not that I recall: PARTYIN HARD BABY

[@xRosieBearx]

being the girl version of slash for Halloween? heck yeah! \m/

[@dadoubledoo]

The fact that they put rihanna in there is just offensive.

[@peggymonsterwihetmonster]

Love you so much more Peggy

[@Rck10xx]

SOOO fucking TRUE!!! !!12:45 tell em SLASH!

[@jedison1995]

i'm not in that band and it's my favorite band

4:40 is when slash starts to get pisst of lol he tells her

[@Kubandaisey305]

God, she so stupid, he doesnt want to talk about Axl Jeez! I loved the way he shut her down!LOL Love him!

[@WesleyThibodeau]

Why do they always ask the same question? Axl and Slash won't get back together, get over it! Oh wait... ;)

[@SuperDonnaWanna]

eat your words its 2018 and they were the top grossing touring band in 2017

[@TheRealCowlick]

Donna Cozzi dumb ass, didn't you get the irony?

[@proshathaghighi8927]

Oh yeah? 😂

[@RatzTeeth]

No dislikes....Axl hasn't watched this one yet....

[@MrSasuke2222]

the litte square at the left right corner that sometimes appear says musician it should say guitar legend r_r

[@REIVAJ2194]

I think I was getting more annoyed by the Axl stuff than slash himself , so annoying, its SLASH INTERVIEW so I want to know about what he is doing now or his gear or i dont know, not a freaking documentary of what everybody knows >.>

[@Allisonmarie567]

REIVAJ2194 hahaha! Seriously lol

[@joshburns4611]

If he didn't like Sweet Child, he must've hated Patience.

[@masnitumor]

Did you notice she didn't stop him in the middle of the story?

[@peggymonsterwihetmonster]

Go chasaumy muise misue Peggy guardado rock

[@SeagoGuitarist]

No, it isn't. Those are different words with unequivocally separate connotations and an adverse use of letters. In other-words, a precise manifestation of to what, in this scenario, would be considered a vehement dis-similarity. Thus rendering your argument unfounded and slightly daft! =)

[@EDDYLOL100]

can someone please tell me why slash and axl dont get on i mean what happend i know that axl is a bit mad but a little in-deph information would be good thanks

[@76Jaxter]

"It's really a sort of dead issue." Nice...:) 5:12

[@peggymonsterwihetmonster]

Good be

[@SeagoGuitarist]

I'm aware of the ridiculousness of comment sections and I wasn't particularly looking for a fight. I found the insinuation within your comment amusing enough to respond to it. If your prepared to claim a direct sentiment against someone, don't be surprised by their having a defence and a repost. What I said couldn't be clearer. To add to that, my indifference to candour on the internet isn't exactly without justification. I chose not to argue for this simple reason alone. it's mindless. =) (Y)

[@MrSasuke2222]

he already did

[@GunsNRosesliveson]

14 years of silence 14 years of pain for us lol

[@1guitarfreak4]

watch it again

[@ScoutSniperTV]

It may just be me but despite all of the bad things about Slash and Axl fighting i think there has to be something worse Slash just doesn't want to share with anyone.. i dunno but does anyone see where i'm coming from i mean he flared up to anger awful fast when she asked about them both maybe its just the rocky path and history they had though...

[@Allisonmarie567]

Art Of Stealth Being since GNR is back together now I can say "used to". (Which is awesome by the way!.) Slash used to get so defensive of Axl, because he's always loved Axl like a brother. He's says in his book that he's never held a grudge against Axl & that they were just like brothers & it always made him sad/mad to talk about it. I think that's why he would get mad when people would bring it up. I can understand where he comes from. I had a friend who was just like Axl. She came back into my life. Let's just say it didn't end up like this tour has. :/

[@DRocks77]

If there was was t be a reunion of 86 / 93 then that would b fkin awesome but im sure THEY would ANNOUNCE it why ask the same questions as asked for the past 14/15years try being original eh iv been a fan of slash since mid 80s watched em at milton Keynes 93 so t relive that would b bangin but let the guy move on if thats whats needed, and to put a question to him as a "supposed" bitter ass quote from axl was diabolical scraping barrel or wot thats not cool . Slash is kinda laid back but would av been Cool n rock n roll reaction that U wanted was to break a chair over ya freak lookin head lol . Slash u rock bro ignore the haters and was right to say im not playing that game n as always well done for keeping it professional.

[@allsystemsgo8678]

Kind of funny how everyone keeps giving him credit regarding the Axl comments. He ripped Axl in dozens of other interviews, which is probably why she kept probing.

[@vintagexparadise]

which interview did he say bad thing

[@tierefuerimmer9635]

@@vintagexparadise Tbh I can't say I recall. Slash did say in a Larry King interview on why he left and that Axl was bringing the band in a different direction and Slash just disagreed with what Axl had in mind and left. But I feel Slash has always held back with bashing Axl

''kids dress up at you at halloween'' bit of a insult?? lol

HellsHighwayTrooper nah. Slash once said on David Letterman that he dressed up as himself for halloween one year & played it off like he was someone else & someone told him "nice costume". He said that his response was "thanks man". Bhahaha. He's the only person I know who'd do that. Lmao what a dork. Haha I love him.

that swirly effect on his voice is annoying.why is it on there?

[@Abrahamhamham]

...how i fucking hate questions like "He said "blabla" about you. What do you have to say about that ?" Judging by that question, you can realize it`s a large media corporation. That`s their style. They feed on stuff like that.

Funny how slash talks about why he don't like Sweet child ... he said it's like Pop .. and then he plays with fergie , cypress hill, paulina rubio for fuck sake ...i don't get it
