More quotes by Slash
It's not so much about how good a player you are, its how cool you are.
Slash
I am married and I have two kids now, and I love them all to death. So I am trying to put all that together and maintain the same pace I've been keeping. But really, I relish what we do. A year and a half sounds like a cakewalk to me.
Slash
I once asked Axl why he left the 'E' off his name. He started crying and said he thought he'd spelled it right.
Slash
I was the one that allegedly quit and joined my old band. That wasn't true. But it was said so matter-of-factly on the Internet that the guys weren't really sure what I was up to.
Slash
My dad is a huge rock and roll lead guitar fan. I didn't even really know that until recently. Everything has to have a guitar solo in it.
Slash
When we weren't being transcendent we specialized in self-inflicted disaster.
Slash
Guitars are like women. You'll never get them totally right.
Slash
Experiencing yourself out of context, divorced from your usual point of view, skews your perspective – it’s like hearing your voice on an answering machine. It’s almost like meeting a stranger or discovering a talent you never knew you had.
Slash
I guess you could say there are two Slashes. There's the crazy, rock-and-roll Slash, he's wild. And then there's the real Slash- he collects miniature soaps and treats his hookers real nice.
Slash
I don't physically put Appetite For Destruction in and listen to it, but I hear it on the radio or at sporting events or wherever else it pops up, and it's great. I dig everything about it. When I hear Appetite, it sounds like exactly what it was. It sounds like a record made by an angry bunch of kids.
Slash
If it had been any different, if I had been born just one minute later, or been in the wrong pace at the right time or vice versa, the life that I've lived and come to love would not exist. And that is a situation that I would not want to consider in the slightest.
Slash
For me, the original Guns N' Roses is the embodiment of a certain kind of chemistry that really couldn't be duplicated.
Slash
GET YOURSELF TOGETHER DRINK TILL YOU DROP FORGET ABOUT TOMORROW AND HAVE ANOTHER SHOT
Slash
When I see footage of Guns N' Roses, I see that fu**ing hunger and attitude. You could not f**k with those five guys. It was just raw. It was this lean, hungry thing on its way up. It was as sincere as any rock 'n' roll that I've ever heard, and I'm proud of that.
Slash
I always loved rock guitar. I just never put it together that that's what I'd end up doing.
Slash
That's one of the cool things about going to local bars: seeing what people are doing and jamming with them. I'm a huge advocate of jamming with others you learn a lot. So I love to go and do that - even if people wipe the stage up with you.
Slash
I love playing music as much as if not more so than I did when I was 19 that compared to most of my peers is pretty surprising. I wake up every day and get really excited about doing stuff that I have been doing for the last 30 years. I just love it.
Slash
The era itself has nothing to do with anything. We weren't really attached to that at all. I just saw this thing where they had a Poison concert on VH1, and to me, that is being attached to an era.
Slash
Axl [Rose] is not the type of person to make something up. So I was sort of shocked that he went that direction. That caused me a lot of problems.
Slash
Whenever society gets too stifling and the rules too complex, there's some sort of musical explosion.
Slash
