It's funny that you don't see Slash mentioned in this thread, as popular as he is. It's true that he didn't make the band, neither did Axl. It was a joint chemistry that made GNR and by what they have tried to do as individuals proves that without question (other than this gig).
Wanna see one trashed Slash????????????????? Too funny, he is just gone. Look at the band staring at him completely lost and trying to save it.........
