❤❤❤ so cute Slash is
I'm glad you did November Rain my best moment in the song is when you came out not just with the guitar with the lyrics that you came out you with I am so proud and sorry for the pain we felt at that time now knows why Please is a can help explain what cousins did to me love you still just knowing where and why the church is in too songs still have pain why is all I am left with Chrissy real name Christina Wrigley now ( Redhouse) Adam and I are done I can't put up with alcohol and his insisting to have sex with many people in front of me I can't do it anymore bro
slash intro and solo in sweet child of mine is my drug when I was kid, I always dreaming of play it like him.
At one point Joe Perry wanted to buy the guitar back and asked Slash How much he wanted for it. Slash asked 'Perry not to make him do that'. On Perry's Slash have him his guitar back as a birthday present. Class act.
Lost some of his teeth maybe dark bags under eye lids hence the Aviators , all because of 'Mr. Brownstone' came knocking and would'nt leave him alone.. tsk tsk
Disagree. His iconic moment was climbing up on the piano and his blistering solo closing out the song!
Slash speaks very calmly😊
🪇🪇🪇
😂😂😂😂😂DE LA IGLESIA SI POR SUPUESTO 👍
I had a poster of Perry playing that guitar. At the mic, tube from the talkbox in his mouth, black leather jacket with an MC5 button on it. Priceless cool.

Damn son. You need to lay of the canollis Mark. Lil chunker.
i like how Slash sort of re framed the question that goes directly to whats special about the question: kids recognising cool guitar instead of him looking cool. made him seems smart and emotionally intelligence.
