Something Axl Would Do

Reading Slash’s “but I love the guy. I mean he’s a real sweetheart” comment about Axl in their Rolling Stones’ article from ‘88, reminds me that Axl often gets called a sweetheart in particular by the people who know him personally. So, his personality really does exist in extremes, or as Vicky Hamilton affectionately put it, “Axl’s personality is sort of a two-parter: there’s a very sweet little boy personality, and when he’s on edge, there’s sort of the demon dog from hell personality.”

Axl deciding his next move (and manages to be all three simultaneously)

Izzy and Axl being unhinged together (x)

Also, why’s Axl usually the only one portrayed as the chaotic, destructive type in GN’R, when we had Izzy chucking bottles at walls, Slash smashing a pub’s window because they wouldn’t let him in, and not to mention Duff’s attempt at arson with Axl during the Hell tour. Their debut album isn’t called Appetite for Destruction for nothing.

Thinking about how Izzy was the one to hand Axl his famous kilt, and it’s one of Axl’s outfits Slash has always liked. The kilt is special.

hot!
