Axel rose looks like that kid on my block who always asks to bum a smoke, then when i tell him i dont smoke, he promptly tells me to go fuck myself. Seems like a nice kid.

You should get some cigarettes just so you can do to that kid like Lucy Van Pelt does to Charlie Brown. That ought to teach him not to bother other people.

I got a pack of Turkish cigarettes once. Gave those out to the guys bumming cigarettes. I never got bothered again.

What’s wrong with Turkish cigarettes?

skittlebog t1_j0nkfaw wrote

Nothing wrong with them, it's just that some of them are a lot stronger in flavor than the usual American brands.

And he 100% bummed that cig off of Lemmy.

0k_KidPuter t1_j0nk9yx wrote

Lemmy 100% stole that pack from a groupies purse. All is fair in love and war.

I'd be so happy if I were to ever find out that were true.

Yeah, Trujillo wears Metallica stuff when he plays live a lot too.

awkwardcoitus t1_j0mvrrh wrote

Yeah but I feel like that's different. He started playing with Metallica in 2003 so he was likely a fan before.

Not to diminish their success and accomplishments, but Duff and Axl look a bit like imposters next to the authentic OG.

Bet Lemmy’s not wearing sneakers.

Hattix t1_j0mqi0q wrote

Lemmy's ethic was absolutely and completely something else.

He'd say "I'm a public figure. If I'm in public, I'm at work." and never refuse an autograph or a photo.

Great drinking game: watch the Paradise City video and you have to drink every time someone nods at the camera

webdevxoomer t1_j0llkl4 wrote

To me, that video always exemplified rock 'n roll - giant stadium, random articles of clothing on the stage, clips from 'life on the road', bouncers tackling people, etc

Oldrocket t1_j0lqabx wrote

Definitely one of the quintessential heavy metal "tour montage" videos. Pretty much every hair band back then did one. Also had to have a ballad at some point. Def Leppard pour some sugar on me and motley Crue Wild Side are a couple of other awesome "tour montage" gems.

I was at that gig, my first festival experience. G'N'R were at the bottom of the bill, Appetite For Destruction had just been released. Crowd went nuts for them, and a couple of kids died in the crush down the front. Pissed it down all day, absolute mud bath.

That doesn’t look straight. But he is drinking like a true gentleman with that pinky.

norielukas t1_j0nyskh wrote

More likely to be jack & coke, considering that drink is also known as a ”lemmy”.

AliBarberTheSecond t1_j0n1aed wrote

It'll be Jack and coke considering that was what he drank. When his Dr complained that he needed to drink more water he added ice to it

Axl’s not really short (he’s like 5’10) it’s just the way he’s standing.

Maybe OP is bragging about the size of his pocket?

Ever think of that?

Huh?

HUH?

I've seen him in real life, and he's like 5'7" in actuality.

Axl is 5’9”. It’s just that Duff is 6’3”

sire_brownstone t1_j0nsdwx wrote

That's Axl's PR inflated height lol. Slash is listed as 5'10", and Axl is visibly a few inches shorter in some pics they have together.

Maybe. I always thought slash looked way taller…but I never saw them together without the top hat…

I heard that Lemmy got his name from Jimi Hendrix when they were at a casino and Lemmy would keep going up to Jimi goin "Lemme get $5".

AliBarberTheSecond t1_j0n15up wrote

Nothing to do with Jimi, it was from when he was a kid and would ask for money, "lemme a quid". Google is literally at your fingertips

11

Ronnie_Mustang t1_j0ojsp1 wrote

Yeah I mean I just heard this from a friend and posted it. I should hope no one takes me as a legitimate source. Glad to hear the real story. So was he involved with Jimi at all? I heard he was a roadie or something for him.

Living next to 1988 Duff might be a different story, though.

That’s true. He’s Dad Duff now. But still cool and looks great.

WrathOfKan t1_j0ntcxu wrote

Duff took accounting in business school and would have graduated — he just had one more quarter to complete. In 2011, Duff founded a wealth management firm for musicians called Meridian Rock.

Axl isn't really big anymore. He's actually kind of thin for his age now. If you look up pics of him from 2022, he's as slim as Slash is.

I always thought Lemmy had to be one of the ugliest lead singers ever. He actually didn't look too bad in this photo though.

I was there that year!

I still have the t-shirt (though it seems to have, erm, shrunk since then).

That was the tragic year that 2 people were killed in a crowd crush.
