yeah,........ wow!!!!!! :rolleyes:
yeah cool ad.
Axel would like to shoot dope in one of those cars.
ha, I'm going to see "guns n roses" in a couple weeks.. should be funny
Sweet a free guitar! Just have to spend a few grand on a car!
Shit, Axel is a big star - even though he got ass beat by Ralph Lauren!
Axl, not AxelQuote:

Nice looking guitar. Unfortunately the talent to play is not included.
G'n'R without Slash is like skiing without snow. Yeah, it's possible, but it doesn't really count.Quote:

Lets see, they have had the VW Trek w/ bike rack, VW K2 with ski rack, now the VW Slash with cigerette compartment, jim beam storage, amp stack and a top hat holder. Pure marketing genius!
On a side note, I live in Axls hometown. Woo Hoo.
He's an ass.
Maybe if it came with one of these:

IMHO, Slash is very good. Not amazing but he can easily hold his own in that style of playing.
I thought the commercial was neat....esp compared to most crap on TV.
I've been rockin' Appetite for Destruction since I read this thread earlier. Damn GnR was an amazing act, truly an amazing thing that these social fuck-ups came together and made some of the best true rock music of our generation.
GnR in whatever reincarnation that Axl tries will never be more than a cover band with a truly talented singer at the lead.
G'N'R.......one of the most overrated and overhyped bands...ever.
thats gotta be the dumbest thing i've read all year.Quote:

Just my opinion. Flame away...
