Latest Slash Quotes from Interviews

• I mean, the thing about Guns N' Roses was that it wasn't trying to attach itself to the '80s, or anything that had to do with the '80s. It's just who we were at that time. We were doing what we wanted to do. That had really nothing to do with anything around us, except for the simple fact that we were rebelling against that stuff.

  Mean, Gun, Simple

• But if I was still trying to be in Guns N' Roses while I wasn't in the band... I wouldn't want to maintain an image like that.

  Slash

  Gun, Rose, Trying

  Interview with Trevor Kelley, www.avclub.com. September 19, 2007.

• For me, the original Guns N' Roses is the embodiment of a certain kind of chemistry that really couldn't be duplicated.

  Slash

  Gun, Rose, Embodiment

  Interview with Trevor Kelley, www.avclub.com. September 19, 2007.

• The era itself has nothing to do with anything. We weren't really attached to that at all. I just saw this thing where they had a Poison concert on VH1, and to me, that is being attached to an era.

  Slash

  Poison, Eras, Saws

  Interview with Trevor Kelley, www.avclub.com. September 19, 2007.

• I don't physically put Appetite For Destruction in and listen to it, but I hear it on the radio or at sporting events or wherever else it pops up, and it's great. I dig everything about it. When I hear Appetite, it sounds like exactly what it was. It sounds like a record made by an angry bunch of kids.

• It seems like a lot of what was going on when I quit is still going on.

  Interview with Trevor Kelley, www.avclub.com. September 19, 2007.

• What does surprise me, though, is the amount of attention this band [Guns'n'Roses] has garnered 11 years after the original lineup broke up. That's an interesting phenomenon. It was even interesting back in the day. I mean, [we were] this glorified garage band. It was a great band, but it was not the kind of band you expected to become what it has.

• Axl [Rose] is not the type of person to make something up. So I was sort of shocked that he went that direction. That caused me a lot of problems.

• I was never into hanging out on the Sunset Strip. When it came to Guns N' Roses and the scene that was going on then, that was something we pretty much hated. That was what we had to scratch and claw through, and as soon as we got established enough to leave, we never went back.

  Slash

  Sunset, Gun, Rose

  Interview with Trevor Kelley, music.avclub.com. September 19, 2007.

• The last time I talked to Axl was in 1996. That was the last time we exchanged any sort of words. There was a rumor that I talked to him a while back [and asked to rejoin the band]. I did go to his house one night, and I talked to his assistant about something that had to do with this lawsuit that we were involved in. But it got turned into something else. He went out and made a press release that said I actually spoke to him, which was all bullshit. I was really shocked.

• If you were a kid and you wanted to come out and make a statement now, you'd have to really dig deep to find something that no one has exposed already.

  Interview with Trevor Kelley, music.avclub.com. September 19, 2007.

• When that band started out, I was 18 years old. So that was my reality all the way up until I quit the band. And even then, you know, Guns N' Roses has a nasty way of sticking around.

  Slash

  Gun, Reality, Years

  Interview with Trevor Kelley, music.avclub.com. September 19, 2007.

• The only difference is that, in the last 10 years, the public has been so affected by reality TV and the Internet. They really dwell on entertainers' misgivings.

  Interview with Trevor Kelley, music.avclub.com. September 19, 2007.

• People want you to produce records. They don't care what it took to make it. When a band is out doing concerts, the fans don't want to know about equipment difficulties. They want their hour-and-a-half release, and that's it.

• When it comes to actually writing, I like to write in a full room with the amps blasting, and a big drum set.

  Interview with Trevor Kelley, music.avclub.com. September 19, 2007.

• I was the one that allegedly "quit and joined my old band." That wasn't true. But it was said so matter-of-factly on the Internet that the guys weren't really sure what I was up to.

  Interview with Trevor Kelley, music.avclub.com. September 19, 2007.

• Ahora estoy casado y tengo dos hijos, a los que quiero con locura. Así que estoy intentando juntar todo eso y mantener el mismo ritmo que hasta ahora. Pero, en realidad, disfruto con lo que hacemos. Un año y medio me parece pan comido.

  Slash

  Kids, Years, Two

  Interview with Trevor Kelley, music.avclub.com. September 19, 2007.

• When I was a kid, a lot of my parents' friends were in the music business. In the late '60s and early '70s - all the way through the '70s, actually - a lot of the bands that were around had kids at a very young age. So they were all working on that concept way early on. And I figured if they can do it, I could do it, too.

• I've been on the road for so long that it's a part of my being. Even after all these years, I love playing. I love recording. I love writing. I love rehearsing. I love touring. I love all that stuff.

  Interview with Trevor Kelley, music.avclub.com. September 19, 2007.

• I love playing music as much as if not more so than I did when I was 19; that compared to most of my peers is pretty surprising. I wake up every day and get really excited about doing stuff that I have been doing for the last 30 years. I just love it.

• [the best advice about women] was from Robert Evans. The line was in his book, but he told me, "When it comes to a woman's mind, I know nothing."

• Dirigir es como tocar la guitarra. Es una mentalidad y un talento únicos. Me gusta la idea de juntarlo todo para hacer una gran película.

• That's always stuck with me, with music. I've never really gotten jaded about it. I've always loved music for the sake of doing it, and the longer I do it, the more I like it. Hopefully, I'll be able to have that same point of view in this business, or at least with doing this.
