Slash, the former Guns N' Roses guitarist? I lost all respect for him years ago. At one time I really got hooked into believing all of the bullfluff he had to say about Axl Rose... I even read his autobiography in an attempt to understand how the band could seem perfectly fine from 1991 to 1994, and then go from "Everything's cool, we're working on the next album right now, no safe bets on when it should be out, Summer of 1996 is my best guess." in the Fall of 1995 to going on MTV (back when it was actually all about music) to say "Yep, I just quit Guns N' Roses." on October 31, 1996.

What really made me lose all respect for him is that some of the material used for the Velvet Revolver album 'Contraband' with the exception of "Set Me Free" was material written by Slash while in Guns N' Roses. "Sucker Train Blues" and "Slither" being among them. That and seeing a Slash on the side of Monster Energy Drink, pimping his solo album was the last straw.
