[xEnZoProDucTioNz]

[tailgunneraxl]

[FreeOnlineFlash]

Slash fucken inspires me, I wanna shred at least half as good as he can one day

[FuckMagicification]

the riff he plays at the start of the video is quite similar to by the sword

[metalhardrockerhead]

@FuckMagicification thts bc it is lmao ;)

[danielburgess3100]

@FuckMagicification because it is....

[1298da]

@Jedidew

Yes he did but they didn't like him much because he wasnt "glam" and picked C.C. Deville because he had a more glam metal style.

[1298da]

Lol slash auditiond for Poison.

[Jedidew]

@1298da ...no he didnt

[nthvt5672]

@Jedidew yea he did its in his book

[PBANDSNOW]

Ya, Sex Pistols!

[USMCsaveri97]

joe perry is better!

[PBANDSNOW]

@USMCsaveri97 So?

[metalni1]

[MrFredhuggins198]

@LaDottoressa46 yea, he also plays sitar and cello, i forgot to add that in there :)

[jjmassey2906]

hey that riff is by the sword!!!!!!!!!

[precious121383]

He's so fucking cool!!!

[gnrgods]

Poison,Ratt gay bands so true

[MrQuickSandJesus]

@gnrgods As big of a Gnr Fan as i am I have to admit there is nothing gay about poison i bet Bret michaels has had 10x the woman that the whole GNr band has had

[Jedidew]

@MrQuickSandJesus you sir..are a fucking retard. That is all.

[ausablesteelhead]

@gnrgods

Love the fact that he just says that, awesome!

[ausablesteelhead]

@gnrgods

Love the fact that he just says it, awesome!

[Zrinschchuck]

@gnrgods RATT and Poison aren't gay, each one had more chicks than gnr ever will

[Dirtypillowtalk1]

3:20 - 3:28 fuckin epic words.

[luisfemart123]

9 people are in gay bands

[MrFredhuggins198]

I like Izzy way more than Slash I mean Slash is cool and all but Izzy was the talent he wrote most of the music and his musical approach is phenomenal and he has amazing vocals on 14 years and Dust N' Bones his solo work is incredible too! he just didn't like being famous but slash did and that's why slash was so commercialized. Izzy is an amazing drummer, bass guitarist, song writer, rythym guitarist, lead guitarist, and singer................ and slash just plays lead guitar but i love em both

[diablo9333]

Well slash hates poison we know that now. 

[Ggomez422]

3:22 "There was like poison and ratt and all these other.. warrant and all these other.. gay bands" aha i luv slash not in a gay way aha

[MeanGreenMovies]

thats By The Sword at the intro!!!

[diablo9333]

@MeanGreenMovies Yeah probably one of slash's greatest songs after GNR.

[MeanGreenMovies]

@diablo9333 agreed

[galefray]

wat is the song called at the beginning of the vid

[joebob701]

@galefray by the sword, that was the rough version of the main riff

[33COOLMAN33]

Slash Interview 10/30/2010 Conan

 /watch?v=nd48HAjFRBk

[TheGreaterGood80]

Slash is one of the most laid back and likable rockstars out there. I've met him and he's the sort of guy you can have conversations about music with over a beer. He cares about his fans

[pipe2k27]

THIS VIDEO IS FROM 2008 AND BY THE SWORD IS 2010

[nine9live5]

@pipe2k27 i think he was working on that lick b4 the album released :)

[iSlash96]

[laerkekebaab]

Long live Slash.

[britwok]

[mulleh07]

the riff at the start,is that a song or just a riff

[UncleHarry113]

@mulleh07 It's the song By The Sword off his solo album

[heavymetalguy21]

@mulleh07 at the time, it was a riff. it has now become a song off of his new album

[gnrfreak1]

@mulleh07 its the beginig of a song on his new album

[TheAppieJj]

guns n roses just rocked so hard that the record deal guys can't ignore them to the point where guns HAS to be signed.

[kristofor12345]

Teenager in an adult body, I don't know if that's a bad thing. . .

[ablazetom]

hahahahahaha i love that he called poison gay which is true

[jedjed12]

[doinurmom517]

[taraldsvik]

Yeah, Gibson needs to learn how to spell Gun>s< N' Roses.. Correct!!

[adtrrocks1231]

[taraldsvik]

@adtrrocks1231 Fuck you, little fuck, they spelled Gun N' Roses, they forgot an S at Guns, you stupid fuck, learn how to spell little fag..

[Arcanethefat]

@taraldsvik haha i loled at your comment

[NamelessUnitShifter]

What song is he playing in the beginning? Or is it just an improvisation?

[darkfro]

@NamelessUnitShifter It's "by the sword"

[NamelessUnitShifter]

@darkfro thanks

[henningelana]

@NamelessUnitShifter

its a riff he made up long ago, but 'by the sword' from his new album emerged from this riff, so its very similar.

[tazzz174]

SLASH IS THE MAN!!!

[internalpeaceseeker]

i wonder if axl watches this stuff on youtube

[OJMedia]

0:00 The "By the sword" riff.. Cool :D

[TheKtcool]

lol person from guitar hero :S

[MrAndreSChr]

@TheKtcool tttttthhhhhh..... person who is a rock legend... thats the label!

[tjdgo123]

I know that Slash is a good guitar player, but to be honest, Slash is overrated.

[LLaurenZZ]

what he plays at the beginning... isnt it his new song " By The Sword" ???

[ghost6392]

@LLaurenZZ yep

[wingltd]

and all these other......gay bands XD

[SuperJamario23]

love slash love angus young

love angus a bit more but slash could fuck any other guitar player up

[yblittleman]

slash rules

[redbaron211]

the riff he plays at the beginning of this video is the riff from "by the sword" off his solo album "Slash" :DDD check it out. the album is killer :D

[lamo2cool]

"Poison, Ratt, Warrent and all these other gay bands" lmao Slashpwn? I think so

[kaiba34]

Hey ,Slash!Fuck you!You're great guitarist man ,but Ratt and Poison are great bands!

[saLmi1985]

slash: poison n rat & all these other gay bands HAHAHAHA @3:22

[stimpeee]

The riff at the beginning has transformed to "By The Sword", in the new album.

[MrMariokiller]

what riff is at the begining

[Augenatic]

it's by the sword

[FAMASjackPOD]

is that guy alive still? or did he die because of drugs and too much alcohol? xD i hope he's alive cuz then he is a living legend!

[Fastman4eva]

Yeah he's still alive !

[Rex066y]

hez alive

[MrAndreSChr]

@FAMASjackPOD WTF? he just released an album! xD

[Roniel81]

No need to argue, Slash is the coolest rock'n'roll guitarist out there, period! )))

Can't wait to hear his new album! I bet it's gonna kick some major ass!

[burnttoast4418]

@Roniel81 slash is cool but hes a little big headed and a bit of an idiot but hes a good guitar player not as good as van halen or angus young tho

[Boobyslayer1]

@burnttoast4418 give me a break

[Fruggawugga]

@burnttoast4418 agh shutup.

[CeLt74]

@burnttoast4418 A bit of an idiot? Dude this guy is a musical genius, he has consistently pushed out some of the greatest riffs written, including things you probably didn't even know about, like the Michael Jackson's Black or White and hes amazingly musically versitile. He's also an amazing guitarist with one of the most distinct styles in modern music, I don't think he's big headed at all, even without the fact that he is amazing. I'm not even gunna get into the Angus/Eddy thing.

[internalpeaceseeker]

@Roniel81

i just love slash but still there were people better than him as jimi page

i love slash make no mistake about it

[timeruin]

@internalpeaceseeker, the only Jimmy who holds a candle to slash is Hendrix u fucking chump!

[Rangerhalt1]

@Roniel81 Good thing it does.

[Olie23231]

@Roniel81 Laughing at your shite prediction :)

[thenewchance]

love the intro

[Roniel81]

yeah, it's what became later "By The Sword" riff, check it out! Cool!

[thenewchance]

Before GNR, when people saw a top hat, they thought of some old guy who freed slaves. After they arrived, we thought of this amazing guy. (not that I'm going against Abe Lincoln or anything =p)

[jimboguitarman]

hell yeah poison sucks

[pobbart13]

that intro riff was like ... life changing!

[northernsurvivor]

How does he do stuff like that? O.O

[samSGguitarist]

It's a new song of us coming out on his solo album. I believe it's called Sword, and Wolfmother's lead singer sings on it.

[peepeepantsface]

y is he always wearing sunglasses?

[Sgboy310]

he sleps with them on

[aidyanimal]

@peepeepantsface its part of his image

[KyleAB5000]

@peepeepantsface

its his signature look

:)

[northernsurvivor]

Because it's his image man... When everyone thinks about Slash, they think of a Top-Hat, Leather Pants, Gibson Les Paul and Sunglasses and Rock N' Roll of course :D

[verbw002]

@northernsurvivor You forgot the cigarette haha He quit now though!

[MrPirate93]

They became permanently enfused with his face after a hard night of drinking in 88'......

[VRevolver25]

rapp sucks anyway it doesent matter

[barramun]

@VRevolver25 Rap is the grand son of blues

[rockerinn]

SOMEONE HELP!

I have a problem with my guitar case it has a marker writing on it and i don't know how to get it off!!!!!!!

[michygonewild]

@rockerinn use graffiti remover or sumink

[georgeisupset]

@rockerinn It's a guitar case, not a Picasso painting. You should see mine!

As long as your guitar works and the case prevents it from getting damaged who cares?

[rockerinn]

@georgeisupset well i'm going to try and sell it soon and i need it to be in great shape :P

[The123free]

I think the guitars at tha back are fake

they probobly are just a piece of cardboard

[harry94park]

That's funny! In a Gibson video?

[RichLesPaull]

lol "all these other gay bands"

[MrArneandre]

Has anyone noticed that all the appetite-illusion members use the word "Basicly" A LOT! lol ;)

[nikoincredibad1]

its funny cuz slash actually auditioned for poison in the early days but he didnt fit their image...(thank god)

[nelsop2]

he said Ratt (the band) was gay not rap.. listen jesus

[matthewm107]

great id thnx gibsonguitarcorp for posting this

[Rangerhalt1]

Rap is gay. I'm glad he doesn't like it because I hate it. Slash is the best!

[Iwilllickherwetpussy]

uuu just dont understand life.....do ya??

[pinkpanther446]

@Iwilllickherwetpussy Yeah I understand life quite well. My post got your attention. slash claims he doesn't like rap and I know the diff between ratt and rap. If slash doesn't like rap than why did Cypress Hill play rap right in front of slash to a Guns classic ! slash has no integrity at all.

[pinkpanther446]

@Rangerhalt1 slash claims he hates rap!! slash allowed Cypress Hill sing rap to a GN'R classic with slash right there playing his guitar. Look up Cyress Hill -- slash is right there allowing disrespect to Paradise City !

[smashexpert76]

@pinkpanther446 why the hell would he purposely make people disrespect paradise city?he made the song,its his fave song from gnr and still plays it live with chester

[pinkpanther446]

Because it seems like if Axl does one different note in the songs when in the new line up it;s all wrong for Axl to do that and blah-blah-blah but everything is okay and cool for slash. See the difference.

[MrArneandre]

Slash doesn't hate rap... Slash's new single's b-side is a cover version of paradise city featuring the rap group Cypress Hill...

Its right here:

/watch?v=OaUtV2LSfVg

[pinkpanther446]

slash has said he doesn't like rap but Axl does and the one rap song Axl did slash wasn't happy about it.

[MrArneandre]

@pinkpanther446 If he doesnt like rap... then why the fuck has he made a rapsong? can you please prove he's said it?

[pinkpanther446]

I beleieve slash mentioned something about it the vids of The Story Of Guns N' Roses. It's in one of these vids of a 4to 5 parts to it and they show Axl very briefly doing that rap song when they were all together. I should of wrote the clip slide of that particular vid but I didn't think at that time that someone would question it. There was a big rebutlle about it on the comments because of slash allowing Cypress Hill doing rap. I think there may be comments on Cypress Hill-Paradise City.

[mindaflame7]

WTF is this shit about rap anyway? Rap is completely off subject in the context of Rock 'n Roll, or of any type of REAL musicianship for that matter. R-etards A-ttempting P-oetry is utter SHIT!

[MrArneandre]

Why the fuck you tell this to me? tell pinkpanther...

[MrPocketGuitar]

Dylan Moran FTW.

[michygonewild]

well they did do a rap that was originally meant to get them kicked off the tour with iron maiden so... it was in rocket queen in tokyo in 1992

[pinkpanther446]

slash wasn't happy about it but Guns did get many positive comments about that rap song and that was the only one they did.

[theboywhocantollie]

he said ratt... as in the band

[Doug1996104]

@Rangerhalt1

he didn't say he didn't like rap he said he didn't like ratt. but i hate rap to so w/e haha

[stretch90]

@Rangerhalt1

No man, Rap is great. It's just that all the shitty stuff is popular...

[koarson]

@Rangerhalt1

[koarson]

@Rangerhalt1 he doesn't say rap bands, are you def, slash works with cypress hill very often..

[Rangerhalt1]

@koarson Yes, but he doesn't like rap. He's said it many times. Axl is the one who likes rap.

[koarson]

@Rangerhalt1 you right man, but still real rap from the 90 is dope, still RnFnR!!! Slash the Best :-D

[elotriggerhands]

lol he said rap is gay. LOL@(c)rap! ROCK ON SLASH! ROCK4LYFE!

[pikeythedrumfreak]

oh man, that riff at the beginning... that could be an amazing song

[DestinationCrisisBA]

i know i thot that too!

[DoggyDogWorld187]

slash was born into music! his ma and pa bought him up with the love good music.

[cocaneo]

what was the song at the begining?

[SodaBurp]

Is it weird if I want to smell Slash's leather jacket?

[internalpeaceseeker]

yeah

[russiapwnage]

probly smells like smoke lol..... ( cigaret smoke)

[elotriggerhands]

(weed smoke)

[Jackadee321]

if you get a chance go for it xD

[alansonfire]

The Ramones are fucking Shite. Yeah they have a few good songs but maaaaan it's like 'punk-by-numbers', I destroyed their cd not long after putting it on....

[heavymetalpunkrock]

if the Ramones were not around, do you know how many bands would not have existed?

[fastforwardstudio]

i havnt heard one song so i guess 1000000000000000000000000

[poff5296]

Romones Can Suck Guns 'n' Roses dick,

so fuck off

[creepystranger007]

are you friggin stupid?

Ramones were a big influence on GnR.

they'd never woulda started playing, if not for the Ramones.

[naptownseth]

ratt was so awsome warren demartini man ratt was kickbut

[mussman717word]

I love it... "all these other... gay bands." What a sweet reality! Haha, I love Slash, man. Legend!

[ryannotsheckler]

Slash is allowed to call other bands gay.

[sonic9374]

hell ya he can he is a guitar god
