Slash Doesn’t Know Where Axl Rose Is Coming From In Latest Lawsuit

May 24, 2010

Slash has fired off at former bandmate Axl Rose after the rocker accused music mogul Irving Azoff of attempting to “sabotage” the new-look Guns N’ Roses, so the singer would reunite the classic line-up.

The guitarist admits Rose’s $5 million legal battle with his former svengali has left him lost for words.

In his suit, Rose accuses Azoff and Front Line Management officials of “devising a secret plan to set up Rose and the band for failure so that Rose would have no choice but to reunite with the original Guns N’ Roses’ members.”

Rose’s legal attack comes a month after his former manager sued him, seeking $1.8 million in commissions.

Puzzled Slash says, “I don’t know where Axl is coming from. I know where Irving is coming from – he’s looking for commissions for a tour that he booked; a pretty reasonable kind of thing. Axl’s countersuing.”

The lawsuit appears to be taking its toll on Rose – according go Ultimate Guitar magazine, the singer has postponed a handful of European dates, set to begin in Norway at the end of the month.
