“He does a lot of weird shit no one understands but I love the guy. I mean he’s a real sweetheart.”
Rolling Stone Magazine - November 17, 1988
Thinking about how Izzy was the one to hand Axl his famous kilt, and it’s one of Axl’s outfits Slash has always liked. The kilt is special.
Izzy and Axl being unhinged together (x)
Slash telling Poison’s CC DeVille he’s gonna shoot him if he ever sees him wearing a top hat on stage again is the funniest thing ever.
Reading Slash’s “but I love the guy. I mean he’s a real sweetheart” comment about Axl in their Rolling Stones’ article from ‘88, reminds me that Axl often gets called a sweetheart in particular by the people who know him personally. So, his personality really does exist in extremes, or as Vicky Hamilton affectionately put it, “Axl’s personality is sort of a two-parter: there’s a very sweet little boy personality, and when he’s on edge, there’s sort of the demon dog from hell personality.”
this clip is so real ... axl, i too would have to take a break from singing to cuddle up on izzy
idk if anyone of you has watched Yellowstone, but Beth and Rip are kinda Axl and Izzy coded to me
