SLASH'S WIFE TALKS ABOUT ROCK-STAR LOVE AFFAIR:Initially, 1987's Appetite for Destruction had little impact on Perla Hudson, the wife of former Guns N' Roses guitarist and current Velvet Revolver member Slash. "At the time I think I was playing with Barbies, listening to Latin music," Hudson jokes. A few years later, after some growing up, she discovered Guns N' Roses, but it wasn't the riffs of "Paradise City" or Axl Rose's wail that attracted Hudson to her future husband's band; it was a pictorial in this magazine that grabbed her attention. "I remember the issue. Axl was on the cover," she says. "There was a photo of Slash, looking down so you couldn't see his face. All you could see was his belly button." It was love at first partial sight. As the story goes, Hudson told her mother that this mass of hair with a fresh cigarette cemented in his mouth was the man for her. In 1992, with the Rolling Stone picture of Slash in tow, Hudson and some friends traveled to the Thomas & Mack Arena in Las Vegas for a GN'R show. One of her friends knew the promoter, and Hudson made her way backstage. Hudson and Slash partied that night and became instant friends, and their bond lasted over the years -- through the break-up of GN'R and Slash's first marriage -- and the rest is history. "Now, Appetite is my favorite album," Hudson says. "'Estranged' is my favorite song, though." While hanging behind the scenes at a Velvet Revolver concert is now a PG experience, Hudson still enjoys reminiscing about the some good ol' groupie debauchery from the GN'R era. Her favorite tale? GN'R were playing a small venue on the East Coast. There was no bathroom backstage, so Slash and Izzy Stradlin relieved themselves into Corona bottles throughout the night. Some groupies came backstage, eager to party, and without asking, chugged the bottles of piss, much to the shock of Izzy and Slash. Having finished drinking the six-pack of pee, the groupies were convinced they were drunk (which speaks volumes about the amount of alcohol in Slash and Izzy's urine). Hudson reflects for a second on the anecdote and says, "If someone told me back then that me and Slash would be married, with kids, and as happy as we are, I would never have believed them." well Corona taste like piss so i can see how they made the mistake but damn Slash/Izzy needed to drink more water if their pee was that yellow LOL also they didn't think nothing of all of the bottles being opened, not to mention not cold at all? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe an email to their management, though? Saying that you were happy to see that they used your idea for a t-shirt design?

On the t-shirts alone... they sure aren't cheap! And I am not sure if they made any hoodies with the design, but the store charges $85 for one hoodie!

killuridols Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I also thought the excuse was lame (which led me to think things among them are not as cool as they seem) because these guys are professional musicians, they should know better. But probably they didn't want to get slammed for covering Prince the wrong way. Axl doesn't look to me like a Prince fan, if he was going to cover Purple Rain and it's not perfect then he would be criticized until his death.

BorderlineCrazy Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Were they together these last few days? Maybe they got together a few hours prior to the show, did some soundcheck and that was it. Maybe Axl wasn't even part of the soundcheck. Don't really understand why is there some sort of an obligation to do a tribute to Prince anyway. They didn't do it for Lemmy or Bowie, even though they had the time to prepare something. If they wanna do it, that's fine, but only if it's something they really feel like doing. If not, they can honor him the same way as any other fan, by listening to his music. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post LA_0013 Posted April 25, 2016 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2016 (edited) Didn't realize performers are obliged to do a personal tribute in public every time one of their peers passes. Most of the band have publically shared their admiration and respect for Prince. Isn't that enough Edited April 25, 2016 by LA_0013 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
