SLASH Says He Supports WEILAND's Decision To Stay Away From Media

June 23, 2004

VELVET REVOLVER guitarist Slash has told MTV.com that he and his bandmates are supportive of singer Scott Weiland's decision to no longer grant interviews in light of issues he had with Maxim and Revolver, which reportedly called him "the biggest fuck-up of them all."

"In this band he's just out there proving himself as someone who is really serious about what it is that he does," Slash said. "And as soon as you get a really negative, opinionated thing from the journalists, it's like, 'You're just not getting it. I don't want to talk to you anymore.' And I totally understand it, because it's like we're out there and he's pulling it off and the last thing he wants to hear about is [what happened] six months ago or two years ago or three years ago. ... The rest of us all have pretty sordid pasts [as well — we] just never got caught."
