Axl VS Bed Wetter Slash.
Little Bobby’s seventh birthday has finally arrived. Happy children all around you bounce with joy, guzzling Orange Crush and basking in the glow of youth. Little Bobby has not only marked the passing of another year in his young life, but tonight is the night of his first sleepover. As you tuck the little ones into bed and wish them a happy slumber, sadly, this idyllic contentment is not meant to last. You are awoken by the determined nudging of Bobby, a disgusted sort of panic on his young face. You ask him what is wrong and he answers, to your utter horror, that Sam — the new kid who was only invited out of a show of good manners — has peed the bed.
Stories like this one are far too common. There are thousands of “Sams” around the country who routinely wet the bed, not just their own, but those of others at sleepover parties as well as themselves.
Unfortunately, if we are to believe the grizzled rocker Axl Rose, this is common among circles where control of bowel/kidneys are often slightly less controlled: 80s rock stars. Rose recently claimed that he was the beneficiary of his GNR band-mate Slash, “passing out and peeing himself”.
“It was great, because he would pass out and piss his pants, and then I would get to be with the girl,” says the 49-year old Rose — please see our review of the Guns ‘N’ Roses album Chinese Democracy — speaking of stains on the band’s reputation.
According to some fine rock journalism courtesy of NME, “this particular revelation is unlikely to bring a much talked about reunion of the original Guns N’ Roses line-up any closer to happening.”
Perhaps this is for the best as Axl has also been quoted as saying re: touring: “I can’t say that there’s any one song that I really look forward to doing”.
I have to say that for the past few of hours i have been hooked by the amazing articles on this blog. Keep up the good work.
