Has Axl Rose Gotten A Bad Rap?
. Longtime Guns N' Roses associate Del James says in a new interview that the public perception of Axl Rose is all wrong. Del was the guest on Monday night's episode of "At The Fights" with Randy "Commish" Gordon and "Gentleman" Gerry Cooney on SiriusXM Sports Zone and during the interview he discussed the misconception of Axl. There is an old joke about celebrities believing their own press clippings and during the interview Del implied that people are wrong to believe the negative press about Axl. He said, "I've been down with him [Axl Rose] since 1985. If the guy was as difficult as people say he is, no one could have stuck it out that long. There's no amount of money worth that big of a headache. And the reality, the truth of the matter is whenever my kids needed something and I couldn't, you know, afford it, whatever it was, a medical bill or whatever, he was the first one like 'yeah, I got it and don't worry about it." "He's the guy who you call if you make a mistake and need to be bailed out at 4:00 in the morning and he makes sure you're taken care of and he looks after his [friends, etc] better than anyone else I can think of." The show posted an excerpt of the interview online that you can listen to here where Del also talks about going to a boxing match with Axl. In another excerpt he makes a prediction about who he thinks will win the much buzzed about upcoming fight between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. Find out who he picked here.
