Down Memory Lane: Guns n' Roses
Since Faisal bhai (present roomie) wanted to borrow the GNR mp3s, i had to dig them up and give it to him.. i had almost forgotten i had them. But the whole incident made me remember the time i was so crazy about this band! I think Slash is one of the reasons i was interested in guitars in the first place. he may not play much, but he had style and andI put on chain bracelets on my wrist becaus of him. I used to know the backgrounds of the bands, and each of the members... of how Axl Rose was a straight A student and Duff a car thief (really?)! I haven't listened to them in quite a while (= years and years!) until recently of course... now that hey have been dug up!
Yeah Guns 'n' Roses was my fav too. Girls liked slash for his hair, me for his spellbound guitar performance. I used to read a lot about them too. Specially what Slash said when asked 'what would he do with the loads of money the band was earning due to fame':

U 2?? Many got bitten by the GNR bug lately. Zahid bhai and me in this office and some other folks I know outside. Wonder if its because it was November or something else. I for one figured it was a divine sign to move on. There will be different interpretetions of course.
