Didn’t his recurrent guest spot on Gilmore Girls provide enough green to buy a well-bred puppy?

So, let’s get this straight: the key to reuniting Guns N’ Roses is to raise money for Sebastian Bach so that he can buy a puppy for Sly Stone so that Slash and Axl will meet in a studio?

See, some people would say this is weird, but they’re not real Guns N’ Roses fans.

Just imagine, pretty soon you could be in a stadium watching Axl and Slash ripping on Welcome to the jungle, and you could be thinking to yourself, “this all started with that puppy for Sly Stone that I partly paid for…”.

Hmm…me thinks this is all a tad odd, i’m taking this story w/ one huge grain of salt…
he doesnt have $8500? and i wonder if he told axl and slash that they’d be working w/ each other….

I think it would have ended up kind of like a heavy metal smack down at the OK Caralle (from texas my spelling sucks!)

sly can’t just perform with the guys. He demands an $8500 puppy. WTF? He hasn’t had a hit in three decades and he’s acting like he’s still a rock star with “rock star demands”? Cmon, if you want axl and slash on a track then ask them yourself. Don’t a) have absurd nonmusical related demands before recording and b) do it yourself, you don’t sebastian bach as your middle man. No one cares about sly anymore, chinese democracy will probably be released after axl’s dead if it’s ever released, and slash is too busy looking for a new VR singer on the internet to rock out like he used to. It’s all politics and has beens. WHat a shame.

When A.N.I.M.A.L. (metal band from Argentina) asked Lemmy (Motorhead) to sing in their cover of AC-DC’s Highway to Hell (for their Usa Toda Tu Fuerza LP) he only asked for a bottle of Whiskey…

F&#K I’ll give a puppy for FREE, what kind of a dog goes for $8500. Sly Stone is washed up, didn’t you see his last TV performance… Yeah I’ve said enough… He used to be somebody but that was 30 years ago. Bach would have better luck rejoing Skid Row

spend your money on your family.

“almost reunited Guns N’ Roses”?

Oh, I see. Guns N’ Roses are Axl and Slash. Not those other three or four dudes. Got it.

If you ask me, Seb should not have gone public about this…now it will never happen. He should have kept it quiet, found a way to make 8,500 bucks and then got Slash and Axl into the same room. Because that’s what those two idiots need. Well, they’re not actually idiots, they are geniuses. But they act like idiots over the whole idea of just talking to each other. Frig, get over it and just get into the same room.

He can’t afford a dog-seriously…?

Izzy wrote all the songs and he dosen’t want to be seen any more so don’t sit around waiting. Go buy IZZY STATLIN AND THE JU JU HOUNDS and enjoy. The Guns are over for awhile(next to never). It was fun while it lasted but I’m not waiting around for another APPITITE from these guys the next great thing will come from someone else!!!
PS- that ass has got the money for a dog…….what a shit bag for crying poor mouth!!!

While I’d never spend $8500 on a dog I could, techically, pull it off without missing a meal if I wanted to.

Apparently Bach couldn’t. That fact made my fucking day.

I don’t blame Sly for making an outrageous demand: With his resume, what would be the incentive to work with losers like Rose and Bach?!

If I’m Sly Stone, a pioneer of funk, and a giant in pop music history, it takes at LEAST an $8,500 dog to get me to even THINK about working with nobodies like Rose, Slash and Bach.

this is waste of memory space on the net

Axl Rose a nobody? And yet you obviously read this article, which is about him, and took the time to comment. Hm.

Most of you are fucking idiots, its fun.

No, really… you’re wasting precious bandwidth and storage space not only on the internet but in my head. Someone sent me an email that said: “Stupid Washed-up Pop Star Tricks” and I fell for it. Now I’ll have to forget some other stuff to make room for this rubbish.

Crikey.

Sly is also washed up,dumbass.

I Rikki Gordon, am the person who introduced Sebastian Bach and Sly Stone in NYC handed BAZ the microphone as i like the people to sing along, after the show was over
Sebastian Bach sent a napkin with his contact information to me thanking me for letting him sing a couple of choruses.

He said to me that it made his year to get that chance to sing.

I quickly became good friends with Sebastian Bach and hooked them up!

Sly called me up 3 days ago and asked me to re connect him and Sebastian because Sly has some songs he wants Sebastian to sing.

The saga continues, and the best is yet to come, Sly and Sebastian will be recording together, and for those who have doubts get over it, music is magic and i look forward to working with them in the studio.

I believe the recordings will reign at the top of the charts once it is finished.

Rikki Gordon – singer “Sly and The Family Stone” Happy Trails to all.

Jeff is right, axl and slash alone are not guns n’ roses. Sebastian bach is a tool for saying that, show duff, steven and izzy some respect.
PS was the dog made of solid gold or what?

was this article actually in rollinstone magazine? if so, which issue?

nic nac paty wack
give a dog a bone
every Dog has His Day
every Sly has His Stone

Sly Stone is an iconic genius who IS rock history. Him asking for a puppy as payment for a session is like a photo op with the President and he asks you to brown bag it…You DO IT just for the opportunity…their loss..Sly Stone is and always will be Sly Stone…take me higher!
