[Music News] Slash says no to Guns N' Roses "Glee" show
by Fresh New Music,posted Oct 25 2011 5:15PM
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Slash said that he was approached by the producers of the television show Glee about doing a Guns N' Roses themed show. Here's what he had to say:
"Actually, we got asked about that once already but it got turned down. In the current climate of what’s going on in entertainment these days, I try to be more optimistic than negative because it’s really easy to get negative about it, but I draw the line at Glee. Glee is worse than Grease and Grease is bad enough…. When Grease came out I was like, 'Oh, c’mon, give me a break.' Actually, I look at Grease now and think: Between High School Musical and Glee, Grease was a brilliant work of art."
In the other parts of the interview, Slash talked about his new tour with Ozzy Osbourne, and how Velvet Revolver is currently looking for a new lead singer after the departure of Chris Cornell. You can read the article here.

In reality (& for the lay person) I'm not sure what Mr. Slash is actually saying. I found no solid reference to what actually the current climate in entertainment is. The only thing I knew for sure that in the past a request for a G 'n R themed show had been turned down. Maybe I need to read the entire acticle to get the actual gist.....

I'm pretty sure what "Mr. Slash" is saying, and I thought this was more than a little obvious, is that Glee sucks.

Chris Cornell was never the singer of Velvet Revolver, dearie. He currently fronts Soundgarden. You mean Scott Weiland.
