Slash has issued the following update (15 July) on his solo projects via his official Myspace page.
The spelling and punctuation is all Slash’s own:
“Hey all, what’s happening? Everything’s good on this end. It has been a pretty productive summer so far. My record should be done next month & the recording has gone smoothly & sounds fucking great.
“Steven Adler played on the 1st of the last 3 tracks yesterday, along with Flea on bass. The song kicks ass & the drums & bass sound so recognizable & sound so fucking good. Steven is staying clean, which is great, flea is just amazing, period.
“Steven, Flea & I all lived & met in the same neighborhood in West Hollywood back in the day. Yesterday, we had a great time reminiscing about when we all 1st started playing Rock & Roll & how school didn’t fit into the plan, we were like 15.
“Flea was the 1st one to join an “established” band called “Anthem,” I remember being envious. I had a band called “Tidus Sloan” but we didn’t have a singer. Sound familiar?
