Slash Gives Eddie Trunk The Final Word (We Hope)

AP04052106983.jpgThe MSG Network* has released an interview with Slash hosted by Matt Pinfield, who really needs to give up the cheaply toupee’d “Eddie Trunk” persona he’s created. Nobody’s fooled. Mr. “Trunk” (yeah, right) explains that he’s been so busy lately that he’s only been able to read 85% of Slash’s book, and even that’s just because he’s had some cross-country flights. Despite this riveting look into the life of a radio personality (what, doesn’t he read on the toilet?), Slash is somehow able to go on with explaining just what happened with Weiland, and he hints at why we should give up on the Axl dream.

The closest moment to bitchiness is Slash’s obvious disbelief that all will be well with Weiland once STP is back in action. Slash’s references to seeking a great unknown singer with a “regular blue collar-type guy…with a decent work ethic” rather than a “pop-star mentality” does seem like a set up for an eventual reality show.

    This Eddie Trunk information disturbs my tender sensibilities.

    Shit. I thought Eddie Trunk was Seth Rogan’s little brother.

    Slash was at the House Of Blues in L.A. last night scouting out some new singers…

    Is it that tough to get Izzy on the phone? It solves two problems:

    1. New vocalist.

    2. Bald douche becomes superfluous.

    Win-win!

    He’s looking for a lady that rocks!

    Since 1986 when MTV introduced the world to the blue-eyed lead singer of Poison, women around the world have worshiped Bret Michaels as a veritable Rock God. Never out of the spotlight, Bret’s career is still rocking with Poison and as a successful solo artist and the women are still lining up in hopes of a lying down with the sexy star. But the demands of life-on-the-road for the ultimate rocker have taken a toll…on his love life.
