Slash yet again has proved his impeccable rock n’ roll credentials by telling Glee to ‘fuck off’ in no uncertain terms. Asked by a US mag on what he’d think of the hit US show Glee doing a Guns n’ Roses themed episode, Slash took no prisoners when giving his thoughts on the TV series.
He told the interviewer “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.” Slash returns to Australia for the Soundwave festival in February and March.
