I was a teenager when they hit big and they were a rocket ship. Massive, exciting, musical, edgy… photogenic. It was the era in music where bands worked hard to get known, unlike the studio picked, industry plants.

It's so accurate what they said about each other.. how Axl described Slash's personality and guitar skills, how he described Izzy.. how Slash said only the combination of 5 of them could've made GnR.. it's like they knew it all yet threw it all away for egos and drugs. Not to much surprise, they thrived mostly on the GnR material throughout rest of their careers, although each of them tried their best to get their shit together and work seriously
