Guns 'N Poses: Axl Rose at 18Thursday, October 21, 2010 10:42 AM
"It’s the shots of him at eighteen that move me, though. He isn’t pretty yet, he hasn’t begun to think of himself as a rock star. He’s a boy-man, with a trace of fear in his pugnacious stare. I can’t remember what he’d done, that time. Stolen another kid’s bike, I think. Or destroyed another kid’s bike. When I first saw his hair, I understood something Dana had told me hours before, at a bar: that when they were children, Axl was Raggedy Ann in the Christmas parade. Looking longer, a person could understand something else, too, about the Midwestern darkness in his voice." – excerpt from John Jeremiah Sullivan's "Letter From Our Southern Editor" column in the Paris Review.

We believe you should talk to Strangers. But not get in their cars. Necessarily.
