He could lose work by insulting his former clients as well. That's really frowned upon in the music business and all of Hollywood in general.

I understand that he should be able to take up for himself, but I'd be careful about doing it unless I needed to as it will be a huge turn off to future clients.

As you may recall, the whole case with Irv Azoff is based on an alleged verbal agreement he had with Axl over his commission. Verbal agreements are pretty enforcable in CA (where these suits are going on) as long as you can prove they existed, which is usually done by witnesses.

I'd feel a lot more love for her had she not stolen millions from him and gambled it all away while he was in a coma. This was after showing no interest at all in him until the band made it big.

People also seem to forget that he's been quite liberal with allowing Slash to rerecord various songs over the past few years. The deluxe version of Slash has 3 Guns songs on it, featuring Myles Kennedy and Fergie. I think he'd have been fine with the Guitar Hero thing, had they not gone behind his back the same way they did with Courtney Love and the whole Kurt character thing.

No matter who worked on these songs, they can't just use them when and where they want to. As you can see above, when someone uses a symbol or a song, the others get mad.

One other thing that bothers me too.

Why do people always have to diss November Rain and the video? Because it cost a lot? Because it's not old school enough?

That video was awesome and brought in a lot of new fans. In fact, most people that know very little about GNR today can at least name that video. Every great video costs money. I'm personally glad it exists.
