Slash Defends Charlie Sheen's 'Rock-'n'-Roll' Lifestyle

"I love Charlie," Slash told Triple M Music, when asked about the actor's drug use and lady friends. "All things considered, he's been having a little bit of a hard time recently with all the bad press and everything. But he's been managing to get away with what he's been doing on that show, and get a raise, over the last more than ten years. I think that's pretty cool."
The cigarette-dangling, top-hat sporting rocker is a longtime friend of Sheen's, and a picture of the two partying on a private plane appears in Slash's bestselling autobiography, 'Slash.' Of course, the guitarist once carried on in a similar fashion, but he now admits that the partying began to take its toll. "I never did find a balance," Slash explained. "I was probably one of those guys that manage to work and be under the influence on a regular basis. I showed up. I never fell over on stage. I never missed a gig. I finally just got to a point where I was sick and tired of all that."
And despite his support of the actor, Slash warned Sheen that "there is a cap, a point where you can't be productive."

Charlie Sheen is the coolest man on the face of the earth & anyone who thinks otherwise is a MAJOR GEEK without a doubt.
@dontdamnme,, this is about the NO LIFE Dave Hawkins not about me, since he's the only goody 2 shoes geek who posted here.

As for Slash,, it's more than obvious now that you have no clue about talent or people. You just run your mouth because you're a big time jealous hater.

Slash who? Another freak with talent who belongs in the cartoons. Sheen is a double dum a___s. Self destructive mode is on & full. What an simple a____s. Jerk with a capital J. Boob tube was named after him. Crash & burn chuckie- hopefully your time in the press is limited & will give us some peace soon. In the words of Rosanne Rosannadannah, "Some people should just stay home!" And for Charlie, some people should just shut up. He must be a lower deity with a higher (or high) messianic complex. Move over Charles Manson- instead of a swastika on your forehead, Charlie Sheen will have a drill (screwball) that just keeps going deeper & deeper....... give us a break media & leave this loser alone- you are just empowering this idiot. Who will be the next woman to go to his aid????
