Got a chance to deliver a Dialed In to Slash backstage before GNR show today ! Super nice guy. We chatted pinball, I explained Dialed In, played against each other (I won). Cool day thanks to Jersey Jack Guarneri.
Quoted from Budman:Was Dialed In requested by the band or did they just want any title?
Dialed In requested by Slash...
Quoted from PinMonk:He was the only one playing with sunglasses on. Of course you won!
Well, the funny thing was the game I beat him on the high score name comes up after he finished (he was player 2) and he took my spot and put his name in... I wasn't saying shit, just smiling... yup, you put your name in there slash...
His best comment of the night was after the concert :
'I'm playing my long guitar solo and all I was thinking about is I get to play pinball after the show'...
Beyond cool !
Quoted from rotordave:I bet that's the first time it took 4 staff members to deliver one pinball machine.
Sweet experience!!

I was waiting for someone to pick up on that... One for each leg, what the hell ? lol... and my wife makes 5 ! She wiped the sweat our brows...
I have more pics I'll get up... And I had some questions about Axl... Nowhere to be seen except for after the concert he peeked out of his dressing room in a robe for like 5 seconds waved to one of my guys and went back in.. A girl with him (daughter maybe?) said he was really into pinball about 10 years ago has about 9 machines but hasn't played much recently... Slash continues to buy and his latest was (surprise) Metallica and Wizard of Oz (which he couldn't stop talking about that it's his favorite machine and his wifes favorite movie - and he actually has 2 one LE and one 75th - one at home and one at the ex-wife's house for whatever reason - maybe kids ?).
His kids were also there and they were very nice. At the end of the night after midnight or so he said 'One more game then you guys can call it a night, I have to get the kids to bed'... said Slash never before on tour in the 80's huh ???
Final cute story - when I got there I forgot the invisiglass cleaner - the glass was smudged and I'm freaking out - so I ask his backstage manager for some cleaner and he looks at me and pulls out a spray bottle, pours a readily available bottle of vodka into it and says 'Here ya go, that's all we got, it'll work won't it'... Umm, yes sir... The first Dialed In with a vodka scent upgrade mod ! You saw it here first - hands off Tim at Mezel Mods !
