Nikki przyjaźnił się ze Slashem, zresztą do dzisiaj się lubią, ale Nikki nie przepadał zbytnio za Axl'em mimo, że ceni jego talent. Jak byli w trasie razem, to były początki Gunsów, a środek najgłębszych uzależnień w Motley, podobno przed którymś koncertem, Motley częstowało ich narkotykami, a oni nie bardzo chcieli skorzystać, aż w końcu Axl wziął kreskę i jeszcze się zakrztusił, a potem poszli. Ale imprezowali parę razy ze Slashem i Duffem. Tak Nikki opisał to w swoich pamiętnikach.
No i jeszcze jest jedna fotka, ale nie wiem na ile to wyraz niechęci, a na ile żartu:

"TOMMY LEE: We hung out with Slash every day on tour but Axl was a lot more reserved. There were times he would be really cool, but then at other times he just had that fucking singer thing that they all get–LSD: Lead Singer Disease."
"Now that, my friend, was insane. We loaded up about 25 pyro blasts and when Guns kicked into Welcome to the Jungle they all went off at once. The band looked like they were gonna shit their pants and then got the biggest smiles I’ve ever seen. Axl was wearing a Mötley T-shirt…THAT
was unexpected. Gotta get ready…last show…"
A wzmianki o Izzy'm:
"We took a chopper to the gig here. Izzy just came into
the dressing room (miracle) and introduced us to his
girlfriend. Oh my God–can I say Bruce Dickinson all over
again? It’s this chick Suzette that I fucked in a reh room in
Hollywood when she was 17. Then I used to buy drugs from
her later. She would come over and I’d tie her up and treat
her like a farm animal. She’s cute as long as she doesn’t
talk. I used to gag her so I wouldn’t have to hear her coke
babble. Life is weird and getting weirder all the time.
When she came in with Izzy I acted like I never met her.
Then when Izzy left, Tommy said, Sixx, dude, that’s the
chick from the Whisky A Go-Go bathroom floor, remember
that? Oh fuck, I forgot about that, too.
a później:
"P.S. Suzette came to my room before the party and
wanted to fuck me. Tommy was in here with me doing a
bump and I told her to leave. She got all crazy and I threw
her out the door and she slammed into the wall and started
crying."
i jeszcze później:
"Had Slash, Steven and Duff
fly on our jet last night. Izzy wouldn’t come ’cause I threw his
girlfriend against a wall. Hey, Izzy, I fucked her first so fuck
off.
Axl never comes. He’s a twat"
