Izzymacbeth Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 (edited) For those who haven't seen this: Gilby, Matt as well as Duff and Izzy. Duff organised the event which brings me to question: We know Izzy played with all his successors at some point live or just writing (Gilby pre Guns, Guns 93, Snakepit, the above show), Paul I'm sure of seeing as they knew each other and Izzy plays Lead and Rhythm on Back Off Bitch and then Richard over the years with the touring GN'R. We also know Duff shared the stage with Tommy, has Slash ever performed maybe not together but even at the same show with Robin or DJ or even the Nu-2nd lead players Buckethead or Ron?

Most of us shared of stories a few pages back already! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Slash never played with any of them. He actually took a picture at some event with Alice Cooper, Nikki Sixx and DJ but he didn't know who DJ was and that he was in Axl's band. Slash only played with Josh Freese (who never got to play live with Axl but was part of Chinese Democracy) and obviously with Paul Huge, who was one of the reasons why he quit. 12 hours ago, SerenityScorp said: Female Izzy is so beautiful Feminizzy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said biscuits in an interview a few years back. And 'gang' is just Scooby Doo. Would mods mind a more serious Izzy thread discussing music, guitars, songs etc and not so much 'hotness'. Leaves a music fan feeling uncomfortable. Tbh I think NO! gang is very fitting name for this thread. Izzy has also said "NO" to: -continuing with GNR in 1991 -joining Velvet Revolver and - (sadly) NITLT tour ...so it's not just that one interview. There is guitar and music talk on this thread...

That's actually very true. The fact that Izzy has said no to these things despite them being good opportunities from a financial point of view speaks volumes about him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Izzyarg Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 22 hours ago, BorderlineCrazy said: Stradlin recalled. "Concentrating on playing music is what gets me off. I wanted to do a cover for the single sleeve with me in a pair of headphones and dark glasses, just listening to my music. I don't hear the bullshit."Stradlin has been stabbing handfuls of pushpins into a world map to mark the places the band will hit on its maiden tour. They'll start with a club tour of Europe and the U.K., plus a short foray to Japan before they begin touring the U.S. early in 1993. "On the road I always wanted to get out and see the people and places around town," enthused Stradlin. "I'm really looking forward to playing again." 1) That phrase sums up what I think happened with his departure of GNR and the Jujus ... in GNR became an employee and it wasn't fun anymore and with the Jujus he was the boss and had a lot of pressure. If he isn't free, having fun and free of drama he quits without a second thought. I also think Jimmy using drugs was a big factor, i'm sure he didn't want to be near any substance. 2) Iz if you like to travel .. why you don't do a tour? pleaseeee we can run a kickstarter proyect!

I would imagine it would be awfully hard on a 55 year old body. The newspaper ad's adorable, I bet it's from his Momma. The north of Spain where I live is a very well known place for surfers. There's a whole surfer culture going on here and our waves are some of the best. So it's pretty normal to see a lot of them and among them, there are quite a lot older men that kick younger asses when it comes to stand up on the board. You can say there are men that had been surfing pretty much all their lives. Izzy seems to be in good shape and healthy so it wouldn't surprise me if he's still surfing. Surfing at night must be one of the most beautiful experiences ever! I've never done surfing (I'd love to try it though) but I've done stand up paddle (in daylight) and it is absolutely amazing. I'd love to try it at night, they got these boards with led lights and it looks stunning. But of course, the water around here is supposedly too cold for most sharks so the ones we got here are usually not dangerous for people. I'd love to try it anyway. ::Jaws theme starts playing on my mind:: @Blackstar OMFG that birthday add is adorable!!! Probably from his mom, or some teenage crush or...

He must have left next year (or maybe he left for the summer and then came back?) because his name was among the high school graduates in 1980.

Zoot Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 @Blackstar You're awesome for finding all of these. Supposedly Izzy did a interview with that newspaper right after leaving GNR but I've never been able to find it. Maybe it's in the archives?

Darkenchantress Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 @Blackstar you're awesome! Thanks!!!! By the way, you were right! He says he left for LA in the summer of '80, I stand corrected! I loved this part: "I was going to go off and do whatever. I thought about coming back and planting some acreage". That was the prequel of the avocado incident. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
