RussTCB Posted February 23, 2016 Author Share Posted February 23, 2016 26 minutes ago, Archtop said: Yeah Russ thanks for stealing my thread. ? I knew Izzy's to cool to be lumped in with general social media thread. One thing I do find a little odd and possibly reading to much into, why didn't he get Duff or some GNR person to release his twitter? If he's really got to the point were he feels he's had to put the record straight, I can't help feeling there must be a whole big mess behind the scenes. Hopefully this might force somebody's hand in to talking. Yeah.... My sincere apologies about that. My initial thought was to just put it in with all the social media but then I thought "Wait... Izzy saying he's out is a BIG thing" and realized it definitely needed it's own thread. Again, I apologize for the mistake! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smoking guns Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 And he let us know he is writing again. Haha. He wants us to BEG for him to be back in GNR and if he feels wanted enough he will go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I`ve given up avocado farming and am writing again" So, Izzy in 2016 buys a computer and decides to create a twitter account to tell everybody he is not involved... Sorry, I just don't believe it. it's a real account....and horribly depressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NicDwolfwood Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Seems legit. Not the best of news. but its also nice someone finally broke the silence..there is still plenty of time for things to change though, so we will all see what new developments happen from now until Vegas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hudsonsaul Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Least someone related to Guns is finally giving genuine information to fans. The others should take note. It took Izzy all of a few minutes, and he addressed stuff that folk have be grasping at straw for since the reunion announcement. Also, guess that can put to bed Nivens comments about where he said something along the lines of he knew the guys had been recording recently w/ Izzy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post willl Posted February 23, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted February 23, 2016 Fyi this is the track record of chopaway.com from memory for those saying this is fake: - We did the "Like a Dog" petition - "Like a Dog" release news exclusive & two samples - "Miami" release news exclusive (original and re-release) plus full band interview - "Fire, the Acoustic Album" news exclusive and pre release samples - Unreleased "FSO Ragga" mp3 for fans - Izzy artwork/paintings, eg. Junk, Rocker, etc - Unreleased Izzy photos, eg. Ju Ju's in studio, Izzy with Keef, Backstage at GNR 2006 - Email Q&A with Izzy in 2006 - Email Q&A with Izzy in 2007 - Found the Izzy impostor was WFA/IzzysArmy. Confirmed by WFA. - Izzy confirmed he would attend the Key Club/AFD anniversary through us which he did - Confirmed he wouldn't go on tour with Adler after the Key Club gig, which he didnt - Confirmed or shot down other little bits over the years which I forget. Think he confirmed some Guns shows? If this is fake it's because Izzys email account has been hacked. I don't play games or do the fake insider bullshit, just a fan like everyone else who has been lucky enough to get the occassional update from Izzy to pass along to fellow fans Since he now has more followers on Twitter than me I guess I can officially retire 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todo Poderoso Timão Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 I believe this is legit, though it seems a bit strange that the REAL Izzy gotta add a 999 on his own real account name.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post sonofnazareth Posted February 23, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted February 23, 2016 TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE news. Izzy is my favorite Gunner and he will be sorely missed. This reunion is a joke without Izzy. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niven didnt say that Izzy was recording with the Guns. he said that Izzy and Duff were writting music. He was probably referring to Izzy writing songs with Duff for His How to be a Man EP. Niv never said, izzy is in the studio with Slash and Duff banging out tunes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom-Ass Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Man, this fucking blows.. I know that it was never advertised that he would be there but deep down a lot of us were really hoping he would be.. like really hoping.. It would make this thing 100 times better. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacu44 Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) truly disappointing on face value. Now where I read into some things... Writing right now... Maybe last year and Slash is dubbing in some parts? No involvement now as the paper work isn't signed but on the table? Writing and recording with his band to release material to piggy back GnR news/tour in April? Can I hope for something from Izzy in 2016?!?!?!?!?!?!

Apollo Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Not having him touring is no big deal if it isn't the entire classic line up. The real killer is him saying he hasn't been writing or recording with the boys. That's a true bummer. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlashElvisTCB Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) Man the way you guys will take bait and run with it . I ain't believing shit until those concerts come up and we see the line up. Also, if this is really Izzy (probably IS him), why the heck would he update us on something he isn't even involved in? Food for thought, we're no closer or further behind in news than we were prior to "his" coming out on Twitter. Ask yourself these questions Why didn't he start a Twitter months/years ago? Why would he invite himself to be nagged by fans NOW by denying his involvement in recording or performing? Why would HE feel like he should be the conduit for which to give news about a band he's not playing with? Its smoke and mirrors, he obviously wants to build suspense by making an account somebody can follow...otherwise he'd have put a message out on a fan site or his official site if he even has one. If it IS 100% Izzy then he is Honey Dicking the shit out of us. Edited February 23, 2016 by SlashElvisTCB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
