Izzy played a huge part in creating the songs. Nobody denies that and the royalties he's paid for them reflect that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, they denied that he should get equal money to what they're getting for the tour. He still gets his royalties for the song's his written and already landed a large sum of money for his contributions to GNR. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rumor was something like $40,000 per show. This is chump change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is chump change. Well, it's all relative. At 167 shows and counting, he could have earned $6.68 million so far if that rumor was true. For me, that's set for life money if I invested it somewhat intelligently (even after taxes). Certainly not "chump change." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoulMonster Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Just now, double talkin jive mfkr said: just an assumption like all the other trajectories being launched here Why do you assume that Axl has a "cold nature" towards Izzy? They played together not that long ago and Axl has been amiable and friendly towards Izzy in interviews these last years (and we know Axl has no qualms about attacking Izzy when angered). So are you basing this assumption on nothing but the fact that GN'R and Axl couldn't reach an agreement re: Izzy's involvement in the NITL tour? If so, that seems to be wildly jumping to conclusions more based on existing prejudices than evidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
