2020_Intensions Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Looking for information (can't find anything on Google) about a story where (from memory) Izzy was going to visit the band and upon arriving something was thrown out of a window so he just kept driving? Does anybody know what I'm talking about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willl Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Yeh I remember reading that, I think it was for recording Use Your Illusion? I can't remember where the story originates from though sorry 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyman Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 IIRC, this is regarding the rehearsals in Chicago in '89 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post -W.A.R- Posted July 30, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 30, 2019 This was in Slash's book. They were in Chicago to work UYI and Izzy drove in from Indiana and seen Axl throwing food (if i recall it was Italian) at hecklers below. Izzy immediately turned the car around and went back to Indiana. 2 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoulMonster Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Yes, likely from the band's stay in Chicago in the summer of 1989. I have written about it but ironically not got to include quotes from Slash's biography: http://www.a-4-d.com/t3967p90-the-history-of-guns-n-roses-in-their-own-words#14889 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2020_Intensions Posted July 30, 2019 Author Share Posted July 30, 2019 I knew it was involving Chicago '89 that's what I tried searching! Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len Cnut Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 To be fair to Axl that kinda shit wouldn't bother me, it might be annoying if it got in the way of actually working afterwards, not in the sense of him getting nicked but if it was a case of him being too angry to work or whatever. Shennanigans tends to go with being a rock star, lets face it we wouldn't be fans if they were choirboys and, on the scale of things, chucking food out a window is pretty low level. Izzys evacuation seemed more to do with his personal mental state and his being pretty shook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstar Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Just a few days after that incident, Axl and Izzy were together in New York jamming with the Cult (according to Niven, Izzy went to join Axl who was already there with West Arkeen). So it doesn't seem that the incident had weighed so much on Izzy and it was just a reaction of the moment, kind of like "I don't want to deal with this now." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
