Personally, and I actually don't know why, I find the thoughts of an album with Slash and Duff minus Izzy harder to swallow than an album minus Izzy, Slash and Duff (Chi Dem).  Whats peoples thoughts on this? Even with those 2 with Axl, as crazy as it sounds, its still new territory for GN'R.  Are you hopeful? Does Izzy need to write and be there for foundation and licks? Will a new album minus Izzy thats a huge success finally bury his legacy?
