    He picks some interesting tracks, I love getting to hear what he likes listening to. 

    Seems he like sifting through music and sharing so itd be perfect and we would get to hear him talking a little bit, win win :wub:

    Yes, forgot to mention that billy idol always shares stories for each song. I think that is a requirement. So we'd get a lot of insight into Izzy.

    this is something that i didn't know thanks !!!for some reason everybody believe that she left him!also i was wondering how he changed his mind from one day to another about drugs.

    He said in a podcast from 2006 that going to jail was his low point and made him decide to get clean. Personally, I don’t really think going to jail would be that bad, definitely not the same as prison (I’ve never been to eithe btw) lol but I think it speaks to the fact that he is a good guy. He was raised right, with good Midwest values :P

    One of my favourite discoveries was Izzy's paintings, from @downliner's archived chopaway website. Here's a reminder of "Junk" (sorry if you already discussed his art sometime between page 137 and 332), hope this link works:

    Very cool! Thanks for sharing. I didn't know he shared his art with fans. I wonder if he sells them 🤔

    Oh sorry, I get you now, I thought you had seen a different version of the photo with another person in it. :lol:

     

    Kevin has another photo like the one above and he mentions that it’s Izzy’s brother. I believe joe travelled with the juju hounds and recorded a lot of the shows, It’s in an interview somewhere. It would have been good to put some of that stuff together for the 25 anniversary even if only uploaded to you tube, it would be great to see.

    Oh, I see! There is some resemblance there (nose/jaw). Plus I see that it would be possible for izzy to gain some weight 😉 Based on his brother.

    I thought they got married around 91? he's already wearing a wedding ring around that time

    I'm not sure how Tumblr works lol I usually just browse- otherwise I'd ask her. I've noticed that Izzy seemed to wear a ring on his wedding ring finger pretty much all throughout GNR days. He either liked the look or liked appearing unavailable (?). So it's possible he wasn't married until '95.

  6. I think Izzy is getting a bad wrap again (Marc's interview). Marc seemed very bitter and disappointed that Izzy didn't participate in his book. He seemed a little too dramatic, and there's always 2 sides to a story. I think Izzy at first was glad to help him, then Marc started changing things (video, his home, etc.). Izzy might have thought he was being set up for a bait and switch. Plus, who knows what kind of history they have. :shrugs: 

    I think the tour stuff has been pretty well explained. Izzy hasn't performed in many years, maybe he has a bit of stage fright? That can develop over the years. I'm sure he's sober, but I was just looking at Taz's IG and that dude is a major drinker. I hope Izzy distances himself from negative influences like that, because sobriety is a life long commitment that has to be maintained. He might be cautious with people because of his past. But there are several interviews on YouTube where he is very open about his past and he sounded relaxed. THere's one of the JuJu hounds in Japan and the podcast of the guy from some online I-tunes type company. Probably depends on how he is approached and the vibe he gets from the interviewer.
