    What are you talkin about?? Which photo?? I miss something...

    On Taz's IG account he had photos of Izzy's girlfriend/ex with his (Taz's) girlfriend/wife. Those have since been deleted from his IG. So, it makes sense that they were deleted from his IG since they had his (taz's) ex in the photos. I guess people do that when they break up, go through their social media and delete photos of the now ex.

    I'm starting to think he does or atleast read here. Remember a few weeks ago a picture of his girlfriend from instagram of taz got posted here, shortly after the pics (coz there were others) of his girlfriend is no longer there, could be a coincidence too :)

    Interesting. The pics are also gone from taz's IG. There was one of her with another woman on his IG and it too is gone. Could be someone else doing it, maybe taz? lol I still think Izzy is single,she might be an ex :shrugs:

    "I don't mind" got pretty clear for me now. :lol: I still had to google the lemon expression since I'm not used to english slang and... wow! :shock: But I still don't get that vibe from "The Groper" (although the meaning of the word groper is clear on the dictionary). :facepalm:

    Which one? :ph34r:

    The Groper:

    "she wanna plug into you" she wants to sleep with him. 

    "If you don't show it, how can I grope it?"  He needs her to show him her stuff so he can reach out and feel her. :P

    I do it sometimes. I believe he always writes about something real. He doesn't make things up just to create a song, I think. Problem is to know whem he's talking about a situation that happened to himself or to someone else he knows. Then I get confused and give up on trying to decode the lyrics. :crazy:

    I felt the same way as I was reading them! Some were just odd, like , is this really a song?! But then there are ones like The Groper which are obvious. He's an enigma for sure...or is he actually so simple that it creates an illusion of being enigmatic?! 😂 Can never tell with that guy.

    I'm not sure if this hasn't been posted (I've missed some pages in the thread). It's from a Velvet Revolver article/interview (Guitar World, 2003):

    While Kushner's predilection for Fernades guitars, Bogner heads and a whole arsenal of Line 6 and Boss pedals might seem at odds with Slash's Les Paul-into-Marshall approach, the two gui­tarists quickly meshed. Bur when Izzy Stradlin suddenly started showing up at rehearsals, Kushner began to wonder if his days in the band were numbered. "Izzy just came out of nowhere, as Izzy does," Slash says, laughing. "Poor Dave. Izzy's sitting there, this ominous presence, and Dave's thinkin', That's the original guitarist from Guns N' Roses. Am I still gonna have a job? But we're real loyal people. It wasn't like, 'Hey, Dave, we're gonna work on some songs with Izzy; call us back in a couple of weeks!' When Izzy was there, we just played with three guitarists."

    Stradlin hung out and jammed with his old mates for several weeks, but Slash and McKagan both say there was never any real possibility of their old guitarist joining their new band. "The Izzy thing probably got mis­construed a little bit,"says McKagan. "I think he wanted to come in, like, 'Let's go out on tour right away! I've got eight songs, let's go! We'll do some covers; Duff and I will sing!' [laughs] But Matt and Slash and I were more like, 'If we're gonna do this, we're gonna have to do it so it's amazing.' I've heard a lot of fans saying, 'Why don't you have Izzy in the band now?' Well, this isn't cut out for him; he's more of a guy who will be here one day and be gone the next, and you won't know where he's gone to. But he added a new energy that we probably needed at that point.''

    "You have to understand our relationship with Izzy," Slash explains. "Izzy's always been the  guy who's sort of there and sort of not there. Duff and I have seen Izzy periodically; I've played on his records a couple of times, and Duff has done the same thing. And then he called up right when we were in the midst of writing, and he actually came over and brought a couple of songs with him. And then we just started hanging out and jamming, and we wrote, like, 10 or so songs. It was just a lot of fun, but he didn't want to deal with the fuckin' long haul at all.As soon as we started to physi­cally audition singers, we didn't see him again." Slash  laughs.  "He's so fucking shattered from his experience [with Axi] that he refuses to ever
    do  anything involving a singer again!"

    ...

    "The first CD that Slash gave me had a lot f music that Izzy had written with them, and it was a lot more classic-based," Weiland remembers. "I wasn't as excited about that stuff, you know? But when I got the next batch of songs, it was like, 'Okay, there's a handful of songs in here that I definitely feel I can  wrap my head around.

    Poor Izzy, he gets such a bad wrap. Reading that felt degrading towards him. Makes me wonder why he even talks to those sellouts, I mean guys. They act like they never had any faults, none of their antics and crap from early GNR seems to be brought up. I'm sure they have their personality flaws too. I hope one day Izzy writes a book and tells it like it really is! Even all the stuff that Duff claims he will never even tell his wife. 

    I know he won't ever do that, but it's nice to think- considering how rude they are 😉
