supercool Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 hopefully these mini-reunions are steps towards the big one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandallFlagg Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Maybe Izzy will bring Down By The Ocean?Many believe this might *be* Down By The Ocean. I could see that being it, Axl would go nicely on most Izzy tracks. He probs got bored of waiting around for him to approve a recording session. I wonder how many future BBF tracks or any post 2004 BH tracks could've had Axl in mind... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subtle Signs Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 So the source of this Izzy info is a kid who (successfully) pretended to be him online last year? I guess Izzy Stradlin could show up but it'd be nice to have a better source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yesterdays-Civil-War Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I guess I missed why everyone is jumping the gun as to how this is all WFA's doing. If someone wants to fill me in, go for it.If this story has any credibility, I'd be disappointed if this was one of the planned "surprises" for this tour. Izzy isn't even a surprise anymore, he's to be expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandallFlagg Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I'd rather never see Izzy or Duff onstage with new GNR again, do a reunion if backwards progression with random teases is what you consider the band now or just play Going Down, it's not hard to play something these guys have contributed, how is it so difficult?My misguided sense of entitlement is entitled to progression forwards or get rid of the current jukebox, hell even Chinese Democracy is nostalgic now lol.

I wonder how many future BBF tracks or any post 2004 BH tracks could've had Axl in mind...Don't get me wrong - I absolutely love most of Izzy's solo work - but I often think about his songs "Man! Imagine how awesome this would be with Axl vocals and a Slash solo!". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandallFlagg Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Izzy's pretty stripped back, songs like 14 Years, Dust N' Bones are cool, would be pretty good alone but with Axl and Slash adding touches it really elevates them to something more. There's nothing wrong with his solo stuff its just different dynamics really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 We can all agree that Duff or Izzy playing a song or two with GnR in Vegas doesn't warrant a "surprise" or earth shattering bonus points for GnR, right?Cool? Yes.But they both have done it several times over the past few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmapelian Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 They probably need the allure of Izzy or Duff possibily showing to sell tickets to this farce of a show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuzeville Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I'll be willing to call it a surprise if both are there at the same time; and some members of currentGnR are sent backstage while they perform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because for years we've heard how disrespectful and disruptive it would be if Axl shared the stage with the old band - even for one song. How that would just kill the new guys because of all the reunion talk it would bring up. But now those same people are clamoring to see Duff and Izzy on stage with Axl at the same time?

Val22 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Since no one not even Izzy knows what he is doing at any given time, I won't believe it until I see Izzy onstage again with Axl.Maybe someone can trace where Izzy's bus is and see if it is heading to Vegas?

That sorta went out the window when Duff joined them in '10 and '11. Izzy and Duff are "cool" with Axl, so they're "cool" with Axl fans Really though, it's always been about Axl and Slash. Axl and anyone else is like "oh, uh, that's cool." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandallFlagg Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 (edited) Would Axl have been thinking 'the surprises on our second vegas residency will be Izzy, Duff, pole dancers, a concrete riser and another great guitarist leaving because I'll be playing the same setlist as now' back in 2001 lol.

Rdeyahlxp Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 (edited) Yes and let Ashba and Tommy sit out that one, give Ron lead to spice things up and give him some much needed variety. Who cares if it will focus attention on the old band. At this point Axl's "vision" of the new band isn't going anywhere anyway.
