StrangerInThisTown Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 (edited) Anyone remember Axls comment about Izzy guesting with GNR in 06? He said Izzy wanted an outragerous amount of money just for those few songs. Maybe he is a bit too money focused and that's why he's not in. What would support this theory is also that Izzy said for those shows in 1993 he also only did the dates for the salary.

Slosh13 Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 (edited) I'm not a fan of guest spots for this. You're either in or out. I want Adler or Sorum on all the songs. I want Izzy or Clarke on all the songs. Edited March 29, 2016 by Slosh13 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Axl, Slash, and Duff feel like they've done most of the work here and unless Izzy wants to contribute to that then there's no way he's getting paid the same as them. Pure speculation of course, but it's possible based on what we know. Izzy seems to like his money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonofnazareth Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 If Steven is going to be present, I would prefer if he also played on the encores. It would be quite disheartening if he came on and left in the middle of the set, never to return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Izzy and Steven do make an appearance it would be nice of Fortus and Frank would be kind enough to watch from the side of the stage.. No need to have 8 people running around on stage.. Would kind of dilute a very special moment for a lot of fans. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizzy Frank and Fortus guest for a couple songs for a cordial departure from Gn'R.. They get a polite applause, but no one knows who they are. i actually wouldn't know them if they walked past me in the street (Frank and Fortus) i would be happy with Gilbey and Matt if no Izzy and Adler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebones Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Have you seen the latest posts of GNR on twitter? We have Duff's basses, Slash equipment and Dizzy's piano. If we don't have pictures of fortus and Frank gear I would totally especulate about Izzy and Adler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunsfanoldie Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 I really really REALLY want Izzy to also have a possible guest spot. I'm gonna get upset if people are starting to think thats definitely out of the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rd Wheel Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 If Adler is in -- even for a few songs -- I think Izzy is in for at least guest spots. Axl isn't stupid -- he's actually handled this well, slowly leaking info a little at a time and keeping speculation and mystique open -- and he won't bring 4/5 of the original lineup with Izzy the missing link. He knows people would groan at that. If you're to leave someone out, it's Steven (for the reliability factor). Axl isn't dumb. He'll get Izzy there -- if Izzy is the only missing piece. I do believe Adler is in, which means I do believe Izzy is in. That means I believe we will have the original five on stage together -- for at least one song -- for the first time in 25 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the hyperdrive button. maybe they will try with the Big 3 but if it doesn't fly they will give Izzy more money. Just to say the original line up first time since 91? would be first time since Farm Aid 1990 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

double talkin jive mfkr Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 scarcity is GNR's true value in every essence of what it means to be a one of a kind of band i do truly hope its the originals even axl can do all of dizzy's parts there is absolutely no reason for anyone else adler is 100x the drummer of anyone else use your iluusion concerts are not that cool to watch with matt there it's just plain dumb and frank is by far the worst gnr drummer they've had.... brain was better than matt and quite similar to steven if anything i know what im talking about axl, keep it real, keep it the five and hit the keyboards and ditch dizzy the guy devalued your band as soon as he joined Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
