Title: Izzy to return????? Post by: Mr Rage on May 06, 2006, 06:59:44 PM Maybe just me but that was the best news from the interview : ok: i know it's only a small chance but it's better than nothing. and in the long run this could maybe open the door for a full reunion!!!
I think izzy as more power than any other member, if he says jump slash etc would ask how high!!!! most of this is hope so don't read into to much what i say!!! glad to make my 1st post later Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: Mandy. on May 06, 2006, 07:05:45 PM I don't believe he would stay in the band, but yeah, maybe he'll play a couple of songs? : ok:
Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: Grouse on May 06, 2006, 07:08:43 PM I think Izzy will do a few songs with guns just as he did with VR, but i Think it's 99% sure that he'll never be a fulltime member again? :-\

Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: Mr Rage on May 06, 2006, 07:16:44 PM he wouldn't return full time, i'm pretty sure of that, but i read in an interview that he doesn't mind doing 1-off shows with GnR, besides i bet axl pays him well!!!
1 thing that gets me though if izzy does come back for the one off show, will he be able to play with 2 other guitarsts and enjoy it, izzy is one of the best rhythem guitarists out there and another thing axl is having to employee 3 guitarists for a job that izzy n slash made look easy! Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: leesixxrose on May 06, 2006, 07:34:33 PM he might show up for the show but i dont think he will play..
Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: Will on May 06, 2006, 07:41:14 PM They will play Don't Cry together...woooooh, that would be good...Or maybe 14 Years. Turned into what...20 Years of silence...20 years of pain...
Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: Siliconmessiah on May 06, 2006, 07:46:02 PM Okey, I?ll try this,
Irony from some folks on this board that?s knowing "everything". Fuck off. There will be the same lineup like in 2002, no surprises. Fuck off. Axl has the same band. Izzy, Slash and Axl will never perform together again. Okey. You know now. Fuck off. **** end of irony. I think it?s great, all the happenings. It?s all about music, not the end of the world..... :beer: I?m hopefully gonna have a great time watching guns. I don?t care who?s in the band, as long as they?re delivering. Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: dave-gnfnr2k on May 06, 2006, 07:47:51 PM He will just be there to watch the shows i bet

Quote axl got 3 guitarists to create the sound you d hear on the studio versions, live. ?slash would go back and record parts over axls vocals, stuff they couldnt do live with only 2 guitarists.

Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: Smoking Guns on May 06, 2006, 08:55:41 PM I hope Izzy does not play with GNR. If Izzy plays, then I want Slash and Duff there too!
Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: Communist China on May 06, 2006, 08:59:36 PM I hope Izzy does not play with GNR.? If Izzy plays, then I want Slash and Duff there too! It's hard to imagine that Izzy would rejoin without Slash and Duff being there too. Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: Niko on May 06, 2006, 09:04:29 PM NO DUDE!!!
he is not going to return men!!! i was wishing for a reunion, but axl yesterday said pretty clear stuff!!!!! no reunion no old members maybe izzy joining them in stage but nothing more!!!!! Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: boston on May 06, 2006, 09:25:03 PM hed prolly play think about you

Do you think if they were going to have a reunion he would have said it? Of course not, just like how he didn't name the third guitar player. Axl saying no reuinon doesn't mean there isn't one. Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: Chief on May 06, 2006, 09:39:08 PM i'd be shocked if he actually plays with them.. just doesn't seem too likely to me!
Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: Super-Ecwfan1 on May 06, 2006, 09:45:13 PM Its cool if Izzy does play some numbers with them ! I'd love to see him and Axl get down.
Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: crimson_joel on May 07, 2006, 02:42:27 AM I could see Izzy showing up for the later shows, playing 2-3 shows at the end. If he did so with VR, why not with Axl? They'll both get good press out of it.

Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: Brody on May 07, 2006, 04:22:14 AM I dont know if I was izzy it would be tough to swallow my pride.. to go on stage with nu guns but who knows i hope he does!

Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: JB9988 on May 07, 2006, 08:52:21 AM hey may jam with axl at the ny shows and guns would play dont cry with izzy. but i dont think he is going to become part of the band again. Izzy is the only one out of the old guns i like or liked. I think it would be better if they just did a few songs at ny together and leave it at that. ten do a few more things at different shows.

Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: AxlsMainMan on May 07, 2006, 10:14:45 AM To me, next to the album hopefully being out in the fall, Izzy possibly checking out the NY shows, and maybe playing a song or two was the best possible news we could have imagined :D
Even if there is mild bad blood still lingering between Slash and Axl, or Axl and Duff....down the road, I see Izzy being the primary force is ironing out all the issues of the past : ok: Title: Re: Izzy to return?????

Post by: Mr Rage on May 07, 2006, 10:28:23 AM izzy is probable to laid back to care who he plays with, he marches to the tune of his own drum.
here's a theory on a reunion, if it did happen izzy wouldn't do it, 1-off shows no problem, he doesn't like the pain of touring which shows by how little he tours his own albums. Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: slashisvr on May 07, 2006, 10:35:05 AM He will not return fulltime, maybe a few shows
Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: WAR41 on May 07, 2006, 10:43:11 AM I thought that this was the best part of the interview. I think it would actually give some sort of closure to the old GNR. If Izzy came on and did a few songs I think that it would let people know that Axl has officially moved on from the old band. Maybe he did a long time ago but he certainly never said anything about it or showed anything.
Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: Ellroy on May 07, 2006, 11:21:29 AM Yeah, it would be great if Izzy joined them on stage for a song or two, but if he doesn't no big deal. It's just good to know that he and Axl are friends. Hell, maybe they'll write a song together sometime down the road. As much as I would love to see Izzy on stage with Axl again, I think it would be cool just to have him in the audience supporting his old friend.

As much as I would love to see Izzy on stage with Axl again, I think it would be cool just to have him in the audience supporting his old friend. I think we'll see maybe 14 Years and Don't Cry with Izzy. Don't Cry just may have Bach as a 2nd Vocalist, much as we saw with Hoon back in the day. Title: Re: Izzy to return?????

Izzy is the only one out of the old guns i like or liked. I think it would be better if they just did a few songs at ny together and leave it at that. ten do a few more things at different shows. Just curious, why is Izzy the only old member from Guns that you liked? Is it because he is the one that Axl actually mentions that might come back? If Axl said this about Duff, would you have said that about him? I just don't get why he is the only one you liked. Was it his playing you liked? Izzy playing don't cry would be nice. Slash re-did Izzy's parts on the album for Don't Cry cause they were too sloppy. So what you hear on the album is all Slash. Title: Re: Izzy to return?????

Apparently there are a lot of areas regarding the Illusion albums, all songs included, that we don't know. For such a musical masterpiece, it's hard to imagine that the members didn't work as a unit to create them. With that said, Izzy was a great rhythm guitarist, undeniably. He's obviously never going to go back to GNR fulltime, but it'd be nice and welcomed to hear him on a few of the classic GNR tracks, especially those that we didn't hear during the '02 shows.

Post by: Sillything on May 07, 2006, 03:58:55 PM If Izzy does two songs with the band it would be fun to hear his take on one of the new songs, Better maybe? : ok:
Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: 1987 on May 07, 2006, 04:14:50 PM i'm def getting my hopes up that izzy will perform for atleast a few songs during the new york shows.. if you listen to the interview.. when bas asks axl what is izzy up to.. axl kinda makes it sound like he'll def be at the new yourk shows then .. tries to back track.. and say well.. meybe hel'll show up.. who knows with izzy.....
anyone think there is any chance bas will join them on stage? i would love to see it for a song that were going to play anyway.. like paradice city.. we've all heard it a ton of times.. and it rules as a show closer.. Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: blaqktiger on May 07, 2006, 04:18:41 PM I think Izzy will be at NYC to jam on a classic or two.
Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: kaasupoltin on May 07, 2006, 04:19:53 PM Yeah, maybe on Patience or something like that. Hope so.

Cause as far as my ears go Izzy is playing on Don't Cry. Its true. In an interview with Slash, he actually dogs Izzy on what I love best about him. I love the loseness of Izzy's playing. Anyway, Slash wanted the guitars to sound more perfect, so he actually re-recored a lot of Izzy's parts on Illusion. This is fact. Some songs, he didn't even bother with Izzy on. For example, Civil War. That is all Slash on all guitars. I think Izzy was in and out a lot during the recording of UYI. Someone has an article with this I am sure. Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: IzzyDutch on May 07, 2006, 04:55:42 PM I know what Slash has said about Izzy's playing after he left, that it was much more tight and heavy with Gilby. And I know that there are some credit mistakes, Izzy doesn't play leadguitar on DTJ and doesn't play guitar on Coma and Locomotive (his parts weren't agressive enough), but I've never read anything about Don't Cry... and I've read lots of interviews ;) ;D
I'm pretty sure Izzy does play on Don't Cry, it sounds like him. Title: Re: Izzy to return????? Post by: 1987 on May 07, 2006, 05:12:31 PM get izzy as the third guitarist, bas can take over where shannon hoon left off.. see if teddy zig zag is around to play the triangle.. and axl could find two girls in the harlem chior named tracey and roberta to sing back up vocals.. i heard from axl's friends, brother's former room mate that this will be the line up for the may 12th show..
i actually hope the izzy and bas part really happens.. less than a week and we'll all know.. i live in nyc so i should be able to have an update for everyone shortly after the show.. there is pretty good chance though i get wasted and don't post till morn. fired up for next fri |
