Title: FAKE: Izzy Q&A with fans?
Post by: Princess Leia on August 12, 2013, 10:12:59 AM
 I found this @izzysarmy. They are a twitter account for Izzy?s fans. Apparently they have connections with him. I would really appreciate if someone can confirm if this interview is for real

Fake.

He/she is trying to make the answers on the questions appear like they come from Izzy, but they're not really.. you can pick out certain answers that definetely show it's not really him - aswell as some answers are rehashed from other interviews years ago (I notice because I was involved with them).

Izzy has no official site, until recently Beenafix.com and ChopAway.com were also not official but the sites that had direct contact with Izzy and bandmembers for years. It was basically official without being called official. Since 2002 he'd sent updates, pics or audio samples that were posted straight away, and we'd do Q&A's with him and the other bandmembers. But that stopped around early 2008 (he wanted to keep low cause of privacy issues at the time) and as far as I know he hasn't continued with another site(s).

Beenafix.com and ChopAway.com are gone, but if you want info you can search around or ask http://shuffleitall.proboards.com - since this site is the follow-up of those two. All the info that was on those sites will shine through there. The IzzysArmy site has lots of info that was also copied from Beenafix and ChopAway (he did credit me though, Ed from ChopAway). But those interviews posted aren't real (the answers atleast).

Dude, are you 100% sure it?s fake? I just found out that Paradise City and the official GN?R Twitter have posted this. I think that if they posted it?s because they made sure it?s a real interview with Izzy in the first place

Not so sure about that.. Still think it's fake, until proven to me it's real

Izzy's a pretty quiet guy as it is, so I can't see him answering questions like the ones I've read so far, it's not his character. I don't think he would of entertained an interview with questions like these.

Until there's some kind of confirmation that this is actually Izzy, it's better to be careful and assume the answers aren't his personal words.

Exactly.. as a reminder Izzy sent an e-mail in July 2012:

please let the fans know once again that all the IZZY STRADLIN TWITTER,MYSPACE,and FACEBOOK accounts are FAKES.Seems some of the fans are getting duped by the fakes.I have contacted the sites and informed them of the issue but they continue to allow the fakes to carry on...

I've sent him an e-mail yesterday morning with the link to Reverbnation, didn't receive a reply but I know he's read it - the Q&A link has been taken down.

Oh My! Thanks a lot and sorry for the trouble. I noticed that the people from izzysarmy deleted the whole thing. And also they sent an apology to Paradise City saying they should off checked the whole thing before making it public.  :-[

It probably would've kept going if it hadn't been dealt with now...
