Are you sure they are japanese?
Could they be chinese and the finger thing means "Chinese Democracy is being released in 2 months"...?

[Schwarzgold]

Perhaps he's saying fuck you, english style?

I really do like the historical background of this gesture.

Them Japanese people are making the peace sign. Fuck off with two fingers in English isn't done on the side like that. Dizzy is doing a Hip Hop sign.

same way you do fuck you in american but with 2 fingers instead of one, but people never do it on the side like Dizzy is, so that's why I doubt it's ment to be that.

But people in England do it the american way as well, it's just personal choice I guess on which way you want to do it

In ye olde days back in England, when people fought battles with bows and arrows, they would chop the archers' fingers off out of malice so they could no longer fire their arrows. Therefore an archer would raise his two fingers to the enemy to show he still had his two fingers, as if to say 'fuck you'.

they missed out that in history class!

[Schwarzgold]

That's what I meant above. It's gettin' even ruder and therefore better, since the gesture was mostly used by the common english archers (or more exactly: welsh archers in english service) against the french noblemen.? Must have made 'em explode under their helmets.

[Ines_rocks!]

I haven't seen this one around, its pretty sweet!!!!!!

Dude, what's with the fingers? You in hip-hop now? I don't get that even rockstars start to do the "fingers".....ugh, the whole hip-hop thing makes me wanna vomit.....your over 40 Dizzy, get real....

so is Axl and he does the same thing... which I think it?s ridiculous too... well, but u know, tastes change from time to time, someday we will see GN?R featuring Snoop Dog doing some gigs (LOL, kidding )

Actually ...

Wikipedia article on the V fingers ...

However I dont think Dizzy is trying to make a deep statement with those fingers.

[Evolution]

Thats from the Dior party, I believe. It was captioned "Axl Rose and Guest" 

I know I should'nt laugh, but that cracked me up.

[girlincarwithgnr]

HEY! I give the peace sign all the time! Its cooler.

 And it goes way back BEFORE hip hop.

I feel like a geek when I just plainly wave hello

[nycangel]

my favorite is the "rock on" sign but thats just me...

[Elrothiel]

Same!

Lets just pretend that hip hop didn't inflict such thinking on us!

[w.axl.rose]

so that it. no more izzy pictures, just the one that dude posted and thats it 

[TheRaven]

Oh, and here's another one of Bumble carrying his equipment out. The quality isn't that good. It's hard to take a pic at night with bad lighting while following the subject of the photo with the camera as you wait for the flash to go off.
