Thats pretty cool.

If Axl is open to inviting Izzy on stage then how much longer till Slash shows up one day?

We can only dream!

Although VR starts to fill that void a little

Crappy songs...I would've preferred some others, like "You Could Be Mine".

Hell I'd just have been glad to have been there!

Never got to see G'N'R

That'd be a killer reunion!

Why the hell does GNR need 2 keyboard players? And how many teleprompters?

At a guess, I'd say Axl is going for a Rolling Stones big band thing!

Can Dizzy Reed not get a job anywhere else!

Does that prick just sit around waiting for Axl to call.

always thought Izzy was one of the coolest Gunners, if he got back in the band, he might be able to write some decent tunes for 'em!

Ha Ha!

On the HBO concert he was introduced as "Teddy Zig Zag the Big Bad GreeK"

Oh I'd forgotten about him, he looked like a pimp!

Teddy Zigzag is actually playing keyboard for Alice Cooper nowadays.
I think that is what you can call a promotion! :D

I met ZigZag and Matt Sorum at Pat O'Brien's in New Orleans before the G'n'R / Metallica show. Both pretty cool guys. Matt bought me and my crew a round of jaagers and posed for pictures before taking off.

Aren't they related in some way? Izzy just got tired of all the travel and hoopla.

I met Matt Sorum before a VR show, very nice guy.

Had a ten minute conversation about drumming, which I know nothing about!
