We’ve seen four of the five original Guns N’ Roses members on stage this summer (albeit Steven Adler on a limited basis), and now the band has offered up their first television television interview since launching their “Not In This Lifetime” Tour on Brazil’s Globo TV.
Inevitably, the question was asked “Where’s Izzy”, as original Guns N’ Roses guitarist Izzy Stradlin has not participated. Axl Rose’s response? “I don’t really know what to say about Izzy. It’s like you could have a conversation and think it’s one way and the next day it’s another way. And I’m not trying to take any shots at Izzy. It’s just his thing is kind of his thing, whatever that is.”
Now, via Twitter, we have a response from Stradlin.
Bullshit
They didn’t want to split the loot equally . Simple as that . Moving right along……..— Izzy Stradlin (@IzzyStradlin999) September 8, 2016
