Izzy Stradlin in shire

"Back then he was Izzy Bell. He looked a lot like Nikki Sixx"

The ads on a weekly basis and soon found their next bass player, Izzy Stradlin, who went on to gain fame as rhythm guitarist for Guns N’ Roses. “Back then he was Izzy Bell,” says Santalesa of Stradlin, “He looked a lot like Nikki Sixx and had a lot of energy. He was very enthusiastic.” (This contrary to the current heroin chic persona Stradlin sports today.)

Santalesa goes on to say that Stradlin was always more of a punk at heart, counter to Shire’s melodic power metal sound. He says “[Izzy] wanted to do a Ramones song and I added a solo, so everyone thought that was funny. He was the first guy I saw wearing creepers so he was ahead of his time.”

Ultimately, Stradlin would leave the band when “his friend Bill Bailey came from Indiana in 1983, so he started doing his thing with him.” (Bill would be GnR singer Axl Rose.)

I've pulled razor blades on myself -Axl

How do you explain your volatile nature? When I get stressed, I get violent and take it out on myself. I've pulled razor blades on myself but then realized that having a scar is more detrimental than not having a stereo. I'd rather kick my stereo in than go punch somebody in the face. When I get mad or upset or emotional, sometimes I'll walk over and play my piano

A psychiatrist has diagnosed Axl's problem as manic-depressive disorder,

a condition that can cause people to swing from impulsive, reckless, and argumentative fits to catatonic and suicidal periods.

"I can be happier than anybody I know," Axl says. "I can get so happy I'll cry. I can get completely opposite, upsetwise."

Many manic-depressives turn to drugs or alcohol to lessen the pain of their illness. Although Axl takes lithium to combat the disorder, he thinks it's ineffective and claims to be in control of his moods.

"Did you ever see that movie - I think it was Frances?"

Frances Farmer, an actress, was institutionalized because of her emotional outbursts.

"I always wonder if, like, somebody's gonna slide the knife underneath my eye and give me the lobotomy. I think about that a lot. "Was I, like, a major dick last night?"

Axl Rose, 24: "There's a lot of violence in the world. That's the environment we live in and we like to show what we live in rather than hide it and act like everything is nice and sugary.

Slash: We lived in a one room studio with holes in the ceiling. We got rained on a lot.

Izzy: Which is good 'cause we had no shower.

Words of wise men

Slash: ‘Not being sexist or anything, but it’s fucking amazing how much abuse girls will take.”

What did you do for money before you signed with Geffen?

“G-I-R-L-S.” Steven laughs.

Izzy: “Sold drugs, sold girls, sold… we just got it. We managed. In the beginning we’d throw parties and ransack a girl’s purse while one of the guys was with her.”

Slash: ‘Not being sexist or anything, but it’s fucking amazing how much abuse girls will take.” “Slash!” Izzy winces.

That’s not being sexist?

“He does it purposely,” Axl says with more than a hint of weariness. He attempts to cleat the air with a change of subject

I really hate how Slash talks about women. In his book too. But oh well. The others werent much better.

IZZY STRADLIN: music or sex?

Q: Which is better: music or sex?

Izzy: Pherrrgh! Oh God, I'll have to think about it. sad, eh?! I was going to say 'sex' right off the bat, but I don't know. lately, both have been pretty even keel. That's a tough one. music or sex? I'd say sex, if I gotta choose!

Rock stars are often known for their outlandish demands and unusual requests, but Axl Rose may have outdone his peers with his current tour rider.According to British tabloid newspaper The Sun, the Guns N' Roses frontman requests "wines, beers, vodka, red and white roses and a square melon" - an item that Axl says "absolutely can't be missed."

Perhaps the rider requests, which include a custom made Italian leather couch, are to ensure that venue staff read the rider carefully. Van Halen famously pulled a similar move in their hey day, asking for a bowl of M&M sweets with all the brown ones removed.It turned out that Van Halen were not adverse to brown M&Ms, but wanted to check that venue owners had read their complex stage show requirements in detail - not just so the show went off with a bang, but to ensure the safety of the band on-stage.

Random but u thought its interesting...

"One time he told me that he had sex with over 2,000 women."

During a recent Reddit AMA, which also featured his mother Deanna, former Guns N' Roses drummer Steven Adler was asked whether he fell in love with any of the groupies

"The musician replied:

"Everyone of them. For the 3 minutes I was with them. Yes. If you got 4 out of me, god bless you.

You lucked out that day."Deanna: "One time he told me that he had sex with over 2,000 women."Steven: "I was on drugs."Deanna: "I say, 'What kind of talk is that? I'm your mother. Stop it.'"Steven: "I remember telling my grandfather, my grandparents. I brought a gold record to my grandma and grandpa one day and I said, 'Here grandma and grandpa. Look. I'm famous now.' And my grandpa says, 'Yeah, that and 50 cents will get you a cup of coffee.' And he's right."

Pamela Manning talks about Axl Rose

Axl as a person, to me: Deep, quick thinker, devoted, generous at times, sentimental at times. Yet if he cuts you out of his life, I’m not sure there is room to get back in. He believes in God, loves kids, more of a loner even if he is surrounded by so-called “friends.” He has adjusted in life and says he is happy. He makes it a point to enjoy life. I like the deep conversations with him. He gets it, and it’s great to have a friend who just gets it (whatever you’re talking about) when we connect. The downside to Axl is the big ego but that goes with rock stardom and that power. It’s crazy; when I am around him, he lifts one finger and people listen – pretty scary to me! He can pretty much do what he wants in his world. Except for the other people in the music business who try to control him. He finds ways to escape that too, not totally escape, but that is another story. To me, Axl needs to learn to trust again. I know this is a hard one when trust gets destroyed. Axl has a hard time with his past; there is a lot that gets in his way, and he doesn’t want to go back there! I totally understand that! Friends get hurt, people who want to be in his life, but he had to make choices he might not like for his own good. But if he made the other choices it would be worse; it’s kinda like that song “Should I Stay Or Should I Go” by The Clash. If you get in his way he warns you before he does anything, yet the people who don’t listen… well, they will get the Axl wrath! I pray for him and hope I been a good influence in his life. It’s nice to still have the friendship and I am thankful for that.

Axl has always been a true friend to me, telling me his deepest secrets and, yep, I have kept them today. I can’t and will not talk about the deep secrets he told me. That is just not me. But wow, if you only knew… I am sure some would understand him a little better. People judge him, and I can understand why. He has not been the best example, but I think if Axl would stop bottling all the secrets, he could be a great spokesperson and could help many.

Ooo what a queennnn!! Gnr owes so much to the gurls that helped them.

Former Guns 'N Roses drummer Steven Adler was sentenced to 150 days in jail on Thursday for attacking two women in separate domestic violence incidents,

which also violates his probation from a 1997 conviction in another domestic violence case. He pled no contest to two counts of battery in a dating relationship and admitted the probation violation in West Los Angeles Municipal Court. Adler was also sentenced to three years of summary probation, with the conditions of undergoing a year of domestic violence counseling and a ban on using illegal drugs. Additionally, a protective order was issued by Commissioner Joseph S. Biderman in respect to both victims. Adler is required to turn himself in to the court at 1:45 p.m. on October 29 to begin serving his sentence or show proof that he's turned himself into a city jail.The two incidents in question occurred on January 27 and on June 7, respectively. The first erupted from a verbal argument spawned between Adler and a 43-year-old woman in his North Hollywood apartment over his alleged drug use. The victim was allegedly thrown against walls and furniture during the attack. She called 911 for assistance, however, Adler had already left the premises and couldn't be located at the time.He was eventually found in the spring, living in a condominium in Century City, California, where he was taken into custody on an arrest warrant regarding a probation violation. He was then booked and released after posting bail.The warrant had been issued in August of 1997 for failing to appear in court for a February of 1997 domestic violence case, which involved the woman he was living with at the time. In the 1997 case, Adler pled no contest to disturbing the peace and was sentenced to four days in jail. He was also placed on three years of summary probation, with a condition of attending 52 Alcoholics Anonymous meetings.In the spring arrest, Adler was charged with this probation violation as well as for the January incident. While he was awaiting his trial, he allegedly attacked another woman at his condominium on June 7. Adler allegedly pushed the 35-year-old woman's head into a wall and threw her clothes off a balcony during a dispute over money.

Guns and Roses we’re actually pretty good friends with N.W.A. Axl and Eazy-E

⋆·˚ ༘ *✧.*ੈ✩‧₊˚⋆.ೃ࿔*:･✧.*⋆.ೃ࿔*:･ੈ✩‧₊˚⋆·˚ ༘ *✧.*⋆·˚ ༘ *

Axl said in one of his 2008 forum chats that Slash made a demo tape of the song with Eazy and Axl has the tape but doesn’t want to release it cause it apparently sounds very unfinished and Eazy isn’t alive to give it his stamp of approval.

Guns and Roses we’re actually pretty good friends with N.W.A. Axl and Eazy-E we’re good friends and the two groups were planning to do a song together “the yellow roads of Compton”. Sadly the song was never produced. Axl Rose loves their stuff and wore their hats at shows.

Did anybody else imagine urs comfort characters or people be next to you all the time talking to them and making them interact so much and all the time that sometimes you feel like theyre next to you even though you don't want them to be anymore but u imagined it so often they don't leave your side now

Fr tho I can't erase them

Duff actually knew Ted Bundy when he lived in Seattle

⋆·˚ ༘ *ੈ✩‧₊˚✧.*⋆.ೃ࿔*:･ੈ✩‧₊˚⋆·˚ ༘ *✧.*⋆.ೃ࿔*:･ੈ✩‧₊˚⋆·˚

. Yes, Ted Bundy, the serial killer.He’s mentioned it twice: Raw Magazine (Sep ‘93) and Okej Magazine (Nov ‘93).

"“It was just a period of thinking that I’m not going to become a typical LA person. I’m not going to allow myself to become like that. It was just a matter of realizing that my life was a little bit different. So instead of going out and killing people…” (when Duff was growing up in Seattle, he knew the infamous serial killer Ted Bundy) “…I was lucky enough to be able to write tunes.” [Duff, Raw, Sep. 1993]"I'm happy that I can carry all these feelings and get rid of them in this way. Otherwise I might have ended up like Ted Bundy. He's from Seattle just like I am. I knew him when we grew up. Some people's thoughts drive them to kill, others write poetry, I rock!" [Duff, Okej, Nov. 1993]"

Axl Rose Interview

"There's a lot of violence in the world. That's the environment we live in and we like to show what we live in rather than hide it and act like everything is nice and sugary.

Everybody likes to paint their pretty pictures, but that just ain't how it is.

It just seems easier to know the rougher side (of life) than the more pleasant side just because it's more readily accessible.

It seems like when you come to this town unless you are part of the mommy's-boy-daddy's-money poseur rock scene they try to puke you right out," said Rose.

"You fight for your place.

I remember two years of standing at the Troubadour and talking to no one, not knowing what to do, and everybody thinking they're so cool. Eventually we did our own thing, made new friends, and brought a new crowd to the Troubadour."

I've found a pinterest post with ppl talking about Izzy having a kid

"He has a kid; his name is Jared and now, he may be in his 22. He is Izzy's son with his brazilian wife (or ex, I don't know; they were married in 2010), Nina.His facebook had nothing but few selfieswhile in boats or running with his bike or playing in studio. No words. And there was one photo of his wife, one of his brothers, one of his mother and one of his kid. At that time, he was a kid, 10-12 years old, so...today he's probably in his 23 years old, more or less. Izzy deleted his account few months after that and I never found anything else more. I hope he's living in peace.it's just a fan. Jared was exactly like young Izzy. Same face, black hair. Eyes sweeter, though.any years ago he accepted me in his facebook, for professional reasons. There was 1 single photo of his kid; he really looks like Izzy. But they're extremely private fam. One year later, he deleted his account.He's ultra private person but he accepted me, many years ago, in his facebook. Shy, always running in bikes and boats, very into nature and with a sharp sense of humor. His whole fam is there or was."

I dont really believe this, but I found it interesting. Someone was also saying that the kid in the pic is his but that is 100% not true.
