I should've stayed away from this thread...

How did it go so wrong? Did his firing REALLY send him that far over the edge? The guy had major talent. I don't care what any of the new GNR nutswingers say. Even the "Duke of cool" himself Izzy said that nothing worked once Adler was removed from the equation. Izzy basically hung on until the UYI release and then bailed.

Why couldn't Adler see he had other options? It wasn't just GNR or bust. He was a well known name at the time. Could have easily found work in established bands. Hell, if the guy had actually cleaned himself up and not trashed the band in magazines, might have even been brought back into GNR.

He's just one of those people. For a real answer you'd need psychic evaluations, childhood, circumstance, state of mind etc. Even then we'd still just be guessing. Jones, Scott, Morrison...some just go all the way.

I wouldn't put too much stock in Izzy's comments. It may have felt that way when he left, but it wasn't only because of Adler. The whole band was falling apart due to a variety of reasons. If the rest of the group had kept their act together it wouldn't be a problem bringing in a new drummer.

Look at them today. Izzy still fears all the pressure from being in a big band. Slash came out of rehab 2 years ago. Axl has gotten better, but the baggage is still there. He's got an extreme need of privacy and positive environment. Guys like Slash and Matt can't provide him with that. They're simply not mature enough.

Touching is alright, but it should come after sex.

WHAT?!? Michael BAY is making the Jason movie?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

God help us all. This I can never ever forgive.

This gotta be unconstitutional or something, right? Can I sue?

It was 2005, no? I shook hands with Scott on that gig. Damn, that guy is tiny.
