Actor Gary ("Buddy Holly") Busey, who's in town filming "Rookie of the Year," showed up at China Club Wednesday night with Chicago Teamster-
turned-actor Eddie "Bo" Smith, of "Mo' Money" fame and sat in the kitchen with China Club grand poohbah B.J. Murray. Busey ate Chinese, played
guitar, sang Buddy Holly songs and admired staff members' tattoos. Sneedlings . . .

"Cuttin' The Rug" - stage front or elbow on the bar, you're still gonna enjoy 'em without needing to glue your eyes to the stage for fear of missing
something. And just like Gn'R Lies turned some fresh faces onto the likes of Aerosmith and Rose Tattoo, Izzy Stradlin and the Ju Ju Hounds visibly
stunned the palates of 500 Novocastrians on Wednesday. They liked it, chanting their approval and refraining from making gunners requests, proving
wrong that psudes no doubts say to each other about them. Izzy's gonna do himself a lot of good with this project, no matter how long it lasts, but he's
going to broaden the musical education of thousands along the way. Who needs a trillion bucks when you can be in the tightest, coolest, most
entertaining garage band on the planet, anyway?

changed a little bit the lyrics of another classic tune Rockin' Daddy, singing 'They call me a rocker I can fuck you all night long...'. A
great performance of Little Red Rooster with Rick on lead vocals.

capture our attention. At 8.45ish Charlie started a small drum roll as the rest of the band entered the stage and kicked off with Bucket O’ Trouble, he
stormed through the rest of the set with very little interaction with the crowd. My guess was that the majority of the crowd (possibly about 1000) had
not heard the album by this point as not many people were singing along with the songs. The set listing is Bucket O’ Trouble, Cuttin’ The Rug, Walkin’
The Wrong Highway, Crackin’ Up, take your Sorrow, Just a Fool, Shuffle It All, Somebody Knockin’, Take a Look At The Guy, Train Tracks, Been a
Fix, Pressure Drop, Highway 49, Wipe out, Pills, Goodnight Tonight. (This setlist comes from The Lonely Rose bootleg - Rumba thought it's from
Barrowlands but in fact it's Barcelona - m_klimek) Izzy and crew were dressed all in black, played numerous different guitars, rick stuck with mainly
Gibson les Pauls and Izzy with 335s, les Pauls and a telecaster. They were pretty static on the stage, very little movement from any of them, Rick
strutted the stage a couple of times bur Izzy must have not moved more than a few feet from the centre. The show lasted approx 1 hour 20 minutes. My
group left the venue on a high as we had just seen an absolutely brilliant show, however in the pub later on we were talking to others who were not
impressed, they were expecting Guns N’ Roses and did not know any of the songs that he played. The next day we headed out to the Barras market,
(again I am led to believe this is world famous) the market was and possibly still is the hub for much illegal activities, anything you want you get find
here. The main reason that we went there was to pick up bootlegs, tapes (those things that hiss when you play them), records (circular black things)
and videos. Every concert that gets played within the barras venue is recorded and is then sold on cassette tape in the market thee next day, leave it a
couple of weeks and if there is enough demand it would also appear on vinyl. So off to the market we headed to collect our tapes. We picked up the
nights before Izzy show and some other tapes from concerts at the time as well as a copy of Rock in Rio on video from 1991. The concert was just as we
remembered it I listened to it in my car for years. (...)Anyways to summarize, the show was the best £10 that I have ever spent on a concert, I just wish
he would tour again and charge the same for the ticket.

mad and crazy me too, I lost my friend. Fuck 90% of Guns N roses playing It's so easy!!! And Slash doing solos like Satan!!! Too much for my body.
Izzy said. Thank you and went out of the scene. I didnt like Slither very much I don´t know why, Sex type thing was good. And Negative creep fucking
good, Dave blow up this song, he is the man, Scott threw himself to the public. All the song was a madness. And this is the end of my first contact with
Velvet Revolver.

sector before the stage was full of fans so this band was the real first support of the day. They made a really cool show. But they were nothing when we
compare them to the next guy who entered the stage - Sebastian Bach. He just smashed all the supports - people went crazy. He was waving his
mickrophone, he was just like a beast - looking with his devil's eyes at the fans and smiling to them when someone sang a song with him. He played
some Skid Raw songs but also the stuff from his solo discography. His guitarplayer was a polish guy so he translated everything to the fans what
Sebastian wanted. Really great show, at this time all the fans knew the Guns N' Roses are coming. Sebastian Back finished his show just after 8p.m.
and the GNR crew hit the stage to make clean. My friend Andy started to scream Guns N' Roses so the whole stadium continued. We all thought GNR
will hit the stage at about 9:30 but they did it a hour before. At this moment You felt really big squeeze cause everybody wanted to be closer the stage. I
saw Dizzy first - everybody went nuts - he just sit on the left site of the stage just before his keyboards. Brain with his headphones on the top was
looking really cool. Me and all the fans were very suprised the band came on the stage so early. In one moment we heard the Welcome To The Jungle
short intro riff and all the fans were screaming like beasts - me too of course !!! In one moment I saw him - he was standing upturned to the fans in the
middle of the stage and drinking something I think. Then he get out to the fans - the Welcome to the Jungle intro riff was still playing - that were
seconds. Axl standed just at the beginning of the stage just before our heads. I went crazy, I don't remember if I ever screamd so much in my whole life.
I fucked up my throat in couple seconds !!! I couldn't believe I see him. My friend Lukas threw his Guns N' Roses flag just before Axl's legs. Rose just
looked at the flag and wanted to lift it up but he stopped and didn't do it (maybe because besides of the GNR skull there were also picutres of old
members of the band - I don't know)... too bad. Anyway Axl was looking really great - his brown leather, dark glasses, blue jeans - he was like a God
!!! I think I couldn't believe this is a reality. I grabbed a hand of my friend - we both couldn't believe it !!! Suddenly Axl screamed: "Who know where
the fuck You are !!!" and the whole band started to play Welcome to the Jungle. We started to jump and sing the song with Axl. I was standing just
before the stage but a little bit on the left so I couldn't see what's goin on on the right side of the stage so I didn't see Tommy very well. The fans were
pushing so hard that I was feeling like a wave on the see - going left, right but still screaming and singing. I really couldn't believe in this everything
and remember screaming to my friend and looking at Axl: "My God this is like a movie !! This is like a movie !!". I was watching this guy for last
couple years only in tv so it was a big shock for me. Probably after the Jungle, Rose said sth like: "We've got a great crowd tonight" and the reaction
of fans was electric.Then they played It's So Easy and Mr. Brownstone without any break. I think I concentrate most of all at this what do I see and not
what do I hear. It was an experience I had never before - just like I wrote before, it was a big shock for me. I don't remember the exactly moments of
the show - I just remember some situations - the reaction of the fans on Live And Let Die was very enthusiastic. I think during this song we saw the
fireworks blow for the first time which was an incredible effect (after every blow the wave of warm air was around). I think it was during Live and Let
Die when I realized that I don't feel very well. From the beginning the weather wasn't very well - it was very sticky and I just knew I must calm down
for a moment and stop jumping and singing. Before Better Axl said that we are very bad 'cause we were downloading this song from the internet.
Because I don't have an internet at home I had no possibility to download it so I really didn't this song very well - I just heard it once somewhere. So
during this and all new songs the crowd was very "calm".But after that everybody went crazy because the band started to play Bob Dylan's Knockin'
On Heaven's Door. The performance wasn't very good. While the band played a new version of the song, all the fans were singing the older one from
UY II what was a little bit funny. I never liked Robin Finck - just becuase of his image. But today he looks just great - with his white pants and red
socks as someone realized that were colours of polish flag. In my opinion he was the best guitarplayer of the evening - he was everywhere, running
from left into the right, he was just great and his solo was really cool. And when in one moment he started to play the intro of Sweet Child O'Mine all
the fans went crazy (yes again but which time this evening?). Dizzy Piano Solo was probably the most boring moment of the show - maybe Axl just
needed a longer break. The Blues was cool (Andy and me were singing the Rio 2001 part "OK Nevermind" which was really funny). You Could Be
Mine was always my favourite GNR song so that's why I was so angry at Brain who tottaly fucked up the drumby intro. Most of the fans didn't know
what song did the band play because of his mistake. I screamed so much that one guy standing before me told me to stop yelling and I just told him to
shut up. I think many people were waiting for that song - after calm audience during The Blues we all were like back to living during You Could Be
Mine. After that one the whole band left the stage and Ron had his solo on Bumblefoot Guitar with the wings. It was the song that Guns N' Roses didn't
play for about thirteen years. Ron started to play Don't cry as a solo and he waved to the fans to sing the song, what we made - really cool moment of
the show, we all were like Axl's voice just for couple minutes. The guitars on Chinese Democracy weren't so heavy like it should be but the
performance of the song was really great. But like always it was unreleased song so some of the fans were just standing. Later on, Axl sit on his piano
and started to play an intro which led into November Rain - probably this song got the biggest ovation from the fans. Richard played the first solo I
think, then Ron and Robin played the closing one. Funny thing - during the introducions I saw Tommy for the second time on that show just becuase of
mines bad view from the right side of the scene. Fortus' solo wasn't anything special but his duet with Robin was something amazing. Not many people
knew it was Beautiful, originally performed by Aguillera (maybe Fortus was the guy who wrote the music of that song?). That was the worst moment of
the show... the band started to play Out Ta Get Me and I don't know why but I got wrong and thought it was Think About You. I just was talking to
myself "Hey where's Izzy??". I looked at one of my friends with a bad face but he probably didn't know what I'm thinking about. But later I realized it
was Out Ta Get Me and everything was alright... what a dumb ass. Before next song Axl said something like: "I would like to introduce You a friend of
the band..." and everybody thought it was about Stradlin so we started the Izzy chant. But Rose said we could see him before and we all realized it was
Sebastian Bach, who entered the stage to sing My Michelle. This one was also one of the best performance of the evening - Axl singing one line and
Sebastian other - great stuff. At last this happend... "We would like to introduce You a friend of the band... mr. Izzy Stradlin". I couldn't believe... I was
screaming, smiling, jumping, waving in one moment. I don't remember if it was at this moment (maybe not ) but I remember me as the one who started
one of Izzy chants this evening, but it could be after Think About You which was the first song played by Izzy. He looked great with his old hat, black
leather or jeans, dark glasses, he waved to the fans just to say welcome. I didn't hear it but some of the fans sitting in other sectors said Izzy said "Hi"
to the mickrophone. After greeting Stradlin looked at Brain and they both started the song. Oh and he played the guitar solo just like he did on original
version of Think About You. During Patience one girl standing next to me was crying with heavy tears... I can understand that. A great moment while
the vocal part "I sit here on the stairs cause I rather be alone..." when Axl came to Izzy and they were smiling together. Then someone threw a polish
flag with Guns N' Roses logo on it into the stage. Axl grabbed it and covered himself what was really nice. Nightrain - absolutely the best moment of
the show - I don't know why and how but this band played this song with so big enthusiasm like no other song from the set. The intro "Loaded like a
freightrain..." was singing twice by the fans cause Axl told us to sing it again. I think there was a little confusion cause Izzy wanted to play the solo and
he looked at Richard, Ron or Robin and didn't do it but I can be wrong. After that the whole band left the stage. We all knew it wasn't the end of the
show so we started to the Guns N' Roses chant. I was very suprised while I heard the keyboard intro of Madagascar cause I thought this song was
dropped from the tour set. It was always my favourite new song and the same thing happened this night. Like always during playing the new songs the
fans were just standing and watching the show and I think I was the only one around (near to me) who was singing this song: "I won't be told
anymore..." while the Martin Luther King speech was really cool. A woman, about 50 from the crowd asked me what's the song... she also told me she's
GNR fan since 1986 so she should stand in the first raw... I said yeah but it was a bullshit. I.R.S. was quite good - I heard that song about three times
before so I didn't know it very well, maybe except the chorus. I could see Axl was doing one's best of his vocals. We all knew it was coming to the end
of the show when Robin started to play the intro which led into Paradise City. Izzy was back on the stage and all the fans behaved like the show just
began - we all were jumping and singing. Some fans threw the flag "Axl take us to the Paradise City" which Axl took and were showing to the fans. He
also started to running trough the whole stage for couple times which was incredible. Myself, I wasn't looking at Axl or other bandmates - I was
looking at Izzy. That's why I didn't see how Axl throw the mickrophone into the crowd at the end of the song and many other situations on the show
which were later told me by my friends. At the end of Paradise City the serpentine was blow into the air and we all feel amazing. But it was the end...
they all stand in line and leaned to say goodbye. Brain, Dizzy, Chris, Tommy, Ron, Richard, Robin, Axl and Izzy left the stage, the lights were put out
and we all knew it was over. I couldn't believe, I felt like it was half an hour but in fact the show last two hours and fifteen minutes. We all just leave
the sector and the guys from stadium crew gave us the tickets back (they took it when we were getting into the sector). I called my bro and my pop to

say everything is alright and we hit for GNR metteing... it was 11p.m. and the fans meeting ended at 5a.m. About thirteen years ago polish media
started a rumour that Axl said "I won't play for Jewish and Polish people...". Nobody believe it from the fans but it was sad hear from people some shit
like "why you listen a guy who doesn't play for polish...". I think this concert was a proof that this rumour was only a bullshit... Shame... that only half
of the stadium was full... even Axl said something while looking at the crowd that they made Budapest full... but in Budapest were about 11,000 of fans
and here in Poland... 12,000. I think we were a very good crowd, we had a fun, we were singing, screaming, jumping... everything. I felt shame because
of half stadium was empty but I was proud of our public. I think this concert was the best one that I was ever and I will ever be... couldn't be better -
thank You Axl, Robin, Ron, Richard, Tommy, Dizzy, Chris and Sebastian. And after about 6 years of waiting I met my hero - it was a great experience.
My friends told that his visit in Poland was like winning one million dollars. I just can say my dream came true... I won't forget that till the end of my
life. Thank You Izzy.

After leaving Guns N' Roses, Izzy and his old friend Jimmy Ashhurst (ex-Broken Homes) decided to make a new band together. Rick
Richards comes from Georgia Satellites while Charlie Quintana from Cruzadors.
Izzy: "We've got Rick Richards on the guitar, he used to play with the Georgia Sattelites, but they've splitted now. Yeah, that's sad.
Charlie Quintana is on the drums. He played with a lot of people, Bob Dylan, Little Bob, yeah, Your Little Bob! Jimmy Ashhurst is on
the bass. He worked a lot with Stiv Bators. And me, as everybody knows, I used to be in the Bee Gees (big laugh). Sorry, I always get
confused, I meant Guns N' Roses!".
Rick Maestro of Six Strings Richards, Izzy Mr. Invisible Stradlin, Charlie Chalo Quintana, Jimmy Two Fingers Ashhurst
Tourbook: A really funny story happened to the band during Ju Ju Hounds North American Tour 1993. Once when the band was
travelling with the tour bus, there happened a fire inside of the vehicle and in one moment everybody had to get out of the bus. After
awhile the situation was normal and Ju Ju Hounds continued the trip...
The chemistry between Izzy and Rick is so great that it was imposible to not have Richards in the band - maestro of six strings like
Izzy calls him is the only musician from Ju Ju Hounds who is back with Izzy on the road in 2000. Bassplayer - Duff McKagan is
Izzy's old friend from Guns N' Roses. Taz used to play in Reverend Horton Heart.
Izzy and his band - Duff, Rick, Ian McLagan (who played on Ju Ju Hounds,
River & On Down The Road albums as a guest) and Taz
Because Guns N' Roses was very popular in Japan, the public went crazy seeing the two of original GNR mates together. McKagan:
"In Japan everybody was around us freaked, seeing the two of us together. It was exciting".
