On Down the Road
(Big thanks to Izzyontour.com for maintaining the Izzy Concert Almanac for so many years!)
09.21.2003 - Los Angeles, CA, Key Club
Set: Mr. Brownstone, Knockin' On Heaven's Door, Paradise City
Info: Izzy & Slash joined their old mate Steven Adler and his new band Adler's Appetite to play three GN'R classic tunes. It was first performance of Adler, Slash & Stradlin since 13 years when they played together as Gn'R on Farm Aid IV. Couple hours before the show Izzy and Adler's Appetite guitar player Kerri Kelli went together for a dinner to eat sushi. Steven Adler: "It was real nice. Well, the guys in my band, Jizzy, Kerri are great, too. I love playing the songs with them. Having Slash and Izzy up there with us made playing those songs more real, y'know? They are my brothers, we accomplished a lot together. Playing with them again was great. I hope the fans liked it. I mean, meeting the people, everyone has been so nice. I'd like to say 'Thank you' for comin' out to all the shows, showin' how much you guys really love the songs. Every show, I tried to tell everybody that I met, 'Thank you so much.' It's been so great, I want to play for everybody forever, y'know? I love to play rock n' roll music, I love playing for you!".
10.30.2003 - Culver City, CA, Smashbox, Susan Holmes Fashion Show
Set: Angie-Mary, You Got No Right
Info: Duff's wife Susan Holmes presentation of her Spring 2004 swimwear collection. This show was originally booked as an acoustic show of Scott Weiland and Duff McKagan. In fact it was the second show in history of Velvet Revolver. Izzy Stradlin and Douglas Green joined the band to perform two songs - The Rolling Stones cover Angie (with name of Weiland's wife Mary singing in chorus) and a brand new song of the band You Got No Right.
11.16.2003 - Hollywood, CA, Avalon, Vanity Fair In Concert
Set: Ring On Fire, Jumpin' Jack Flash, Mr. Brownstone
Info: Camp Freddy is a jam-session-band including such a great musicians as Donovan Leitch (vocals), Dave Navarro and Billy Morrison (both guitars), Scott Ford (bass) and Matt Sorum (drums). Always when Camp Freddy plays a concert everybody knows there will be many invited guests. Izzy Stradlin joined the band with Gina Gershon (vocals, guitar) and together they performed Johhny Cash's Ring On Fire. After that Izzy changed his black Les Paul into Gibson Flying V while Slash and Duff McKagan joined him on stage and together with Michael Wincott on harmonica, Billy Morrison on guitar and Gina Gershon with tambourine they performed a classic Stones song Jumpin' Jack Flash with Izzy on lead vocals. Because there were four Gn'R members on the stage (with Matt Sorum on drums) there was no other way and they performed Mr. Brownstone, yet again with Stradlin on lead vocals.
