On Down the Road
09.04.2004 - Bologna, Italy, Independent Days Festivals
Set: It's So Easy
Info: Velvet Revolver opened the concert at 21:40 with Sucker Train Blues. After they finished another songs from the set - new single song called Fall To Pieces, Scott Weiland said: "Our good friend... ladies and gentlemen mr. Izzy Stradlin !!". All Guns N' Roses fans on Via Stalinogrado station went crazy and started chant "Izzy, Izzy, Izzy". Izzy with Gibson GS, sunglasses and bandana looked really great. Together they performed GN'R killer It's So Easy with Stradlin singin' background vocals during chorus like he used to do it in Guns N' Roses years. After Izzy left the stage and the band wanted to played next song the public started to scream 'Guns N' Roses!!' and Duff said: "It was Velvet Revolver you should scream Velvet Revolver". After the band finished the concert 1/4 of audience left the stadium, didn't care about next concert of Independent Days Festival - The Darkness. According to one attendee, Izzy had been hanging out in the backstage area during the show unrecognized by most people, wearing sandals, black pants and a black shirt.
