Izzy Stradlin

The unsung hero of Guns N' Roses. Was the rhythm guitarist until he left during the Use Your Illusion tour. Was a good guitarist, just didn't feel like doin' solos like Slash. It could be said that GNR could be separate into an Izzy era and a no Izzy era, since the stuff made when he was there was great and afterwords it sucked. It's a shame that no one knows who he is now.

Izzy Stradlin wrote the lyrics and/or music for these songs:

Nightrain
Mr. Brownstone
Paradise City
Think About You
Dust N' Bones
You Ain't the First
Double Talkin' Jive
Don't Cry

You Could Be Mine
etc.

Mullet

Business in the front, party in the back. Mullets started in the late 60s early 70s. By the eighties, everyone had them, absolutely everyone (who was white, blacks had jerry curls or high top fades.) Then it all came to an end when Kurt Cobain called Brett Michaels girly-looking. Billy Ray Cyrus had one, but that was like the drunk uncle at a 10 year old's birthday party. Now it's only worn by hockey and soccer players.

The term mullet was invented and 1st used in pop culture by the Beastie Boys. Who knew?
