So now it's confirmed that Axl was indeed responding to a "Where's Izzy" sign in Nashville when we heard him say "That's a good question!  But this is all you're gonna get!"

http://www.alternativenation.net/guns-n-roses-first-2016-statement-izzy-stradlin/

A Guns N? Roses fan named Caroline Campos brought a ?Where?s Izzy? sign to GNR?s recent show in Nashville, and she claimed her sign was taken away and destroyed.

A GNR representative tells Ultimate Guitar: ?GN?R would never make this request! Izzy is family!?

In response to this woman's claim, which was pretty dramatic if it did happen....

?Ok so last night I had this ?Where?s Izzy? sign.....

So when the original drummer Steven Adler‪‬ came out to play his set, I held up my sign with cheers from most of the people in my section.  Axl looked at my sign and started laughing and said ?That?s a good question!?  He seemed to appreciate the sign.  I put the sign away during actual performances so I wouldn?t block the people behind me, only held it up between songs when the lights came on.

About 10 to 15 minutes later, while GNR‪‬ was playing "November Rain", our section got swarmed by security AND stage crew (with headsets on). They went row by row asking ?Who has the sign??  Who has the Where?s Izzy sign??  Eventually they made it to the row behind me and saw the sign tucked under my chair.  A guy in jeans and a black shirt tapped my shoulder and said ?Is that your sign? You need to give it to me.?  I said ?Why? Who are you?? He showed a badge and said ?I?m with the band and they?ve asked for the sign to be removed.?  I said, ?We aren?t allowed to have signs?? But I read that..? and he cut me off and said ?You can?t have THAT sign.  Give it to me.?  I gave it to him and he walked away folding and ripping it up.

'WHERES IZZY" jesus can people just let it go. I mean I want to see him up there like everyone else but Izzy does what Izzy wants to do and I am guessing that he just doesn't want to be involved in a WORLD TOUR. People just go and have fun.

People "with the band" have badges? I don't buy it, unless she was poorly describing a laminate or something.

So I read that Fernando ordered it to be taken down. At gigs in Ireland normally they don't let people carry signs or flags or even selfie sticks

Logical explanation: security confiscated her sign because fans behind her complained, or because they thought it would obstruct the view of fans behind her.

What an annoying woman. Axl acknowledged your sign, now put it down shut the fuck up and enjoy the rest of the show.
I saw no security

Not sure which article has "[Steven]" added to Axl's quote like above which is wrong.  The "all you're gonna get" part of quote obviously refers to NOT answering the question.  Kind of makes a big difference if you ask me. 
Either way the fan was daddy's little princess type of annoying.

Absolutely. People who take signs to concerts are annoying.

I call bullshit on the whole thing- it's way more likely she was shouting, constantly holding the sign up, flapping it around, and people were getting pissed off. Can't stand people that turn concerts into 'LOOK AT ME' events for themselves.

I'd say this is as bad as people yelling 'WHERE'S SLASH?" at Axl during the time he wasn't in the band. Get over it, or stay at home. No one is making you go to a concert if you don't want to see the band onstage.

This is still annoying as fuck. You still don't want to get your view of the interaction on stage blocked. And she's not the one who decides when other people can or can not see the stage.

Axl obviously found it funny . IF that was the only time she held it up I don't think it's a big deal. Whether she intended or not the sign is in jest due to that being a prominent saying/joke within GNR and a GNR video.

However if it was disturbing the people behind her trying to enjoy the show ... Then it has to go.

I don't think it's comparable to the Slash shirt thing. Which obviously everybody in "the camp" was not on the same page about.

Just go and enjoy the amazing show. Signs don't need to be there no matter what they say.

Same goes for cell phones. Leave them at home. You don't need them.

If you think people hold up their signs just once, then I got a bridge to sell. Wink
