There were many issues, including Axl's lateness, but the main reason was the ongoing substance abuse by Slash, Duff and Matt:
Slash comments in the book about the last shows that you did before you left the band, when you asked Axl to show up on time.
Izzy: "Axl continued arriving at each concert behind schedule. In 1991, the regular thing was that Axl delayed each concert, like minimum, two hours."
What do you think is the reason that Guns N' Roses ended up separating? Do you think that the drugs played a great role in the breakup of the band?
Izzy: "I don't know if the drugs were the reason. When I left the band, I was completely clean for two and a half years, from 1989 on. And when I was myself again, I really didn't know what happened, because I wasn't there any longer."
But, the drug consumption in the band caused you to make the decision to leave?
Izzy: "Yes. As I told you, I was clean for two and a half years already. I was seeing how my friends were dying, and after some time of that I decided that I'd had enough. I didn't want to continue being a part of that. Now we're all clean, and that's great."
