Hey, they could've been my generation's Zeppelin...but could neve quit shooting themselves in the foot. Firing Marc in '97, firing Ed in '06 (and Marc quitting AGAIN)...they just could never keep it together.
As an aside to the GN'R/Crowes connection, rumor has it that Marc was rumored to be a candidate to replace Izzy, but chose the Crowes gig instead. Marc also plays uncredited on Somebody's Knockin' and did the bong intro to Train Tracks on JuJu Hounds.
The Sweet Pickle Salad sessions from that era are AMAZING.
