Erik's out, who's next.............?

Total momentum breaker for them.

If they were smart they'd take a year off and let it settle.

Anyone got the goods?

I agree they should take some time off. Maybe concentrate on promoting the new Skid Row alcohol.

You actually want Stevie to take a break from taking a break?

Take a year off? They're all 59-60. They don't have time for that.

This... I was thinking the same thing...

Bach just about to release a NEW record... tour dates set for the year, likely into next... etc...

This might have to be a "come to Jesus" moment... for all... and in 2026 30 years later... they make a return?

There’s plenty of kids out there who can sing, find another Erik.

Failing that get Seb Bach back and go out as Sebastian Bach with Skid Row - they can call the tour ‘He’s Bach!!!!’.

No?

Maybe could get the guy from Tank or DAD or something…

take a year off? they just barely came back.

Not sure but it wouldn't be hard to imagine the guy with the dangling jewelry from his nose to his ear being a D bag. and he's presumably the leader.

They could just roll on with the next unknown singer and probably do the same numbers.

Could see them getting Bach back and doing openings on a GNR tour or something similar. Or they could headline on a package tour with Slaughter, Quiet Riot and Jack Russell or similar.

Stevie, I know your stand on touring with toxic ex-band members. However, can this band really move forward with another new singer? It’s a shame because I really enjoyed where they were going with this lineup. I felt like they had some good momentum for where they were at career wise. As a fan, I’m not sure I would have much interest in a new singer. This is coming from someone who liked and supported the Gronwall and Solinger eras. Enough is enough though.

Not going to be able to top Erik.
He killed the Baz era songs and sounded amazing on the new stuff, plus had the whole cancer recovery story etc.
I could see a Guns/Motley/Skid reunion stadium tour next summer for sure.

I was thinking the same thing. Not big on conspiracy theories, but dropping out with only four dates left on a tour is suspect (unless there is a significant health decline we are not aware of). Would not be surprised at all if they have already signed on to tour with Motley with Baz out front

I wonder if they would try to make Bas sign a contract that he can't go on his crazy rants in between songs...haha. Like he would sign that.

Sebastian Bach = Draymond Green

For those who follow the NBA... it seems Draymond got ejected again last night, touched a ref, got a Technical Foul, then would NOT shut up, NOT drop it, NOT let it go... and go another... and out.

He has no ability to control himself... even with Millions of dollars on the line... some guys just don't "get it" and I think Bach is 1 of them!

Except that it's been 30+ years since Bas has had millions of dollars on the line.

I think they should go with the CEO next, then work their way through the board until every single one of us has sung for Skid Row, and then and only then throw Baz a bone and let him do a song or two at an outdoor county fair in Nebraska in the middle of January

Plenty of younger vocalists that can pull off the SR catalog.

They should get Alyona, who sounds better than Bach

Maybe get Matt Fallon, ZP, and Harnell together and ask about the environment in Skids and why it didn't work out.
