That earlier header into the drum riser is a all time Sludge classic.

Having all LA Guns members on speed dial takes up all the storage space even on biggest IPhone
Jani Lane and Bret Michaels should form a band called "Nelson II"

I have been updated... kind of...
Word is... he had a few cocktails... and fell out of the tour bus...
In short... walking down the stairs, or whatever... and he took a header!

How do they still afford a tour bus?

THIS!
ALL of the bands are... and it's another reason I laugh when I see the haters talking smack.
This includes the haters on FB, other social media, etc... making derogatory comments, etc... and those talking sh!t, are all sitting at home.

I've met the guy a few times and know people who have hung out with him. I don't think he's ever sober! Nice guy but messy! The clip of him falling onstage and Taime laughing just shows you how bad it is.MetalSludgeCEO wrote: ↑Thu May 02, 2024 10:43 am Word is... he had a few cocktails... and fell out of the tour bus...

Re: FALLING DOWN > Faster Pussycat bassist falls out of Tour Bus & Suffers a Broken Arm, replacement is LAG's Johnny Mar
They take MINIMUM off days... look at the schedule... there are only 2 off days over the month of May!
And the 1st week was 6 shows in 7 days... so... in a nutshell, 30 shows and 3 off-days.
The cost of going on tour is A LOT and every off day, you're burning money, for the band, crew, rentals, rooms, food, gas, etc...
5/2- Beacon Theater- Hopewell, VA (with Stephen Pearcy)
5/3- Anchor Rock Club- Atlantic City, NJ*
5/4- Dunellen Theater- Dunellen, NJ*
5/5- M3 Festival- Columbia, MD (FP Only)
5/6- Buntsy’s Band Stand- Rochester, NY*
5/7- The Winchester- Cleveland, OH*
5/9- The Paramount- Ashland, KY*
5/10- Machine Shop- Flint, MI*
5/11- Blue Note- Harrison, OH*
5/12- Pieres- Fort Wayne, IN*
5/14- Venue Event Center- Cadillac, MI*
5/15- Dannenberger Vineyards- New Berlin, IL*
5/16- Revival Music Hall- Peoria, IL*
5/17- Route 47 Pub- Minneapolis, MN*
5/18- Beaver Bottoms Saloon- Fountain, MN*
5/19- The Vixen- McHenry, IL*
5/20- Diamond Music Hall- St. Peter’s, MO+
5/21- 1867 Bar- Lincoln, NE+
5/22- Little Bear Live- Evergreen, CO+
5/23- Herman’s Hideaway- Denver, CO+
5/24- Leatherheads- Draper, UT+
5/25- Blackbird Bar- Cedar City, UT (FP Only)
5/26- The 44- Glendale, AZ (FP Only)
Also... my guess is... Taime offers the guys a flat fee/pay, per show, or per week... and they likely get limited hotels the same.
The bus is essentially their motel/hotel for the next month... and if they get a room, it's likely a room, that everyone shares, to shower, etc.

Re: FALLING DOWN > Faster Pussycat bassist falls out of Tour Bus, Suffers Broken Arm, replacement is LAG's Johnny Martin
Anybody happen to know what ever happened to their original drummer Mark Michals?
He absolutely disappeared after getting fired in 1990. Taime said he "hasn't heard from him in years, he's probably dead" and it seems like that's the case.

When I saw them on the Poison tour some dude near me claimed he was neighbors with him.

Where was that?
I found an interview with Brent Muscat saying they've tried to find him and couldn't track him down, including someone hiring a detective to find him and couldn't.
And the last he'd heard of him someone said he was walking around L.A. asking people where CBGB's is. Erm.

LA Guns and Faster Pussycat members are interchangeable parts.

This would have been LA area. Usually people are pretty easy to find either way but if Michals is a stage name that would make it more difficult. He also apparently played in a band in Georgia called the Tombstones in 1992?
And from https://www.knac.com/article.asp?ArticleID=5578
KNAC.COM: When your drummer mailed himself that heroin while you guys were on the road, did it occur to you at the time that it was as dumb as it sounds right now?
TAIME: Yeah, brilliant move--it was just pathetic. What was even dumber was that Eric Stacy (former bassist, Faster Pussycat) did it the following year when he went on vacation to Pennsylvania with his girlfriend. He did the exact same thing that Mark Michals (former drummer) got busted for. Mark had been warned a million times about his heroin problem getting us in trouble. That was the final straw. That was also Eric’s warning. Then the same thing happened to Eric a year later. He went out and did the exact same thing. That’s how fuckin’ bright he is. That’s why he was eliminated from the band too.

Re: FALLING DOWN > Faster Pussycat bassist falls out of Tour Bus, Suffers Broken Arm, replacement is LAG's Johnny Martin
Good catch on the Tombstones, that would match up with what Brent said in the same interview that one time back in the day (this would have been 1992) they were playing a club in Atlanta and Mark randomly showed up in the crowd.ijwthstd wrote: ↑Thu May 02, 2024 12:37 pm

From the little bit I could dig, I'm pretty sure his last name was Michalsky. The last record I can find of him living in LA is an apartment..... in 1990, haha.
And yeah, there aren't very many leads beyond that, other than I found a relative listed with him who lives in L.A. and has a different last name, and a listing showing Mark going by that last name at some point. Shrug.
That person is almost as hard to track down, they tried to file a name change to a very bizarre name in 2019 and it was denied because he's "still on parole", haha. And his listed address at the time was a halfway house.
The lack of info out there leads me to believe he just disappeared one day. Outside of contacting the person I mentioned who may be a relative of his and asking, I think it's a dead end.

Thought they reported he died a couple years back?
