If he doesn’t have any luck finding a band, the face painting kiosk on Fremont Street is hiring. He’d probably make more money there. Maybe he could work at the KISS mini golf course at the Rio? Might bring in an extra three people per year.

[LAglamrocker]

any HAIR BANDS MTV stopped playing 33 years AGO give Stacey Blades phone call to his house phone line or BEEPER!
He is only 56!
Your band must have at least 1 Gold record built in audience of 500-2000 per gig. Must have tour bus for his lifestyle
His band credit card must have 5000$ limit

Blades is a killer player and Tales From the Strip is the best LA Guns album there is.

Shame he isn't working.

Wasn’t Blades some big up-and-coming band during or after the pandemic? What happened with that?

Wasn’t Blades in a band that was gaining traction during or after the pandemic? What happened with that?

Nobody is gaining traction at his age. Jesus you people are delusional.

I would rank Tales From The Strip and Hollywood Foverever right after the 1st 3 albums. Songwriting and production are 100x better than the forgettable garbage they have released since the (faux) reunion.

While Blades was in CW, all he talked about was he was over the hairband era & was now contemporary
Ego must be bruised
Wasnt Blades a guy the CEO wasnt fond of??

You mean getting a write-up on Sleazeroxx isn't "gaining traction"?

What was CF again? Did the band split or did Blades get the boot?

Adam Bomb (was a respectable stage name, for 45 years ago)

Tracii Guns (a fitting stage name for the time, era of the mid 80's)

BulletBoys (fair enough, it works as a band name as well for the era)

So, let's review... we got a Bomb, Guns and Bullets... not to mention... Guns N' Roses... which in reality, is an off-shoot of Mr. Guns work with Rose.

In expected fashion, the imitators will show up in time... and with all the weapons being used... or at least most of 'em... what is a guy supposed to do next?

Knick Knife

Frankie Fork

Shannon Shovel

Bobbie Barbed Wire

and let's not forget...

Stacey Blades!

I gave the song 2 minutes. Are all of these old rocker guy’s that damn dumb when it comes to simple songwriting? A 5th grader could have written this.

Funny the Amazon link on their YT link is no longer available.

Without question, zero creativity across the board.

He had a steady gig. But thought he was more than a scab.

[LAglamrocker]

Kiss mini golf at Rio received 148 applications from 148 former LA Guns members :.good luck to all!

Congratulations ! Scotty Griffin on landing the face paint gig..big tips!! #unlv

Thought the same, was gonna blast that album in a bit.

[dmbrocker]

Maybe Blobster will hire him back when Bobby Blotzer's Ratt Experience becomes a thing again.

Maybe he could work there at Victory Burger. I don't think he would be qualified for Barry's Downtown Prime.

""""""""""""He had a steady gig. But thought he was more than a scab.""""""""""""

Not calling him a scab, but... this x1M!

I remember at the time, he had been in L.A. Guns for a good period, recorded a few studio albums, including that last one "Hollywood Forever" with Andy Johns which got a fair amount of praise. I would like to attribute some of this due to the fact that they had a world-class Producer involved.

And whatever praise it received, it appeared to go to his head... as he quit the band less than 6 months after it was released.

Kind of self-sabotaging... only to launch an 80's tribute band soon after that did little to nothing. Oh well.

Scabs are hilarious
Cool ones seem grateful for the situation- filling need so I can see those bands like 50xs last few decades. When originals get on stage..it’s massive change . They seem humbled.. realize they are just fill ins for years or decades

Best scabs are the ones that believe they are originals but not. Fans come up after for autographs classic pictures and CDs. Fans thinking it’s them. Scabs alway say things like “ that’s my band good times ..I’ve never seen LA Gun scab members do this never

Scabs at Paladino’s level were always my favorite- Key Club also

Funniest ever was Cathouse show..the host introduced Faster Pussy Cat as they walking on stage saying something like “ if it wasn’t for these guys we would not be here”…it was all the scabs coming on stage …then the singer came out

Is Michael Grant missing? I would have bet he would have taken over…maybe he is in Ghost?

Knick Knife

There's a world in the multiverse where Frank Ferrana chose Knikki Knife as a name and everyone now thinks that's cool.
