No more Winger shows! Rainbow Bash Mania!.RIP Winger!
Yep Winger last show was at The Bash!
What perfect way to end career at The Bash with LAglamrocker in attendance! Thanks WINGER!
What amazing life…every dream comes true..last Winger show- not sad…happy for bands legacy ending BEST way possible!
10 am parked- 3 gas station sandwiches..yummy x3
Walked to Rainbow saw Peacemaker billboard with John Cena!
Got in line..few hours early..well worth it..got event shirt.maybe best ever..With Nightmare On Elm Street look!
Hmm I think later in day someone asked would I ever sell it..5000$ or 50000$? I said no! Even though that’s enough cash for Fresno State season football tickets for life..but shirt is just that awesome!
Hey it was hot like 90*! Awesome!
Can’t imagine not living in So Cal..live in
postcard of FUN!
1st band on ..while i was lounging in the sun on the hill!
Walked around saw quite a few Hollywood nightlife ICONS..always fun
Got Red Bull..drank
Walked in Rainbow - place was near capacity-
Sat in front- place played Sweet Little Sister ..next song from Devil Music Vol 1 from White Zombie..another win! Yippee
Moment arrived I saw Killer Dwarfs ! Amazing band always…next show November 2026 Whisky..make plans now!
(hed pe) was next! Drank Pepsi during (hed) PE…brilliant
Michael Graves next! Sweet! With Life Sex and Death Alex Kane on guitar…looked like maybe Kane brother from WWE
OMG Trixter was next!
What honor to Hear! these songs at The Bash!
Steve and PJ were hysterical and FUN! Proud of the generation they came from! Other bands may run from it but not Trixter! They love the greatest generation of music also! It was fantastic fun just like 1991 pay per view!
One In A Million could be greatest video ever..sure felt that way all 40 minutes!
Bulletboys next! Two of them..sweet..Marq dressed like the rockstar he is…pure fun..always!
Next Winger! I guess rumor was true last Winger show ever..not sad ..happy! I grew up with Winger
Mania…so lucky! My life is like Easy Come Easy Go video..few things I love 100% but Winger lifestyle always been good to me!
Hey I met Reb Beach just before show started at the bathroom wall LOL! for photo!
Met Steve Brown again just before Winger started!
Ha ha CM Punk got punched in the ball bag from Becky Lynch then curb stomped…ha ha 1-2-3 ha ha
CM Punk sucks live Chevy Metal show few Miles Away!! Ha ha

Good read … they were still delivering at a high level unlike a few other bands from that era … hate to see them go.

Good for Winger. They found other things to do on their own rather than casino shows.

No idea about Paul Taylor.
Rod is probably going to retire. He’s like 80.
John Roth plays in Starship and will probably bounce around.
Reb has been bouncing around since “Pull”! He is most likely to do the casino circuit but let’s see what he does next with both Winger and Whitesnake retired.

Re: No more Winger shows! Rainbow Bash Mania!.RIP Winger!
I can't wait to read all the "We're going to miss you" and "Please, one more tour" comments!
And the million dollar question is... Does Kip Winger end up doing solo shows but not as Winger?
I call B.S. on a full retirement from Rock... but we shall see.

Kip & The Wingerettes can have multiple comebacks before they get to Don Dokken or Gene Simmons age.
