Yeah I liked every lineup pretty much, but anything over having Slash and Duff back in the band doesn’t make any sense to me.
Best NuGuns moment for me was seeing them live in AC at the House of Blues in 2012. First time seeing any of them in that lineup. AC was perfect place to see them cause who cares how late they go on there. Show started at midnight, lots of fine ladies in the crowd, Axl’s performance was strong as hell, 2017 in Hershey was only other time out of 4-5 GnR shows where Axl might have sounded better than the 2012 AC.
After the show we went to the Foundation Room to party cause entry was free w ticket. Hanging out having a smoke and sudsed up, i look over out of a few people out there and here comes Tommy, Bumblefoot, Fortus, Dizzy, and their wives/gfs. Maybe Pitman, I don’t think Frank was there. Talked to them a lil but got distracted by some females and after hanging with them inside at the bar (20 yr old model paid to tour w the band was disappointing my head is shaved when she put my hat on :(). So go to go back outside on the deck and now security has it blocked off and I can’t get back. So from that point we kept sneaking back into the area they came up from thinking maybe Axl is back there. Well it makes sence now working in the casino that after that back room was a kitchen and corridor to elevator. But we kept going back and a nice security guy would catch us again and again but was nice as hell every time, just in case Axl came back there.
Before going to that after party, Ashba was out on the gaming floor for selfies with a casino host or security. I shook his hand but no photoselfy and I don’t do autographs, so talked to him a bit and remember telling him if there were any extra groupies cause I bought some gas station boner pills on whim driving here. He laughed.
….went looking for breakfast at 7am and we ended up having more beers with a group of hookers that just got off the clock. What a fun and hilarious AC and GnR trip…
