GUNS N' ROSES: 'Appetite for Destruction' Rolling Stone Cover Story Excerpt Available

July 27, 2007

Rolling Stone magazine will honor the twentieth anniversary of "Appetite for Destruction" by looking back at the sex, drugs and Aqua Net that went into the making of GUNS N' ROSES' legendary debut. Click here for an excerpt of Brian Hiatt's cover story, and here for a photo gallery that catches Axl Rose, Slash, Izzy Stradlin, Duff McKagan and Steven Adler behind the scenes throughout their late-'80s/early-'90s heyday.

As previously reported, ex-GUNS N' ROSES guitarist Izzy Stradlin has confirmed via his official web site that he "may" join his former GN'R bandmate Steven Adler at the Key Club in Hollywood on Saturday, July 28 to mark the 20th anniversary of "Appetite for Destruction".

Adler stated in a recent interview that GUNS N' ROSES' classic lineup will reform for the concert — but without lead singer Axl Rose.

According to Adler, the event will include guitarist Slash, Izzy Stradlin and bassist Duff McKagan.

The Key Club's web site advertises performances by the drummer's band ADLER'S APPETITE and L.A. GUNS — the band featuring guitarist Tracii Guns, who was a member of an early incarnation of GUNS N' ROSES.
