Watch: STEVEN ADLER Performs GUNS N’ ROSES Classics At NORTHWEST WASHINGTON FAIR
Nigelpoll has uploaded video of Steven Adler‘s entire August 16 concert at the Northwest Washington Fair in Lynden, Washington. Check it out below.
Joining Adler to bring songs like “Paradise City”, “Welcome To The Jungle”, “Sweet Child O’ Mine”, “Civil War”, “My Michelle”, “Mr. Brownstone” and “Rocket Queen” to life are guitarists Michael Thomas and Alistair James, bassist Cristian Sturba and singer Ariel Kamin.
“You don’t bet better than Michael Thomas and Alistair James; they are two of the best guitarists in rock,” noted Adler.
Thomas previously delighted music fans as the lead guitarist for ENGINES OF AGGRESSION, BEAUTIFUL CREATURES and FASTER PUSSYCAT. In addition to providing Adler with smooth rhythms, James has engineered recordings for HOLLYWOOD VAMPIRES — the supergroup featuring Johnny Depp, Joe Perry of AEROSMITH, and Alice Cooper.
“Ari Kamin is the total package. He’s everything a rock ‘n’ roll front man is supposed to be,” Adler said. “Not only does he have an incredible voice, he really connects with the audience. He’s one of the best you’ll ever experience.”
Kamin replaced Constantine Maroulis of “American Idol” and “Rock Of Ages” fame, who was the vocalist for ADLER’S APPETITE for a dozen or so dates in May 2018, including an Australian tour.
Although he wasn’t included in the lineup that launched the “Not In This Lifetime” trek in 2016, Adler rejoined GUNS N’ ROSES at several shows on the tour, including three stops on the U.S. leg and one gig in Buenos Aires, Argentina, playing drums on “Out Ta Get Me” and “My Michelle”.
In February 2017, Adler revealed that he was originally supposed to appear at more than just a handful of shows on the GUNS N’ ROSES reunion trek. He claimed that he expected to play all the “Appetite For Destruction” material during the entire tour, only to be told he was out after he hurt his back during rehearsals.
Speculation was rampant that Adler would participate in at least a portion of the reunion tour ever since GUNS made it official in January 2016. The regular GUNS drummer for several years has been Frank Ferrer, who is also part of the current lineup.
