Well, done, Phil Lewis and Co. Still not sure how the band has been lumped in with the glam/hair band thing (they wrote from the darker side of things, like G'n'R). But, I guess lazy journalists saw 'L.A.' and it was just easier to tag them as such. They've always been a much better band than given credit for (like UFO), and heavy but melodic (again, like UFO). Oh yeah, and a vocalist and guitarist that didn't get along (like UFO)...
@ibanezae20 i used to know it very well, but my memory is bad nowadays....i remember it was mainly C and G, and the lil lick in the begining was based on moving the C chord back and forth
@ibanezae20 pretty basic. mostly G and c back and forth. goes to D, then E Minor during the prechorus, then just G and C for the chorus. The fills and solos are so easy you can learn them by ear as long as you know what key it's in.
Hi, my name is Remington Draper and I gave my heart to the Lord Jesus Christ in the summer of 2003 because I realized that I had broken God's Commandments and that He was going to judge me by them of judgment day. The same is true for everyone reading this. The good news is God Loves You! and sent Jesus to pay the price for our sins and if you're willing to repent (which means to turn away from your sin) and put your trust in the Lord Jesus only to save you, He will and give you eternal life.
hahahahahaha, God doesn't love me, and if he does he's wasting his time... cause I sure as hell dont like him. So take your preachy bullsh*t elsewhere.
We're all here for the song... which btw is a damn good song :D
fuck you this is glam metal and isnt satanic you fuck face go die and burn in hell i'lkl see there ass hole because guess what im a satanist and i'll be glad to see you in hell asshole
METAL fan? If so you need 97 Underground (worldwide), where Metal lives online.
If you loved the old Underground you will bang to Metal on Metal 24/7 and commercial free.
Check out the internets best online metal radio station at: 97underground com
The Underground wants to hear from you, send them an email and tell them what you think of the new Underground. Turn on, tune in, bang your head today.
it's Phil Lewis ya numnuts! the other one is Tracii's, he's the founder of the band, and this one is with Phil and the drummer.... shows what you know!
If ever a song was written to be performed acoustically then this is definetly one of them. I loved this song the first time I heard it. L.A. Gubs rocks.
He sounds like his balls are in a vise grip for some of the high notes- people get old, their vocal cords atrophy- you must be deaf. The song was excellent in it's day- and ty for showing your intelligence :)
primero que nada el primer batero fue steve riley, y antes de seguir argumentando quiero recordar que fue Tracii Guns el que la formo en 1983, no Phil Lewis, saludos
que tiene que ver Hollywood Rose en esto, yo digo que es una falta de respeto que estos perros usen ese nombre para su proyecto de banda mala, ensucian la escencia del rock
es el vocalista origianl de la guns y la banda completa esta tambien steve riley el baterista original de la guns y creo q el bajista y el segunda guitarra tambien. antes de hacer semejante comentario informate un poco mas.
pues a mi me gusta, de todas formas yo pensaba que el inicio de L.A. Guns y G'n'Roses era un grupo que se llamaba Hollywood Rose donde coincidieron Axl Rose, Izzy Stradlin y Tracii Guns...además de Chris Weber y John Kreiss ¿?
Hey everybody Great White's going to be in Agoura Hills, CA on June 21st. The tix are only 25 dollars. The Cauze is opening for them. YOU HAVE TO CALL TO ORDER THE TICKETS: (818) 879-5016
Great acoustic version of one of my favourite ballads, I like how Phil changes the rhytm of the phrases from the original- specially in the pre-chorus. Good singing and good guitar playing...
They cant both tour under the same name though can they? who has rights to the name? I saw them with Paul, and he's hard to watch. Makes these weird twisting movements and shit. And if your that old and skinny "please put a shirt on, ugh". LOL. I'd rather see them with Phil.
yea they are both touring right now but lewis's guns posted a whole bunch of bulletins saying not to confuse them with the fake L.A. Guns (Guns, and black). it was awesome lol. Phil lewis is L.A. Guns.
The best line up is with guns, lewis, riley, cripps, and nickles. period. but now there are two L.a. guns and they are both good. so quit whining and just accept it. Paul is with Tracii in one band, an phil an steve are in the other guns. get over it
and tracci give up w/ the guns when he leave to the brides... steve and phil stick w/ the guns, so they´re teh originals... and other issue...LA Guns wasnt because of tracci, the name was given to them by brent of faster pussy cat... some say that the originals are w/ tracci... tracci and paul perhaps but the drummer and the bass player (tracii´s son) aren´t... so , who are the ones you remember being in the classic records/ videos?? thats the original... the other is tracii and friends.
the thing is that they were wrong in not giving credit rights to Paul in the first album. Imagine all the people that parade in all single band before the success, this is the case... think about "snake" sabo being quoting as the first bon jovi guitarist... because he´s the one... but no... richie won the gig...so Phil.
maybe Paul wrote most of the first album, but Janne is from the second album and its LA Guns biggest hit, so, I think Paul is not the original, its their first singer, but the original, its Phil because he´s in all the classic records, and Paul is only on the demos.
Phil Lewis is the only singer I know; he was the singer while the band had hits. Who cares about Paul Black? He was never famous, and was not part of the popular "LA Guns."
Yep That is Phil Lewis The Original singer ... in the flesh... with a couple years on his hinny.. Besides Phil and Tracii... maybe Kelly Nickels... these guys have had 9 lives plus( Faster Pussycat... )
paul's the original singer...and wrote most of the firsts hits...and i'm talking aware of what i say..anyway yeah, also phil is a great singer...but noone can say that paul sucks! did u see him live at least once?!
L.A. Guns is Tracii's band, where do you think they got the Guns??? But still, Phil's version is really good, as well as Tracii's. and you are right, Stacey is a sweetheart, since I hangout with him everyday!
I agree., tarcii is not la guns (even axl didnt want him), his version of la guns sucks major ass and la guns is right here...new live album really surprised me.
wah, ths band isnt this band without this person, get over it. things change. tracii is doing good in brides of destruction anyways, and la guns is still there. like gnr is there and velvetrevolver is there.
actually brides of destruction is over dude(2 records that bombed and... yeah that was that) and tracii is doing a tour with a different l.a. guns with paul black on vocals...which sucks ass. the real la guns is right on this video.
live is always better,... wel most of the time
