About to embark on a World Tour with his band Adlers Appetite, legendary Guns N' Roses drummer Steven Adler rocked the Opium Garden Nightclub at the Hard Rock Casino in Hollywood, FL. Traveling with bandmate Chip ZNuff, Steven flew into South Florida for a special engagement that wont soon be forgotten by those in attendance. Playing along to a series of modern dance hits and rock classics, Adler enthralled club goers with his drumming prowess. Looking healthy, trim, and fit, and drumming better than ever, Steven thundered through a nonstop 45+ minute set with DJ Rush.

Sporting his ever-present smile that lit up the room along with the flashbulbs of adoring fans, Steven worked the club into a frenzy with his trademark high-octane fills and sonically enormous grooves. As Chip ZNuff commented, Steven is the conductor that shovels coal into the Rock and Roll Choo-Choo Train! After the set, Steven and Chip took time to greet every fan, sign autographs, take photos, and embrace hundreds of beautiful and loving ladies in attendance.

This clip shows the nights finale, with Steven drumming along to Sweet Child OMine. The energy inside the dancehall is incendiary as Steven, live on his drum kit, shows us all what making beats is really about.

Watch for the movie Sugar Boxx in which Chip and Steven have 2 songs featured off their project Johnnie Rotten Jr. Rumor has it that Guns N Roses founders Slash and Steven will be recording together in 2009. We are all hoping these 2 friends reunite for the first time since Appetite For Destruction dropped from the Rock and Roll Heavens. Steven Adler is back and ready to champion on with his rock career, second to none.

  • @Chrissvinnnie Probably a 20" Zildijan rock ride. It can be seen in pictures (and i've read it) from the book Reckless Road if i remember correctly.

  • Cool, Steve's book sent me right here, what a nice guy indeed!

  • reading Stevens book right now....very interesting...GREAT read!!

  • FRANK FERRER FOREVER!

  • @noneyerbidness he has more heart then any other drummer out there.

  • Does anyone know which ride Steven used on Appetite?

  • playing drums along with your 25 y/o hit to a half empty club - doesnt get much sadder.

    let it go, dude...let. it. go.

  • Regardless of who is technically better it's Steven Adlers drumming and Composition you are hearing on all of The Apatite for Destruction songs. He made all these drum parts and these are some of the greatest rock songs ever...

  • The Way he played the drums was is what made the first album.  Matt Sorum made the music sound like studio music. The original band was raw and rock and roll. After Steven was fired, the band sounded too polished.

  • @lucaszambranochicot Matt sorum is a joke.

    How can you say that ? Steven play on Appetite, the best album ever, he plays at Ritz, best live ever !

    He was genious on ROCKET QUEEN. People who say that sorum is better like Steven popcorn adler don't like GNR. Steven in 88 was a god
