L.A Guns have always been known as one of Los Angeles’ best supergroups ever formed. They formed in 1983, put together by Tracii Guns. It almost seems like a rite of passage for some of rock and rolls biggest names to at one point be a member of this band, alumni includes, Axl Rose, Izzy Stradlin, Duff McKagen, Slash. (Basically all of Guns N’ Roses). Even Nikki Sixx has been in this band! This band has also had 14 studio albums, 6 live albums, 5 EPs and 4 singles. They take to this huge stage tonight to perform some of their biggest songs over the years. Opening with “It’s Over Now”, the band walk out on stage, with guitars over their shoulders and egos on their sleeves, taking their places as though it’s the way nature intended. There is some epic music played before hand to roil up the audience. “Kiss My Love Goodbye” is a worthy mid set peak that keeps this audience of all ages extremely excited; “The Ballad of Jayne” is the song that closes the set in a great style.
