Sonic Slam 2022 with Tom Keifer | Faster Pussycat | LA Guns.Guitarist Tracii Guns and original singer Phil Lewis have reunited and are carrying the banner for the '80s Sunset Strip sound. (Kidding.) Although they had the chops and, in my opinion, great songs, LA Guns never hit that next level like so many other bands from that time. When that didn't quite gel, Tracii reformed LA Guns, and Axl Rose of Hollywood Rose faded into obscurity and was never heard from again. ![]() Two years after forming the band, Tracii Guns merged his band with another called Hollywood Rose. The band broke up in 1993, reuniting briefly in 2001, but it didn't work out.įor a time, Downe was back in the club business, opening his own place that would rival the Cathouse, but now he is back on the road playing the Faster Pussycat songs with a new band on the Sonic Slam tour. Why do I remember that a big reason Faster Pussycat ever got played was because singer Taime Downe and Rikki Rachtman of Headbangers Ball were friends? There's no denying "Bathroom Wall" was a fun song. These days, Tom Keifer tours with his own band, playing songs from his 20 solo albums, and all the Cinderella songs you remember from the Regan era. Cinderella recorded two more albums before Keifer suffered vocal paresis, grunge happened and the band lost their record deal. Tom Keifer was the voice of Cinderella on all of their songs, from the breakthrough "Nobody's Fool" from Night Songs to the bluesy "Gypsy Road" and the MTV power ballad "Don't Know What You Got (Til It's Gone)" from Long Cold Winter. ![]() Let's be honest, though, how many of your friends from 1988 could you spend all day every day with? Cinderella: Then & Now Full disclosure: these are not the original lineups of these classic bands.
