While speaking with Scott Itter of Dr. Music, L.A. Guns guitarist Tracii Guns – who is a founding member Guns N’ Roses, but left shortly after it’s formation – was asked if he would ever consider touring with the Axl Rose fronted band if the opportunity arose.
“I think I might,” he replied. “I think that it might be musically awkward for a minute, because Slash and I would be right back in high school. ‘Well, I’m gonna do this solo.’ ‘No, dude. I wrote that song.’ ‘Yeah. But I’m not here as a rhythm guitarist, bro.’ So it would kind of bring us to that weird ‘we’re at a party jamming’ kind of thing, which we’ve done — 20 years ago, Slash and I jammed a couple times.”
Guns continued: “But I don’t know — I don’t really know what purpose it would serve. If it was kind of like a Guns N’ Roses farewell kind of tour kind of thing… I mean, I’d much prefer to have L.A. Guns open, and then maybe get up and play a song with Guns N’ Roses or something like that. But I’m not known for Guns N’ Roses. I mean, it’s my name. But nobody went to the ‘Appetite For Destruction’ tour and saw me play guitar, so people don’t really equate me with the band that way. But that being said, there’s not a lot of cool rock bands that I would say no to anyway. I mean, I love to play guitar.”
