Sebastian Bach Joins Guns N' Roses on Tour

On October 20, 2006, Sebastian Bach, former frontman of hair-metal band Skid Row will hit the road with Guns N’ Roses for their “Chinese Democracy” tour. Bach has long been connected with Guns N’ Roses—the vocalist opened a number of their European and U.S. Dates this past summer and Skid Row opened for them on their 1991 “Use Your Illusion” tour.

This has been a busy year for Bach. In September, he played several concerts in Australia and also became only the second rock/metal band ever to perform in China when he played the Beijing Pop Festival. In addition to his international touring, Bach has been working on a new album, “Angel Down,” due out next year, which is his first solo CD since 1999, and keeping busy with his developing television career, which has included appearances on such TV shows as VH1’s “Supergroup,” Fox’s “Celebrity Duets,” CW’s “The Gilmore Girls,” and the Canadian mocumentary series “Trailer Park Boys.” Bach has also appeared several times on Broadway.
