Skid Row - Live In London - First Official Live Album
in their storied 35-year career, skid row have never released an official live album - until now.
the absolute highlight of their "the gang's all here" tour was their sold-out show in october at the 02 forum kentish town, london. everyone who saw skid row on that tour – and particularly that show – knew it was something special. and so did the band. “as teens, we dreamt of playing places like the stone pony in asbury park, nj and cbgb in new york city… our dreams became bigger with london, england at the forefront. we fantasized one day to headline a show in the very city where so many of our favorite bands came from. dreams do come true. welcome to the skid row live album 35 years in the making” – snake, rachel, scotti, rob, erik.
the set list is classic skid row with so many emotional and musical highlights for the fans and skid row. this is the record of a beloved band conquering their beloved london on their own terms, where they played to 100,00 people at wembley stadium in 1991 (opening for guns n’ roses). the songs from “the gang’s all here,” the album that won back old fans and won over new fans are just as energetically received as “monkey business,” “slave to the grind,” the eternal “18 and life” and a classic take on the ramones’ “psycho therapy.” this is truly an essential addition to any skid row fan’s collection.
