He's always playing shows, if not with GNR, with HNB. Hopefully this means he's done with his part of CD, but who knows. Title: Re: W.A.S.P.

The Eddie Trunk show interview must have sparked the Wasp-GnR connection.

Their website: http://www.hookersnblowme.com/ From the site: ...THE STORY: Originally formed as a way to get free drinks in Hollywood, GUNS N- ROSES' keyboardist Dizzy Reed started HOOKERS N- BLOW (aka THE Hollywood Bulldozer) along with Matt Starr (BEAUTIFUL CREATURES) and Alex Grossi (QUIET RIOT). "The response has been overwhelming", says guitarist Alex Grossi , "you forget just how big Guns N Roses are. Not to mention the fact that Dizzy (Reed) has now been a member of G N R for almost 16 years. On our last tour, we would show up to the clubs and there would be a stack of fan mail from all over the world for Dizzy, it's pretty amazing." The band's set list is comprised of many Guns N- Roses songs along with a mix of classic rock standards. The band's energy is infectious. From the first song, it is apparent how much they enjoy playing together and it does not take long for the audience to become as much a part of the show as the 5 guys on stage. Also in from the beginning, (early 2004), Drummer Troy Patrick Farrell (WHITE LION/JANI LANE/GILBY CLARKE) explains, "there's been so many times that we've played a show & the audience is full of people who saw us the night before & drove more than 2 hours to see us again, it's great". The HOOKERS N- BLOW/HOLLYWOOD BULLDOZER play songs from.... Guns N' Roses Aerosmith Cheap Trick Rolling Stones Ted Nugent Blue Oyster Cult Led Zeppelin Creedence Clearwater Revival Humble Pie Elton John The Who David Bowie KISS Rod Stewart Motorhead Loverboy Iggy Pop Twisted Sister Lynyrd Skynyrd Motley Crue ZZ Top AC/DC ...and more!

Bassist To Play With DIZZY REED's HOOKERS 'N' BLOW Post by: VanJay011379 on January 12, 2007, 07:13:46 PM Hey hnb, I got this on the RPM's myspace bulletin. Isn't Dizzy going to be at the Bridgeville, PA show on the 16th?
Quote Dizzy Reed has been called up by Axl for some GnR duties, so taking over vocal duties for this show will be none other than JIZZY PEARL!!!!! You probably know Jizzy from his recent stints fronting RATT. He also fronted the original lineup of Adler's Appetite which means expect heavy doses of GnR's Appetite for Destruction from this version of Hookers N Blow! I don't know about you guys...but I'm really stoked about this show now. Ticket sales have been extremely strong for this show already. If you haven't gotten your tix already you better head out to www.TicketAlternative.com and get them now!!!! $12.50 in advance through Ticket Alternative. $15 day of show! Dave Title: Re: W.A.S.P.
