Here Today... Gone To Hell!

As people who will have visited the official CKY website will know, the band have an "Ask CKY" feature in which they answer fan questions. This recent one caught my eye. Pretty cool to see that CKY still have good feelings towards the band following their 2002 tour together!



Question:
what does cKy think of Guns N Roses' Chinese Democracy ?

That's good that they had something positive to say. Didn't they run their collective mouths about Axl after the 02 tour?

Quite the opposite actually.



Question:
Hi guys, I heard the reason the GnR tour was cancelled was because Axl is going a little (more then usual) insane. Understandable if true, but is it true?

Answer:
Axl was very cool and a nice guy to CKY..we have no problems with him.

Question:
When Metallica toured Australia in January, their support act The Datsuns were not well received probably due to the fact that the fans were so eager to see the guys as they had not played in the city in six years. Being their support act at the Fillmore

Answer:
yeh, actually for us it was great. we were very well received for such a situation, unlike a couple of the 'early in the tour' shows with Guns n Roses. playing with Metallica was a really good time. we were just psyched having Hetfield and Axl both personally choose CKY to open their bands first shows in a long while . they were great experiences for us.~

Yea CKY got a horrible reception at the Pittsburgh show.   One of the guys in the band was trying to fight with someone in the audience.  They were booed off stage.   I thought their music was all right.

I'm glad the CKY guys still like GnR.
It's a cool band ( really like their music because even though it's simple alternative metal, they have their very own style ) and the musicians look like funny guys from what I've seen in the various Bam Margera videos.

Ah. I couldn't remember what cky had to say about them. I know they were horrible to the crowd at the Detroit show but I wasn't sure if they ran their mouths about Axl/Guns N' Roses after the tour or not. Thanks for the clarification.

I had no idea who the fuck CKY was until they opened for GN'R in 2002. I remember liking a few of their songs. Of course they like Better and Chinese Democracy...who doesn't?

Yeah. I can't remember if this was before or after they started insulting the audience and calling us "Shitsburgh". I think they did that before their last song.

those who aren't into music. :smoking:

haha yeah i remember hearing that..they were treated decently when I saw them open at the Garden
