Guitarist 'METAL' MIKE CHLASCIAK: 'Touring Alongside GUNS N' ROSES Is Amazing'

[FunkyMonkey]

Guitarist "Metal" Mike Chlasciak (SEBASTIAN BACH, HALFORD, PAINMUSEUM) has issued the following update:

"Sitting on a bus in Ohio getting ready to write my third installment of my 'Blind In America with Metal Mike' tour diary. This one will be a special issue with all the crazy s**t that went down when we played NYC's Madison Square Garden, my performence with Scott Ian, Bach and Frankie Bello at Scott's Retox Club. I'll also be talking about the insanity of the new act on road, the infamous SUICIDE GIRLS. They are very, very bad girls. Touring alongside GUNS N' ROSES is amazing. Not to be missed!

"Also, following this Friday's Bach/GNR show at the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio, Cleveland's very own Peabody's nightclub will be hosting a meet-and-greet with 'Sebastian Bach and Metal Mike.' Doors open at 10PM and check out www.peabodys.com for more info. Tel (216) 776-9999. After a couple of days off, we'll be sure ready to destroy some brain cells. All my solo and PAINMUSEUM albums will be available for sale at special prices, so if you haven't checked out the new PAINMUSEUM EP 'You Have The Right To Remain Violent' that will be your chance. Let's tear it up and see who's the last one standing!

"Last, but certainly not least, I'm excited that so many people are enjoying the new HALFORD music. The response to our new track 'Forgotten Generation' has been really kick-ass and I cannot wait 'till you hear the remasters of the HALFORD albums that are being reissued by the Metal God. I was plainly blown away by how our third album 'Crucible' sounds now. For me, it is almost for the first time that the album finally had a chance to shine. I'm very proud of the music I made with HALFORD and as many of you see and know, that chapter is not closed."

Probably posted already, but I didn't see it:

Guitarist "Metal" Mike Chlasciak (SEBASTIAN BACH, HALFORD, PAINMUSEUM) has posted the second installment of his tour diary covering Sebastian Bach's trek as the opening act for GUNS N' ROSES. An excerpt follows: "There was a bit of hectic rescheduling and re-re-rescheduling when it came to our performance in Puerto Rico. Just a bunch of logistical nightmare, but we are very happy that we made the trip and went to play for everyone. The night before the show there, myself and (other) Bach guitarist Johnny Chromatic took a night out at a town. In pure rock 'n' roll fashion, first it's a stop at a local liquor store, then a long walk across town to see what trouble finds us. Eventually we took a car to old town San Juan, where all the bars are. This trip came in very handy, as after our performance next day, Baz, Axl, his girlfriend, Axl's beautiful assistant, Vanessa, myself and Johnny ended up at one of these bars shooting pool and drinking a little too much. People kinda freaked out when they saw none other than Axl Rose walk right into a local bar in Puerto Rico, but that's rock 'n' roll. The night for me ended at 6 a.m.; woke up with a hangover. I was met with the news that almost everyone else came back to the hotel at 11:30 a.m. That's 11:30, everyone! Can't tell you what happened between 6 a.m. and 11:30 a.m., as I wasn't there, and the stories that I heard are probably not for these pages, ha."
