You probably heard Izzy, Duff, Steven, Slash, and even Gilby, showed up at L.A.’s Key Club Saturday night to celebrate Appetite For Destruction‘s 20th anniversary. Slash left before the performance started, but the current Rolling Stone cover boys (save Axl) jammed on a few Appetite tunes and presumably made jokes at absent Rose’s expense.

Or at least that’s what it sounds like based on some better-late-than-never footage from YouTuber RHCPBassMstr (um, Flea?). Poke around to see what you find; they’re shitty quality, but all you’ll need is just a little patience. Here are a few tips: Slash’s musculature gets plenty of play and “don’t pull an Axl“‘s bellowed once or twice. Got devil horns?

Appetite-era Guns drummer Steven Adler posted plenty of grainy action shots at his MySpace.

    i imagine in some alternate universe guns and roses are still relevant. “Rock mastermind Slash took to the stage and wowed fans with his no. 1 smash “All Night” from 1995′s Side of the Road album. You know, the one that re-established the Guns star as a post-grunge rock messiah…”

  5. My sentiments exactly, Stef

    I’ll admit it, I like a lot of Guns ‘n Roses, but enough already with the tributes. The band split up 15 years ago. Can Rolling Stone please devote their cover to an artist that released something relevant this millennium?

    First, can an artist please release something relevant this millennium?

  8. Yes, Appetite for Destruction 1, everything released since 2000 0.

    Oh wait. Nope.

    “What’s amazing to me is that all those guys are still alive after 20 years!”

    If we have learned any lessons from Aerosmith is that being alive after a lot of coke and groupie banging is no reason to let them get close to a recording studio (or musical intruments for that matter).

    heh, I don’t know what was up with any of those who were interviewed recently about the most over-rated albums ever. somehow you get people saying Nevermind, Stone Roses, White Light/WHite Heat, etc. how can anyone overlook Appetite for Destruction, which has simply got to be the most over-rated album ever, of any genre. 2 excellent songs, 2 OK songs, the rest absolute schlock. seriously, schlock. i can understand criticizing the influence that Nevermind had on subsequent musicians, but there is no filler on that album, except maybe ‘Lithium’.

    The indie rock fans don’t like to mingle with working class hard rock folks. Typical.

  14. Well, in all fairness, they smell.

    The BO at a GnR reunion gig would still be just as bad at an Arcade Fire show…know it!

  16. Most indie folk have OCD, and wash incessantly. I think you’re thinking of RatDog or DMB.

    Not sure what you’re talkin’ bout since I was at a Viva Voce show last week…uhmm…there was something reekin’ fierce at the crowd over at Neumo’s. It was just as bad as the crowd stench at an Opeth show I went to with the heshers on weed…BO is still BO, I maintain.

    Appetite for destruction still sell 9000 copies per week… let them play they are great, and you are fucking ball lickers with your head far up your ass… that was good
