My
husband and a few friends had some secrets for the past few weeks
about planning my birthday and I was shocked to be driving passed the
Bowery Ballroom that I haven't been too in a few years. It was great
to see it still up and running. Driving around Manhattan in this
horrible weather of nasty storm slush trying to find parking we
finally found a parking lot instead. I didn't realize what were doing
and I should have worn better boots instead of dress shoes and my
friends trying to tell me to put plastic bags on over my shoes, I'll
take my chances instead of looking like a wacko. I'm sure I looked
foolish with red heals walking in this crap anyways.
The
Bowery is packed for the Guns n’ Hoses and Girls Girls Girls
concert. Guns n’ Hoses decked out in bandannas and top hats looking
like real rock stars and glad they didn't make everyone wait two
hours for their set as per Guns N Roses would do many years ago. They
did one hell of a job with Appetite for Destruction. Erin Marsz - Axl
Hose, has a powerful voice of her own and even though she didn't
reach Alexs full high pinches she stood on her own two feet. “Mr.
Brownstone” and “Think About You” seemed to win the crowd
over.
Girls
Girls Girls is a Motley Crue cover band that have been around for
years with Vixen Neil on Lead Vocals, Lucky Sixx on Bass Guitar,
Mercedes Mars on Lead Guitar and Tawny Lee on Drums. They played
songs from the entire Too Fast For Love album played straight
through, with another full set of Crue songs added for good measure.
Girls Girls Girls, Front-woman,‘Vixen Neil’ stormed the stage
wearing her her spiky leather outfit, tearing right into “Live
Wire” which is one of my favorite songs of that time. I couldn't
help myself singing a long. She hit every note possible and her
vocals are incredible, “ Too Fast For Love”, “Merry-Go-Round,”
“Starry Eyes,” “ Dr. Feelgood,” “Home Sweet Home” “Shout
at The Devil” “Kickstart My Heart” and many others. They had
the look, the talent, energy and they should open up for Crue with
classic songs they don't perform anymore.
Overall
both cover bands were great. One of the best moments was when both
cover bands to got into a serious role of the MTV fight between Axl
and Vince. It was hilarious and brought back a lot of memories. Great
night out and two bands you don't want to miss out besides having a
metal night out.
