L.A. GUNS Replace New Guitarist Exactly one month ago, in December 2012,
L.A. GUNS announced that
guitarist
Frankie Wilsey (SEA HAGS, ARCADE) had been chosen to replace
Stacey Blades who quit the band "due to extenuating circumstances and
musical differences."
Now LAG bassist
Scotty Griffin reveals that
"Michael Grant from
ENDEVERAFTER will be our guitarist starting this weekend in Chicago and
Detroit. Is he our permanent guitarist? What happened to the last
guitarist? Who's solo album is better, Paul's or Ace's? I can't say...
I'm just the bass player. But you heard it here first. Stay tuned."
Griffin has since added: "Set up and ready to rock Illinois tonight!
First show of the year, and first show with our newest member, Michael
Grant of EndeverafteR on lead guitar!"
