Sebastian Bach does a lot of Cameo clips. Those are video messages that people pay for as gifts to others. Anyway, Bach seemingly did a Cameo to... himself yesterday for his birthday. It included a slap, an "announcement" that he is not in Skid Row and more. I have to say, I was amused. Click the video inside the tweet to see the slap!
Skid Row will release a new album this year and a new song will probably come out next month. That news is from guitarist Snake Sabo in a recent interview. The news that we are finally getting some new Skid Row tunes made me think back to some of the best live performances by Skid Row. That's our Sunday's Best for this week.
When Skid Row played Wembley Stadium in 1991, it was near magic. A huge crowd and then-vocalist Sebastian Bach was at his prime. "I Remember You" is still just about the best power ballad from the era... at least, in my opinion.
"Youth Gone Wild" at the Moscow Peace Festival, 1989. Bach himself commented on performing at this show when Russia attacked Ukraine overnight Thursday.

"Monkey Business" at Rocklahoma 2009, featuring then-vocalist Johnny Solinger (RIP). I remember this set really well - I was down front with Kari for it and it was about 100 degrees! I liked this song in particular because of the guitar solos.
Holy hell! I saw Gallogs comment and I had to look up the SNL performance. It is killer. I honestly don't remember seeing it before. I'm sure I probably have, but 1991 was a long time ago. This performance of "Monkey Business" is just straight, heavy rock. Amazing.
This was a lot of fun! Sebastian Bach appeared on CNN's New Day yesterday to talk about his COVID-19 diagnosis and to advocate for the vaccine. I like how the interview began with a classic Skid Row clip.
"Don't Florida my Fauci!" says Skid Row ex-singer (also of Gilmore Girls fame) Sebastian Bach. He contracted covid but credits the vaccine for his mild case.
"Get the vaccine," Bach says. "Like, you don't want polio, right, so you get the vaccine for that. You don't want covid." pic.twitter.com/ugsdwZU5Hk
