Skid Row

Skid Row is an American rock band formed in 1986 in New Jersey by bassist Rachel Bolan and guitarist Dave "Snake" Sabo. They recruited guitarist Scotti Hill and drummer Rob Affuso via newspaper ads. Former lead vocalist Sebastian Bach replaced original singer Matt Fallon after the band spotted the 18 year old singing prodigy singing at a wedding and he was asked to join in early 1987. Bach led the band to great fame in the late 80s and early 90s, though also caused lots of troubles. In an incident known as "The Bottle Incident" a bottle hit Bach who threw the bottle back and jumped into the crowd, forcing a little girl to receive 125 stitches. Though he had a phenomenal singing voice at a concert in England in 1991, he read a letter to a crowd that risked the members of Skid Row going to jail and getting a lifetime ban from the London borough. Skid Row eventually got into a war with Bach that ended with firing him and eventually replacing him with late singer Johnny Solinger. The band eventually replaced him with ZP Theart, who himself was replaced with Erik Gronwall. The band has released 5 albums and is working on a 6th. They have a much lower reputation than they did in their days with Bach. Former drummer Rob Affuso is the only member still on good terms with the original lineup and his departure is 1996 is more than likely a result of Bach's firing, if only part of the reason he left.
