      He’s amazing. He has a huge personality and that turns many off. And he was pretty hardcore into drugs and alcohol which turned a lot of people off given his impulsive behavior. But I think he’s a genuinely good person, an incredible vocalist and a devoted fan of rock music. I’m a huge fan.

    1996, KISS had the biggest tour of the year. THE BIGGEST EVENT OF 1996. In fact, one of the biggest events of the 90s. Highest grossing tour of 1996. Would have been huge for them to be opening on that tour, exposing themselves to sold out shows and stadiums of 10s of thousands of people each night. Many times solid bands who open for the big boys can help the band become one of the big boys. KISS, Ozzy, Metallica, Van Halen, AC/DC, Scorpions- you give your left nut to open for these bands as it can open you to stardom. I may not like Bach but he was absolutely right on having the band open for KISS

      Although thing is, they never said they were too big to open for Kiss. That was never said by the band period, but that however is what Sebastian says and ONLY Sebastian says. The band (all of them) tell a different story and that story is, they had just gotten off a long tour and were tired and burnt out and wanted to spend some time with their families. Bach accepts a Kiss tour without consulting with them first, like he thought he could make decisons for the whole band by himself? He was the voice of the band singing wise, but he wasn't the voice decision wise, that was a decision the whole band needed to make. They opened for Kiss four years later, they also didn't want to tour with Bach anymore. That was just one of the many nails in his coffin for them.

    I worked at The Marriott's Orlando World Center in the early 90's and I had the pleasure of waiting on Sebastian, his little son, and girlfriend. He was super nice and super cool. In my opinion, Sebastian Bach is Skid Row and a great rocker and singer. I still have the napkin that he signed for me. It was a good night. They played in Lakeland a few nights later at a festival and totally rocked the night away. Loud and proud.

    I have to say after being married to a semi famous drummer who had his share of bands thats been on tour did vidoes on MTV in the 80s and 90s but all band mates have problems with each other. They all have big egos and they all have ideas they think is best so they clash. The biggest thing I noticed its the egos that get in the way. I love my husband married 28 yrs but he had a big ego when it came to music he always wanted things his way and so did the other band mates. Every band has its clashing moments and many cant get over it... musicians are a different breed wild crazy big egos and a lot of fun. I guess all that craziness is what make us love our favorite bands and we hate it when they're no longer together.
    How I miss those days 80s and 90s where great times. Meet my husband in the early 90s crazy ass musician that stold my heart we were crazy in love thru all the craziness. He passed away a few months ago how I miss his crazy ass. A musician that actually stay married and truly loved me.

    Sorry, but the band (besides the drummer) are really up themselves. It started with Bach doing a deal with Kiss, thinking everyone would be really happy (he should have consulted first, but the band thought they were too important to play with the legends that are Kiss. Big as Skid Row were, they are full of themselves for thinking this). Bach was understandably pissed, as was the band, and Bach shouldn't have left a rude message. But it was just a fight. That's all, and it happens to everyone. And they band says they don't care about the fans, it's about them being happy. That's really disrespectful to us fans. We made them what they are, and when they fired Bach, they've pretty much dropped off the map. They should at least get together to do re masters of those first 3 albums, but the band just won't. And when touring, they don't even have to talk to each other or hang out. Many bands do this because they don't get on. Again, the band doesn't care and won't do it. Bach has come out on a few occasions and stated he would work with them again. The band members need to get their act together and stop being selfish.... and its not like they won't make a stack of cash. Anyway, rant over. Sorry for that, but as a big fan, I feel disrespected and sort of cheated. What do you all think?

      He didn't say he didn't care about the fans, he said he didn't want to play with Bach for the good of his mental health. It's easy to say that they don't have to talk to each other to tour, I say it's impossible, especially at the level they would do it, which would be theater level. I saw them at their peak, on the slave to the grind tour, and they were playing 4000 seats arenas. So even if Bach come back, that won't put them back in 10,000 seats arena. No, if they don't want to play with him, that's their choice, big deal, there's bunch of other bands out there to listen too. It's hard to play in a band with someone you don't get along with, unless you are super huge, and make shit load of cash, which won't be their case. It's not worth it for them, and I get it.

    Anyone who has been around Bach for more than 2 minutes will totally understand why Skid Row feels the way they do about him.

      You are just wrong. The other guys should bow down and be lucky. Other than Sebastian. I could hire anyone to play guitar and drums you can't hire a singer like Sebastian.

    The bad part about rock ‘n’ roll stars is that when you come across a Tom Brady Michael Jordon or Joe Montana (Sebastian, Bach,
    Rob Halford or Steve Perry..the rest of the team can’t just vote him out because they don’t like him for some reason. Because without them men, they’re just like every other band or team out there, and they need those men to reach the levels. They would never be able to without them.

    If he's half as irritating in real life as he was on the Trailer Park Boys, I'm surprised they didn't drive off while he was taking a piss on the side of a highway in the middle of nowhere.

    It sounds ridiculous to say, but as the vocalist in a STP tribute, I’ve run into the same problems. If you want the best musicians, they expect to be paid to rehearse and a minimum for shows as if they are “session” guys. People: this is why most unsigned bands suck that you see locally or in clubs. It’s economics.

    They played off of Sebastian’s voice so well. They matched his passion, which is hard to do. Those guys are such amazing musicians and song writers, and made such great music together, but without his presence, something is definitely missing. They won’t ever be able to recreate their magic with anyone else. It was such a special partnership. It’s a shame ego got in the way.
