Legendary classic member & drummer of QUIET RIOT, Frankie Banali, wrote on the QUIET RIOT Facebook, on June 5, 2013:

“TODAY I HONOR THE MEMORY OF QUIET RIOT BASSIST KENNY HILLARY ON THE 17TH ANNIVERSARY OF HIS PASSING. KENNY WAS THE BASS PLAYER ON THE FIFTH QUIET RIOT RELEASE “TERRIFIED” AND THE TOUR IN SUPPORT OF THAT 1993 RECORD. KENNY WAS A FANTASTIC BASS PLAYER AND SUCH A WONDERFUL PERSON. MAY HE REST IN PEACE KNOWING THAT HE IS REMEMBERED AND LOVED.”

SINCERELY, FRANKIE BANALI

Led by founding members Rachel Bolan, Snake Sabo and Scotti Hill, along with powerhouse vocalist and 14 year veteran of the band Johnny Solinger and new drummer Rob Hammersmith, SKID ROW will deliver the best from their catalogue of gold and platinum albums and anthemic singles like “Youth Gone Wild”, “Monkey Business”, “I Remember You”, “18 & Life” and many more. They will also showcase tracks from their new mini-album United World Rebellion Chapter 1 which features songs such as “Kings Of Demolition” and “ This Is Killing Me”, tracks which easily stand up along with the band’s classics.

After a run of hugely successful festival dates in Summer 2012, UGLY KID JOE’s Whit, Klaus and Cordell, along with Snot / Sevendust guitarist Sonny Mayo and Zac Morris are back for their first full European tour. In Summer 2013, they will release Stairway To Hell, their first new music since 1996. The album features six brand new songs along with three acoustic versions of songs from their past. Tracks like “Everything About You”, “Cats In The Cradle”, “Neighbor” and “Milkman’s Son” continue to receive airplay around the world, while new singles “Devil’s Paradise” and “I’m Alright” show where the band are headed. UKJ’s Whit promises “it will be RAD!”.

The tour promises a great night of rock that you can sing along to from beginning to end.
