December 10, 2012, 11 years ago
Canadian guitarist Stacey Blades has left L.A. GUNS. His official statement reads:
"This isn’t an easy announcement but as of this month I will no longer be playing guitar for L.A. Guns. I dearly wish Phil, Scotty and Steve much continued success. It’s been a crazy ten year ride filled with some amazing tours, albums and memories to last a lifetime! Due to extenuating circumstances and musical differences I have decided not to continue with the band. L.A. Guns was a dream come true but life is full of new beginnings and journeys’. I will be taking some time off and have some different things lined up that I will share with you in the near future. I would like to first and foremost thank the fans for allowing me into your hearts! You guys Rule!! Hope to see you all soon!"
Blades appeared on four LAG releases:
Rips The Covers Off (2004)
Tales Trom The Strip (2005)
Loud And Dangerous: Live From Hollywood (2006)
Hollywood Forever (2012)
He also authored a book, Snake Eyes - Confessions Of A Replacement Rockstar, in 2009.
