| The original line-up of Guns & Roses |
If you are attending Fashion Week in New York City this year, count on seeing a few Guns & Roses T-shirts floating around town! Front man, Axl Rose, and his band, Guns & Roses, will be playing 6 dates in the US, but their first 3 dates will be taking place in New York during Fashion Week. You can be certain that the fashion celebrity crowd will show up for these historic rockers, even though Axl Rose is the only original member left in the band.
Dates:
2/10 Roseland Ballroom, New York
2/12 Terminal 5, New York
2/15 The Ritz (Webster Hall), New York (changed venue name to former to honor the last time Guns & Roses played the venue in 1988)
2/19 House of Blues, Chicago
2/23 The Fillmore, Silver Spring, MD
2/24 House of Blues, Atlantic City, NJ
I guess you could say Guns & Roses have inspired punk rock fashion. Axl Rose was practically an underwear model, he dated supermodel Stephanie Seymour, and he’s inspired Japanese designer Takahiro Miyashita, of Number (N)ine, to design a full collection based on his on-stage wardrobe.

| That floral trend going on now? It’s made a cameo before kids. Axl is wearing the trend in this picture taken around 1989/1990. |

| Guns & Roses: Ripped jeans, tattoos, big hair….oh yeah, and Rock n Roll. The only thing missing is Slash‘s iconic top hat. |

Take Axl on the Road with you!
Our hope is, one day, that all original band members of Guns & Roses will get back together. Nothing beats the real original thing.
