ADLER'S APPETITE: New Lineup Revealed

December 4, 2008

Sleaze Roxx recently conducted an interview with guitarist Alex Grossi (HOOKERS 'N' BLOW, ex-QUIET RIOT) about his involvement with ADLER'S APPETITE, the band led by former GUNS N' ROSES drummer Steven Adler. An excerpt from the chat follows below.

Sleaze Roxx: You just landed a gig with Steven Adler in ADLER'S APPETITE. How did that come about?

Grossi: I had played with Steven on the 2004 Bad Boys of Metal tour and also did some one-offs with him later that year. We have been friends since, and I guess when it came time for him to put a line-up together, my name came up, a phone call was made and here we are!

Sleaze Roxx: Who else is in the band these days?

Grossi: The lineup is a really solid-one that I have a great feeling about. I will be sharing guitar duties with longtime ADLER alumni Michael Thomas (FASTER PUSSYCAT),we have Chip Z'nuff (ENUFF Z'NUFF) on bass, Sheldon Tarsha on lead vocals and, of course, Steven.

Sleaze Roxx: I take it Steven is clean these days, do you worry that he might fall off the wagon when you hit the road?

Grossi: There is always going to be that concern with anyone with a history of addiction, but he has surrounded himself with some really good people this time and has a very positive attitude and is happiest when behind a kit, I think he will be just fine.

According to the web site of the Key Club in Hollywood, California, ADLER'S APPETITE will perform at the venue on January 17, 2009.
