The first time The Dogs played Hollywood it was at ‘The Club With No Name’. Its was towards the end of a solid month of touring the US so we were as you say a little worse for wear. It had been quite a trip. Starting off in Boston, then up top Canada, then back down to New York and across through Chicago, weaving south and down on to Texas and to LA. To see most of the US is quite a daunting thing, to see it in a month is madness, all the info thrown at us was hard to swallow, brain and stomach wise. Back then I really didn’t know what to make of it all. Ever since I could remember I had loved everything about America, the cars, the films, the music, everything seemed to come from the US and it was always so cool. So imagine my shock when I landed there to see loads and loads of Japanese cars and come across a load of, well what can I say, narrow minded full of themselves arseholes, or in their own words ‘assholes’.

I recall talking to a red headed girl while our support act Mother Love Bone were on. They weren’t really my cup of tea so I was at the bar chatting here n there, next thing I know we are on. The gig was fine and we made our way back out on to the bus and I was asking my guitar roadie Deptford John if he had seen that red head I was talking to before the gig. He went back in the club and found her and bought her back to the bus. Meanwhile there was a bit of talk going on as to the fact that Axl Rose from Guns and Roses had been at the show and somehow got himself thrown out and beaten up which had somehow involved the wing mirror from our bus and his head. I tried to find out what had happened but he had already left. Then Deptford John came out with the fact that Axl had tried to get up on stage for what reason
