5. Tracii Guns slammed awesome riffs in both Guns N' Roses and L.A. Guns. In fact, it's his last name in both of the band's names (Guns N' Roses and L.A. Guns).

13. White-trash Axl Rose (GN'R) started throwing tantrums during shows after the fall of hair metal. It soon escalated into him not showing for shows, and then his fans started rioting after concerts he didn't come to.
 
14. Poison's Brett Michels stole Kix's Steve Whiteman's stage moves, causing Kix to be in Poison's shadow throughout the band's career. From windowsmedia.com:Then a funny thing happened on the way to album number three. As the band got ready for a brief West Coast jaunt, the boys kept hearing some fishy stuff about another young, good looking frontman by the name of Brett Michaels. The big hoopla around town was that the young upstart was said to have stolen singer Steve Whiteman's stage act. Rumor became fact and here is why: prior to Poison relocating to Los Angeles, the band had often come out to see Kix perform live. Now local heroes in their own right, it was clear that Michaels had more than borrowed a few stage moves from the charismatic Kix singer. Sadly, when Kix got the opportunity to open for Poison at L.A.'s Country Club, their worse fears materialized as they stood in stunned silence watching a younger, better looking, musically challenged Poison from the side of the stage. The band had not only stolen Whiteman's stage moves, they'd just about stolen their entire stage act from underneath them.
 
15. Tommy Thayer took the shoes of space-aged lead guitarist Ace Frehley of KISS. Some think Gene Simmons may have pushed Ace out of the band to make room for his long-time Black 'N Blue friend.
