Sebastian Bach 'Can't Wait' To Hit The Road With Guns N' Roses

Former Skid Row frontman Sebastian Bach has issued the following update:

"Well, what can I say. What a long, strange trip it's been.

"As I type this, I just cannot believe that I am announcing to all of you that yes, we will be going on the road with Guns N' fucking Roses in my hometown country of Canada in January and February of 2010!!!!

"Wow. It felt really, really good to type that sentence.

"It's time to sit back and realize, hey, we have been doing this a long time. From Guns N' Roses taking us on tour in North America and Europe in 1991, Australia and New Zealand in 1993, taking us out again in America, Europe, and Canada in 2006, Axl Rose and myself recording 'Sorry' for 'Chinese Democracy' and 'Back In The Saddle', '(Love Is) A Bitchslap' and 'Stuck Inside' for my album 'Angel Down', taking us out again in Australia and New Zealand in 2007....

"Are you noticing a theme here? Loyalty? Friendship? Commitment? Passion? For rock n' roll. For life. For fun. For you, the rock fans who make it all possible. For the love of music, having a good time, and kicking out the motherfucking jams.

"Of course, none of this would be possible without the vision and generosity of one single man: Mr. Axl Rose. A man I am so unbelievably proud, and fortunate, to call my friend. A man whose unwavering voice, lyrics, and vision have been the soundtrack to our lives for more than 20 years now.

"I cannot wait to stand at the side of the stage every night, waiting for my favorite song, 'Street Of Dreams', to come around in the set. I cannot wait for the camaraderie, fun, and sense of purpose the road brings. I cannot wait to scream my fucking guts out into a microphone in the biggest cities, on the biggest stages, that my hometown country has to offer. I can't wait to see all my friends and family at the shows in Canada.

"One thing's for sure: I don't have to wait long!!

"C'ya soon Canada!! It's time to rock again!! I love it."
