Gossip-y bit in the Province, September 18, 1987:

■ And, oh yes; if nothing else, LA’s Guns ’N’ Roses have the distinction of being the first band to play Vancouver whose contract calls for the promoter to supply condoms (multi-colored).

Playing Vancouver for me is awesome. I remember the first time I was back there, playing an arena [with Guns N' Roses]. I'm sure we were opening for somebody, but I really felt like I'd made it. A lot of my old punk rock buddies came to the show.

Richard Duguay, a punk friend of Duff, would meet the rest of the band (sans Axl) in Vancouver:

Well, when I met them the first time - I mean, I met Duff obviously in like '83 or whatever - was in '87 when they were out with The Cult. Because the record had just come out in Canada, I believe. June or July of 1987, so they were not really well known at all. I mean, I knew who they were, Duff had sent me an advance cassette and blah, blah, blah. They were on tour with the Cult and I was on tour in Vancouver and we met up. They came over to where we were staying and hung out. And we played that, my band at that time was the Hellcats. And they came out, not Axl, but everybody else was out. And we all hung out and then ended up at Slash and Duff's hotel room and Slash was pretty drunk. And he kinda got a bit on me and was throwing shit out the window at parked cars and shit. That was my introduction to Slash.
