[edit]

I'm setting a pub-quiz question with this image of Guns N' Roses. Although they've changed line up a fair amount through the years, I'm pretty sure that this particular photo is about the Appetite for Destruction lineup - in order Izzy Stradlin, Axl Rose, Duff McKagan, Saul "Slash" Hudson, and Steven Adler. Am I correct about all of these (I guess I'm not sure about Stradlin in particular)? Thanks! 87.114.75.0 (talk) 20:23, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you're correct on all counts. You are probably correct about the timeline as well; Dizzy Reed joined in 1990, so this shot was likely before that - somewhere between 1987 and 1990. Matt Deres (talk) 00:47, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I will concur with those identifications. Also Matt Sorum replaced Adler at the same time as Reed joined the band, and Gilby Clarke replaced Izzy Stradlin in 1991. The band lineup since the mid-1990s is "Whoever Axl can get to show up that day". --Jayron32 13:43, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Providing the band didn't turn up four or five hours late, when the fans were rioting. Ahhh, those were the days. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 19:57, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I think if I had to get my hair like that, I'd be five hours late for everything too :) Thanks everyone for the confirmations. 87.114.75.0 (talk) 10:17, 25 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
