LOS ANGELES—There are two professions in life most guys secretly long to become: porn star and rock star. Hardcore rockers Gangbang prove it’s possible to be both as they join legendary locals Wildside and Little Caesar for a show at the Key Club this Saturday at 10pm. The show promises “lots of hot and possibly naked girls.”
The members of Gangbang—high-profile adult performers Evan Stone, Barrett Blade, Dale DaBone and Mark Stone—have been hard at work rehearsing for their performance. “We’re so used to having to stay rock hard on set, but with Gangbang we get to actually rock hard on stage! I've been rehearsing with the band every night and the show is coming together really well,” said Evan Stone.
Fellow headliners Wildside have long been denizens of the Sunset Strip and regulars at the Whisky A Go Go. Helmed by vocalist Drew Rosenfeld, creative director for Hustler Video, the band formed in Los Angeles in 1991 and was originally known as Young Gunns. After a name change to Wildside, Capitol Records picked up the band. Andy Johns co-produced the debut album that included singles such as "Hang On Lucy" and "Just Another Night" and also a track co-written by KISS’ Paul Stanley.
From melodic metal to hard rock and grunge/alternative, the band’s sound has evolved over time, throughout the albums Under the Influence (1992), Wildside (1995) and The Wasted Years (2004). Wildside has remained somewhat dormant for the past decade, but after recently playing a sold-out show at the Roxy, by popular demand they have been asked to do another show at the Key Club. Tickets for the show are available for purchase at http://www.evanstone.com or http://www.ticketfly.com/purchase/event/12529. The lineup also includes the bands Little Ceasar (Geffen), Snew, Synn, Octane Mob, Many of Odd Nature, Heavy Popeye, Heavy the World, Test Subject
