If it's reported that members of Guns N' Roses, instead of a member of Guns N' Roses are going to be at Rock and Roll Fantasy Camp, hair metal apologists everywhere are going to start saving their nickels. Sure, it's a definite that Axl hasn't suddenly decided to teach, but to say members of the band would indicate that two musicians who were in Guns N' Roses are going to be at Rock and Roll Fantasy Camp. It's a given with Steven Adler's troubles of late that he's not up to it, so the only definite choice for the camp would be Duff McKagan, who will be in attendance. Though he's not the most up front member of the band, he would certainly have some stories to tell after spending thirteen years around the G N' R zoo. Speculation then turns to who else will be there, and hence the problem with saying members of Guns N' Roses. The other "member" is Teddy Andreadis, who is a fine musician, but mostly played some keyboards and percussion on The Spaghetti Incident. It's a given that headliners probably aren't going to be lining up to tutor forty-something novices through a song, but saying Teddy Andreadis was in Guns N' Roses is stretching the truth just a little too much. Better Rock Camp focuses on instructors like Mark Farner and Slim Jim Phantom, or even play up Andreadis' work with Bo Diddley or Bruce Willis. [NME]
