Massive Guns N’ Roses Tribute Show at The Troc

Through our friend, Victor Fiorillo, we learned about this show at the Troc on October 20

Through our friend (and writer for Philly MagazineVictor Fiorillo), we learned about this show that's happening at The Troc on October 20. On that night, which also happens to be the 30th anniversary of GNR's first show in Philly, several local bands will perform at The Trocadero for a big GNR tribute concert called “Guns N’ Roses Was Here.”

From TimeOut.com:
"The show is produced by Philly journalist and Martha Graham Cracker Cabaret keyboardist Victor Fiorillo, who says he wants to take this opportunity to send up Guns N’ Roses because, well, we love them."


And Victor (you can follow him on Twitter) knows what he's talking about. The guy is a MASSIVE GNR fan, and called their recent show in South Philly "fun".

Here's a snippet from his recent review on PhillyMag.com:
Guns N’ Roses came to the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, kicking off the eighth leg of their Not In This Lifetime Tour, the name of the tour a reference to the unlikeliness of the formerly (?) feuding bandmates ever playing music together again. We headed down to South Philly to check it out. Here, eight quick takeaways.
