Fozzy’s Chris Jericho recently had a conversation with Blabbermouth.com who shared his thoughts on Skid Row and Sebastian Bach.
Here’s what Jericho said:
“Had there not been a complete sea change and shift in musical styles, and had Sebastian and the guys not completely broken up forever, they could have been a Guns N’ Roses level, a Judas Priest level.
”Not an Iron Maiden level — not a Guns N’ Roses either — but they could have been that second tier of main-event-level bands. Because, two reasons — one, dudes like us like the music; heavier guys like Pantera like the music; and here’s the most important thing.
“You know what I’m gonna say. The chicks love the music and they love Sebastian Bach, who, at the time… I used to say, if you could into a laboratory and you were a mad scientist and create the perfect rock star, Sebastian Bach would be the perfect rock star — all cross the board; he checks every box in everything.
“And so I think that’s another reason why Skid Row was able to bridge the gap. It could have even gone farther because the girls really enjoyed the band as well.”
