History
Early career and mainstream success (1986-1990) Skid Row was formed in Toms River, New Jersey, in 1986 by bassist Rachel Bolan and guitarist Dave "The Snake" Sabo. The pair added guitarist Scotti Hill, drummer Rob Affuso, and lead vocalist Sebastian Bach, who replaced original lead vocalist Matt Fallon, to the line-up by early 1987. The band began playing shows in clubs throughout the eastern United States. Rachel Bolan (born February 9, 1966) was born James Southworth. ...

In what is referred to as "The Bottle Incident" by fans of the band, Bach was hit with a bottle thrown onstage from the crowd at a concert in Springfield, Massachusetts, where Skid Row was opening for Aerosmith on December 27, 1989. Bach threw the bottle back; although he was injured, he continued the show.[1] The incident was captured on video and can be seen on a tour video released by Skid Row called Oh Say Can You Scream in 1990.

Shortly thereafter Bach put on, during a concert, a t-shirt proclaiming the anti-gay slogan "AIDS Kills Fags Dead". The shirt was thrown onstage by a fan, and Bach, without looking at it, put it on. After the concert Bach apologized, stating "My grandmother had recently died of cancer, I guess I would be pissed too if I saw someone wearing a 'Cancer Kills Grandmothers Dead' shirt". In later years Bach apologized seriously for wearing the shirt, and made a substantial donation to an AIDS charity. Anti-gay slogans are themes, catchphrases, and slogans traditionally used to condemn or disparage homosexuality. ...
1990s and hiatus (1991-1998) Skid Row's second album, Slave to the Grind, debuted at Number 1 in the American charts. Slave to the Grind became a big success, and Skid Row once again went out on a worldwide tour which lasted over a year, including a leg supporting Guns N' Roses in 1991 and an appearance at the Castle Donington festival in 1992. Slave to the Grind was a departure for the band; where Skid Row was an album that followed the typical hair band formula, Slave to the Grind had a heavier sound, even verging on thrash with the songs "Mudkicker" and the title track. It was released in two versions, with a "Clean" version replacing the track "Get the Fuck Out" with another, "Beggars Day". The album received strong critical praise, but despite the fact that it disappeared from the charts, received 2X Platinum from RIAA certifications.

After a four year hiatus, Skid Row returned with their third album, Subhuman Race, which surprisingly charted in the top 40. Although the album did not achieve the success of Skid Row and Slave to the Grind, it generated a few hits, but at that point, their videos were rarely played on MTV. Subhuman Race was the third full-length album from New Jersey metal band Skid Row. ...

After re-forming, they opened for KISS on their farewell tour, and have also played with other 1980s metal bands such as Poison. They have been on tour every summer.
