Your origin
Guns N 'Roses is an American "hard rock" band, formed in Los Angeles, California. -

Member name creation and change
The band created its name from the combination of two names of the members of the group.
After a while the bassist "Ole Beich" was replaced by "Duff McKagan", however with the lack of "Tracii Guns" in rehearsals, he was replaced by "Slash". -
Band debut
The stage debut took place at Troubador, in Hollywood, for approximately 150 people, then they went to Seattle, where they had a debut tour, called "Hell Tour", but because the van broke down on the way, they arrived two days later and resulting in the cancellation of their tour of the United States, which caused them to sell the equipment, so that they could return home. -
Appetite for Destruction - disco

G N' R Lies - The band's second album.
