“We’re just fans,” stressed Paradise Kitty drummer Rachel Rine when pressed on how the band separates themselves from their on-stage persona. “There’s no difference between me and the guy in the front row, except for I’m the one who’s actually playing the songs. We’re all just fans and we’re here to appreciate the songs together so when we get on-stage we don’t look at it like these people are coming to watch us – these are people that love the same songs we love and we’re all gonna rock out together and have a good time.”
To hear the complete answer listen to the full interview, as well as hear Rachel’s thoughts on how Paradise Kitty manage to not only pay tribute to Guns and Roses but also pay respects through music, what fans can expect from the show, the reasons behind forming an all-female tribute band, why they focus largely on ‘Appetite for Destruction’ in the set list, her first introduction to Guns and Roses and what the original band think of the tribute, where you can maybe catch them on their days off and more.
