Tommy Stinson Says Guns N' Roses Is A Collaboration Band

08/15/2011
. (RockAAA) Tommy Stinson admits he never expected his time on bass duties with Guns N' Roses to last 12-years and he has insisted his stint with the band has been 'nothing but a good gig.'

Stinson, who burst onto the rock scene with The Replacements 20-years ago, is also a member of Soul Asylum which he says is a 'labor of love,' "Soul Asylum, I've known those guys since we all went to school together, Dave (Pirner (Soul Asylum singer) and I anyway," Stinson tells Philly.com. "They're good guys and we have a good time playing together. That's more a labor of love."

"Guns is a different thing in that it's a bunch of guys that come from all walks of life put together in this musical soup, and it has a whole different thing going on. It's more of a collaborative band thing -- when we write, anyway.," Stinson says. "Guns has been nothing but a good gig for me for 12-years now. I started it with no expectations. I didn't think it would last 12-years, but here I am."
