JANUARY 10
TODAY IN 1989 GUNS N’ ROSES RELEASE “PARADISE CITY” AS A SINGLE FROM THEIR DEBUT ALBUM, ‘APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION’. THE SONG WAS A MAJOR FACTOR IN THE ALBUM’S COMMERCIAL SUCCESS, ALONG WITH “WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE” AND “SWEET CHILD O’ MINE”.
IN 1990, BON JOVI PLAY THE FIRST OF SEVEN SOLD-OUT NIGHTS AT THE HAMMERSMITH ODEON IN LONDON ON THEIR NEW JERSEY SYNDICATE TOUR THAT LASTED FROM 1988 UNTIL 1990.
