Hollywood Rose - Anything Goes

This is from January 1984 and it was filmed in a storefront that belonged to guitarist Chris Webber’s dad. Axl Rose is lip-syncing to a recording, it is how most promotional videos were filmed. It is also the oldest known footage of Axl Rose and Izzy Stradlin together. There is a 2nd promotional video for this song that was filmed in the backyard of Chris Webber’s parents’ house. Originally formed under the name “AXL“ in 1983 by Chris Weber, Izzy Stradlin, and Axl Rose, they later switched to “Rose“ around Christmas 1983 and added Johnny Kreis on drums and the bassist Rick Holland. Around April 1984, after finding another band with the same name, they switched to “Hollywood Rose“.
