Dave Carnie had an anecdote in Big Brother about Guns N' Roses. Every time he had people over to his house he would put a record on in his living room. After a little bit he would leave the room for whatever reason and when he returned, somebody had inevitably changed the music to Appetite For Destruction. He wrote that he got tired of constantly being welcomed to the jungle so he started hiding his copy of the LP. On the rock side of things, skateboarding was obsessed with Axl, Slash, and company in the early 2000s to the point of ridiculousness. It was also obsessed with David Bowie. I'm not a huge Bowie fan, but at least he has an expansive and diverse catalog of songs to pick from. We've gotten about as much milage as we're gonna get from Guns N' Roses, as was evidenced by two different G N'R shirts in yesterday's post. Girl possibly achieved maximum saturation by using a song from each artist for the soundtrack to Yeah Right! in 2003.
