a small history of london:

london was formed in 1978 by lizzie grey, nikki sixx and dane rage, who met when they were all in sister with blackie lawless. they didn't get along with blackie, though, and quit to form their own band. their first singer was michael white, who was replaced by henri valentine in 1979. that also didn't last, and henri valentine was soon replaced by nigel benjamin (who had been in mott the hoople.)

in 1980, nikki punched nigel in the face onstage and broke his nose, and that was the end of that incarnation of london. nikki left to form mötley crüe--and we know how that story goes. fun fact! lizzie grey actually co-wrote public enemy #1, one of the tracks on mötley's first album, too fast for love. lizzie replaced nikki with blackie lawless, but blackie threw a chair at someone during a gig so he got fired. lizzie then laid london to rest and joined a new band, st. valentine.

in 1983, st. valentine broke up. in 1984, lizzie resurrected london. this lineup was lizzie, nigel itson (who was in st. valentine), john ward, and donny cameron.

in 1984, after singer nadir d'priest and bassist brian west joined, london finally got a record deal.

by 1985, it was lizzie, nadir, brian, drummer bobby marks. bobby quit to join keel, and they recruited fred coury (who would go on to play in cinderella. izzy quit to join hollywood rose. steven adler was also in the band in '85, but he left to join guns n' roses.

the debut, non-stop rock, was came out on september 28th, 1985. fred quit right after the album was released and derek shea replaced him. guitarist frankie jones also joined.

london's sophomore album, don't cry wolf, came out on august 2nd, 1986.

in 1988, london was in the decline of western civilization part ii: the metal years. a lot of people thought they looked stupid and made fools of themselves but i find their segment to be absolutely perfect.

lizzie grey quit in 1988 but nadir and brian carried london on. they got amos sanfilippo and sean lewis. they released a third and final album, playa del rock, in 1990. the band broke up in 1991.

WHEW that was a lot and i MAY have some things slightly mixed up but that's the best i got skdhfksjdks

u know, when u said that u would get me into London, I expected some song recommandations, maybe the members names and what role they have in the band...idk

BUT NOT THE WHOLE BAND'S HISTORY SKJSKJDLJLDJLD

#every time u mentioned an ex mamber of london that went and formed/joined a band that became more popular(guns n roses #cinderella etc) it feelt like u slapped me in the face multiple times idk how to explain skkjklasjdlaskdjs #asks

W.A.S.P. fans, does this song sound familiar? This is "For Whom The Bell Tolls", also recorded by Blackie Lawless and released it as a b-side to "Mean Man"!

Oooh can you please share more about Nadir d'Priest roadsigning Axl?

there was this whole feud thing in the 80s between them, because something happened with lizzy grey and tracii guns and some out of tune guitars. the details have been lost to time (i do not remember where i learned about this but i think it might have been in the book nöthin but a good time.) anyways, a feud started between axl and nadir. supposedly nadir carried a gun at the time and was pretty universally feared/respected—he was a tough kid from mexico who'd been in and out of jail for years. they always said they were gonna fight but nothing ever happened until it all came to a head and nadir knocked axl out with a road sign.

So Nadir D'Priest (vocalist for the band London) liked one of my pictures of myself on Facebook, which is totally fucking awesome! And actually thanked me for wishing him a happy birthday! :) I love when musicians actually take time for their fans.

By the way, if you've never heard of London, I suggest you check them out! Nikki Sixx, Blackie Lawless and Fred Coury have all played for them!

D'Priest • Ride You Through the Night ♪♫ Playa Del Rock 1990

One of the few bands I ever got to meet after a show :) Everybody was really nice, so hearing them always makes me smile. Plus, the logo at the beginning of the vid reminds me that I really miss Headbangers Ball.
