Faith No More - From Out Of Nowhere

January 1992 When the Guns arrived on January 3 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Faith No More joined the tour. Promoting his hit album, “The Real Thing,” Faith lead singer Mike Patton began taunting Guns from the stage, saying that it would be a miracle if the headliners went on stage before midnight, or even if they did. After the third such insult, Axl and Slash talked to Patton, whose band genuinely liked Guns. (Slash bluntly told Patton to shut up or fail.) After clarifying the relationship, such stupid antics no longer happened. Guns also started having problems with Soundgarden, who were stubborn grunge ideologues and didn’t really want to go on tour with Guns. “They didn't talk to us,” Slash complained. Soundgarden was originally from Seattle's underground and looked at the Guns,how Clash and other London punks looked at Led Zeppelin, like boring old farts.
