Rock has never been so human, in the best sense of the word. After the terrible disappearance of Dan McCafferty, founder and lead voice of Nazareth, Axl Rose has decided to pay tribute to the legendary colleague.
Thanking the fans who attended the Guns N’ Roses show in Perth, and citing the success of the Asian Tour, Axl Rose states:
Haven’t addressed this… been a tough pill to swallow… Very, very sad to learn of the passing of Dan McCafferty of Nazareth. (…) Was in a bit of a surreal headspace on stage for several songs. Went on a Nazareth binge for a few days. Thanks Dan and all of Nazareth for all the music over the years. Their music and Dan’s voice will always have a special place in my heart.
