Blabbermouth — New SKID ROW vocalist Erik Grönwall spoke to The Rock N’ Roll & Coffee Show about how he has been accepted by the band’s fans since he joined the group earlier this year as the replacement for ZP Theart. He said: “There’s so many different types of fans. I’ve realized that… ‘Cause when we did the show in California, [some] people came up to me after the show, and they were, like, ‘Sebastian [Bach], you’ve still got it.’ [Laughs] Yeah, that happened. Then you have the fans who still think that Sebastian is in the band, and then you have the fans who know the whole story.”

Erik, who made his recording debut with SKID ROW on the just-released new studio album, “The Gang’s All Here”, went on to say that he isn’t bothered by the fact that some fans are still clamoring for a reunion of the band’s classic lineup.

“I understand the fan perspective of wanting the original lineup — I understand that — because I’m a Bon Scott guy myself,” he explained, referencing AC/DC‘s late singer. “But I think that people are really excited about this new album, and I feel like even the people who want the original lineup are actually starting to approve.”

He added: “When I joined this band, I realized that it’s such a privilege to have people so interested in the band, talking about the band, discussing everything. A lot of bands would kill for that, and that’s a privilege. You have all these people talking about SKID ROW and they like that singer or they like that song or they like that era, and that’s just incredible, having people so excited about it or hating it. [Laughs]”
