They were obviously having a great time together, and sounded like they had just picked up where they left off. The Hanoi Rocks reunion sounded so full of fire, and they looked amazing. There was a lot of singing - 37 songs - and my voice held up good.” The crowd had such a warm feeling of love and appreciation, and everybody had a great time. And the setlist - altogether there was 37 songs, including DEMOLITION and the original HANOI lineup… The original HANOI lineup played nine songs, actually, in the end… The emotion and the feeling was amazing. It was a big undertaking, and I worked on it quite a while. To cap off the three-hour marathon, the original lineup of Hanoi Rocks featuring Michael Monroe, Andy McCoy, Sami Yaffa, Nasty Suicide, and original drummer Gyp Casino reunited for the first time in 40 years and delivered a monumental nine-song set that clocked in at nearly 50 minutes. The almost three-hour-long concert allowed fans to hear many Monroe classics throughout the evening. In addition to the original HANOI ROCKS lineup and DEMOLITION 23, several top musicians and artists who collaborated with Monroe over the years took the stage. The Michael Monroe 60th Birthday Concert took place on September 23 at the Helsinki Ice Hall (Helsingin Jäähalli) in Finland and featured sets by his musical ventures.Īt the 60th birthday show, Monroe was accompanied mainly by his longtime band, Sami Yaffa, Karl Rockfist, Rich Jones, and Steve Conte. In 2022, Michael Monroe turned 60 and decided to throw himself and his longtime fans a party. After the death of their drummer Nicholas “Razzle” Dingley in a tragic car accident at the hands of a drunken and unapologetic Vince Neil (Motley Crue vocalist), Hanoi Rocks decided to pack it in, feeling that it just wouldn’t be the same without their old friend. Hanoi Rocks made a long living mark on the face of hard rock with their mix of punk rock, glam rock, and ’50s-infused Rock n’ Roll. Guns N’ Roses was pretty much the American version of Hanoi Rocks but not nearly as good, but I will digress. In their short five years as a band (from 1979 – 1984), Hanoi Rocks had a sound that would influence a whole generation of hard rock bands, including Guns N’ Roses. The music these people made (and continue to make) are significant parts of my life’s soundtrack, but Hanoi Rocks have been a mainstay in my heart and soul as a music lover. I have also been a huge of the solo output of vocalist Michael Monroe, guitarist Andy McCoy, and bassist Sami Yaffa. This relationship is not possible based on lifespan dates.Since first hearing them in 1985, I have been a massive fan of Hanoi Rocks. You have chosen this person to be their own family member.
