Undoubtedly the quietest and most polite former member of Skid Row.

Has to be the nicest guy ever in a rock band. He was so overshadowed because he was so nice. Sweet sweet guy.

ROB AFFUSO is a treasure. His light shines the brightest.

There is no Skid Row without Rob and Sebastian. Period.

@@hugolafhugolaf agree with everything you said until 2022, new singer ERIK has changed everything, I have always been team bach, and nvr thought they could Do with Sebastian, but honestly ERiK now is better than Sebastian now, inSebastians prime maybe not, but Erik is in middle of his prime. And only getting better, bach can still sing, but like with journey and foreigner, stage presence is better now because he has the youth… gone wild 😎 lol, but seriously , he is the best singer for them, I never thought would care to see them without bach, and would’ve rather seen Bach solo before, but now I would rather see them then bach solo anymore.

@@MiNiMeMiniatureDrumCovers I agree with you, couldn’t care less about them for ages, but the new singer has brought the band back alive. Then again, their whole setlist consists almost completely of the songs from the first two albums, and maybe Sebastian is a lot to handle, but without him, they would never have made it. Saw them 3 times in their prime, and honestly it ALMOST completely him. He made them all millionaires, no question. So in my books those three guys are cowards, especially Rachel. He deserves an rotten egg shower.

This is why SKID ROW WERE so great... " failure is not an option"

After hearing from Bach, Bolan, and 🐍in so many interviews it is nice to hear Rob's perspective on stuff.

Rob was a student in my class in high school and played football on the high school team I helped coach. He was a great student. He was a great person then and still is. He came back to Wallkill High School and visited several times to talk to members of the high school music classes. Hard to believe he is 54.

Rob is under rated because he was phenomenal! Would love too see him get back in Skid Row, but since they’ll never get back together with Bach, it won’t happen. All Bach had to do was keep his mouth shut, which isn’t in his list of abilities lol would be awesome though! Rob, you are awesome man!

Great drummer

If Skid Row ever decides to get back to the classic lineup it's gotta be all five, meaning Baz and Rob. Those shows during the first and second albums were so freaking good, for a time I really don't think there was anyone better.

What a nice fella

Ha!!! He had drum sticks in his back pocket the entire time we were in school. Although he’s a year or two younger than I am. Or should I say a grade or two behind. But yes. We weren’t friends. But we did ride the same bus for years and yes. A very nice guy from what I remember. I was always nervous “like sickly” nervous until I sang the first key. Then it was as if I had an alter ego? Or the business me. I was working.

Rob, Sebastian has had stuff for sale on Ebay. It would be awesome to bid on something that Rob Affuso has touched. Do you have any old cymbals or broken drum heads.

An old shoe, that's funny. As for pre-owned cars, I picture one of them having something like a low mileage third gen Camaro. Perhaps a 1988 IROC with T-tops. If so, I'd bid on it. It makes sense because those were the official cars of the Garden State for a good part of a decade.

Rob was the adult in the band. Snake, Sebastian and Rachel's childish egos collided and everything imploded. I read where Rob had been trying to get the band back together but Sebastian would say something stupid and Rachel would get pissed off and it always fell apart. I wish the rest of the bunch could be more humble like Rob.

What hits has Bach had since he left?

Slave to the grind is a good record it’s not my faveroute by any means but I honestly think subhuman race is the strongest out of the first three records they did it was just bad timing it came out in 95 instead of the year before or even 93 it would have stood a lot more of a chance then it did later on by the mod 90s it was just alternitive and grunge music both of which is featured on sun human race but it didn’t sound as if they were jumping on the band wagon it sounded to me like they would have gone that way regardless of grunge or what was hspening at the time

People want skid row for themselves...to see a show..they don't think about the fact the other guys in the band have to deal w Bach for the next 364 days of the year and 24/7.... He's obviously the problem and as great as he is..ask urself...WHY does every other band or super band pass on him.... Idk either but it's something w his character

Skid Row didn't have an album in 85' they weren't even a band yet. Subhuman came out in 95 and Bach left at the end of 96 and the band officially broke up in 98'.

I always loved his drumming. Never liked his look. It’s just my opinion. I didn’t think he looked right to play for SR.

Got a call from Jon Bon Jovi at the beach in the early 80's? On what phone rob, a pay phone? Lmfao. I love rob but he said skid row played for 80,000 people, when? Slave to the grind first rock album to debut at number one? Vinnie Vincent invasion debut album was first rock album to debut at number one!!! What's up with rob? Quiet riot metal health went to number one not sure if it debuted at number one, don't think so. This is anthony carosella from finyl vinyl records. Subhuman race was released in 1995 not 1997 as rob stated. Too many discrepancies!!! Your solo band was wildly successful? Come on rob!!!
