Summary

The American rock band Skid Row didn’t invent the name — an Irish band with the same name rocked it decades earlier, and their guitarist Brendan Shiels is determined to set the record straight. He’s debunked rumors that his band sold the name for $35,000, and even shared how Jon Bon Jovi allegedly asked about using it without ever contacting him. With ties to legends like Phil Lynott and Gary Moore, Shiels insists his group owned the name and deserves credit — and respect — for it.
