Bassist Brett McConnell (as seen with Lawn Boy and Philly’s Phunkestra) has put together an all-star lineup of Goodfoot regulars to pay tribute to the infamous rock group, Guns N’ Roses! You can expect two sets of your favorite GN’R tunes, including their 1987 debut album “Appetite For Destruction” in its entirety to commemorate its 25th anniversary.
The 8-piece band (with a 3-piece horn section) will be providing you GN’R classics in a funky, yet tasteful fashion… but you should also be prepared for some hard-hitting Axl Rose-induced rock n’ roll. FUNK N’ ROSES includes musicians from Lawn Boy, Joey Porter Funk Tributes, The Doo Doo Funk All-Stars, Pocket, and more!
80′s rock attire is strongly encouraged!
Funk N’ Roses is:
Aniana Hough – Vocals (Marv Ellis, Ben Darwish and Commotion present:
A Talking Heads Halloween)
Brett McConnell – Bass (Lawn Boy, The Brett McConnell Lovetet)
Joshua Cliburn – Tenor Saxophone (Joey Porter Funk Tributes)
Farnell Newton – Trumpet (The Doo Doo Funk All-Stars,

Jon Ramm-Gramenz – Trombone (Manimalhouse, Pocket)
Kyle Smith - Guitar (The Brett McConnell Lovetet)
Josh Lava – Keyboards (The Brett McConnell Lovetet, numerous other groups)
Mitch Wilson – Drums (Mike Tyson’s “Undisputed Truth,” The Hugs,
Wilson Supergroup)
Lighting Design by Jason Goers!






















G N’ R saved my life. Along with Public Enemy, they helped me through the fear of imminent departure from college.
This band is sure to kill it! I love GNR and am excited to hear it with a funk twist!
Oh I hope the guitarist looks like Slash, I always wanted to scream out this name at a concert….with him actually there this time :)
Would love some free Funkin tickets. Take me down to the Goodfoot city!
The beauty of it is, I could go and have a good time and walk home. So in the interest of public safety, pick me!

Gun N Roses is my all time favorite rock band! It would be awesome to see the Tribute band!!
appetite for destruction was the very first tape I owned and have been listening to Guns N Roses ever since. Would love to see a G&R tribute. Thnx
sweet child o mine!
This sounds like the night train might stop by
Because they said James Brown was dead.
Oooooh, I hope I got in on time. I still have an original shirt with frills cut. I’ll wear it if I can go!!
