La PORTE — What’s hailed by some as the best Guns N’ Roses tribute band in the country, and fronted by a man who sings with a founding member of the original group, will be performing Friday in La Porte.
Son Of A Gun, a five-piece LA-based band, will headline Welcome to the Jungle a Guns N’ Roses Tribute, 7 to 11 p.m. at the La Porte Civic Auditorium, 1001 Ridge St.
