Stacey Blades (born Brian Stacey; November 4, 1968) is a guitarist from Calgary, Alberta, who has played with such bands as Fraidy Katt, Roxx Gang, Mojo Gurus, Supercool, Smack, L.A. Guns, and 100 Proof. He has played on the L.A. Guns studio albums Rips the Covers Off, Tales from the Strip, Covered in Guns, and Hollywood Forever, and the L.A. Guns live album Loud and Dangerous: Live from Hollywood. He reportedly sang lead vocals on the song "Nothing Better To Do", when the band performed it live. He authored a book, Confessions of a Replacement Rockstar in 2009.
During the 2005 American Metal Blast Tour, Stacey was humorously interviewed by rock & roll comic C.C. Banana.
At the end of 2012, Stacey decided to leave L.A. guns to pursue more personal opportunities for performing and songwriting. He is currently working with Sony Music designing and writing guitar loop packages. Stacey was also the last artist to work with the legendary producer Andy Johns before his untimely death in April of 2013.
