Musical Oddity: Axl Rose with...Bugs Bunny?

Every so often I come across a piece of music or a video I want to share  and this one to be shown on the Boomerang Channel for children was reported by one of my two favourite radio stations, Planet Rock:

The track features in an episode of the kid’s TV show ‘New Looney Tunes’, which airs on the Boomerang streaming service.

Featuring an animated Axl Rose, the scene called ‘Armageddon Outta Here, Part Two’ sees the singer ask cartoon legends Bugs Bunny and Porky Pig how to get to a gig venue where he is due to perform with his band Steel Underpants.

However, after receiving directions, disaster ensues when a giant asteroid speeds towards earth threatening to obliterate the entire planet.

Fortunately, Axl has some speakers with him that have the ability to "shake mountains to the ground" and he proceeds to perform ‘Rock The Rock’ with Porky Pig on bass duties and Bugs Bunny supplying the riffs.

The gargantuan sound emanating from the speakers soon blows up the asteroid and saves the world. Watch the clip right here:


Great stuff. I look forward to a new album some time this year guys...guys?
