4 Rock Star Homes We’d Love To Explore

A video has been making the rounds recently of the abandoned former mansion that Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour used to own.

While Gilmour wasn’t the last owner of the property, this got us thinking about all of the other historical rock star homes that we would want to check out.  Here are just ___ of the properties we’d love to explore.

This, of course, is the apartment where Aerosmith lived in their formative years and wrote many of the songs on their 1973 self-titled debut album.  The band would play a free concert outside the apartment building in 2012 in honor of it being proclaimed by the City of Boston as a historical landmark.

This is the address to the iconic Paisley Park Estate where Prince lived and recorded a bulk of his catalog.  Since his untimely passing, Paisley Park is now open for tours.

Obey your landlord! Landlord!  If you couldn’t gather by our clever intro, this is where Metallica lived in the 80’s and where they wrote Ride The Lightning and Master of Puppets.  The band returned to the home in April 2016 and recorded the video below.

Despite its seemingly normal facade in the video below, this home was dubbed “Hell House.”  Why?  It’s where Guns N’ Roses lived in their early years when writing Appetite For Destruction.  If those walls could talk, they'd probably say, "Ew!"
