Setlist:
British-American musician Slash gained international recognition as the lead guitarist for Guns N’ Roses starting in the late 1980s. He is regarded as one of the best guitarists in history and has won praise from critics. Slash was born in Hampstead, London, and grew up in Blurton, Stoke-on-Trent. At the age of six, he and his father relocated to Los Angeles. Actor Seymour Cassel gave him the moniker Slash when he was younger, and both of his parents worked in the entertainment business. He joined the glam metal group Hollywood Rose in 1983. In 1985, he replaced founding member Tracii Guns in Guns N’ Roses, a band made up of former members of Hollywood Rose and L.A. Guns.
Slash founded the supergroup Slash’s Snakepit in 1994 as tensions inside Guns N’ Roses were escalating, and he left the band in 1996 due to mounting hostilities with Axl Rose. He and singer Scott Weiland co-founded the supergroup Velvet Revolver in 2002, which brought Slash back into the limelight throughout the mid- to late 2000s. In addition to “Apocalyptic Love” (2012), “World on Fire” (2014), “Living the Dream” (2018), and “4” (2022) with Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators, Slash has recorded two solo albums, “Slash” (2010) and “Orgy of the Damned” (2024), which feature a number of guest singers. In 2016, he rejoined Guns N’ Roses.
