Re: Slash!!

Picked up the new disc a few days ago. Only 1 spin so far so that kinda tells ya what I think. Only a few songs caught my attention, I was expecting more.....maybe it's a grower?

Hi Murray,

I saw Slash at the Hammersmith Apollo  in June, it was one of the best gigs I've been to. It was the way a rock concert should be, enjoy

I would have loved to have been at that gig, Halestorm were supporting i think and I'm a fan of theirs too. I was in London for Tom Petty then back down a couple of weeks later for Kenny Wayne Shepherd so another trip for Slash would have been too much!

I saw Slash in Edinburgh a couple of years ago, it was a superb gig so I'm looking forward to seeing them again in October. Are you going to any of the gigs in October?

I would love to, but it gets a little expensive. I live in Somerset so added to the ticket cost was train travel to London and a hotel for the night.

I was hoping for  he might have played at Bristol or Bournemouth which are both an hour away from home.

Re: Slash!!

Velvet Revolver's Fall To Pieces came up on my randomized iPod.  Still ... wow!  Slash's melody riff on that song still gives me goosebumps.  I guess the whole song does.  It is one of the tastiest songs ever.  And performed to utter perfection.
