Hey Japan Fans – On Wednesday, 11/11 (that's today to you), you will get the first taste of Slash’s upcoming solo album with the release of "Sahara." The new single is a collaboration with iconic B’z front man, Koshi Inaba. Included with the single is a b-side version of "Paradise City," featuring Fergie and Cypress Hill's B Real and Syn Dog. Look for it at your favorite music store.
For all you other fans outside of Japan – Keep your eyes out for those imports!

Hey, what's up? 
We're a little more than 2 weeks away from the LAYN "Slash & friends" fundraiser, Nov 22nd at the Avalon Theater in Hollywood Ca. George Lopez is hosting an indulgent night of Rock & Roll with special guests, Ozzy Osbourne, Billy Idol, Perry Farrell, Chester Bennington, Andrew Stockdale, Franky Perez, Dave Navarro, Travis Barker, Chris Chaney & myself. The set is going to be killer & the whole event is supporting an awesome cause. Remaining tickets are available at: <
http://laynrocks.com>  
 Its going to be one for the books for sure.

 The tracking for my record is completely done & we only have 3 songs left to mix. I'm extremely happy about how the whole thing turned out, I think you're going to dig it. Also, there is a single dropping in Japan this month that I did recorded with Koshi Inaba from the B'z. The song is called "Sahara" & is only available for sale in Japan & won't be on the domestic release of the cd. There is a surprise B-Side you gotta check out.

 There you have it folks, hope to see you November 22nd at the Avalon.

In error, Chris Cornell was announced as a performer at the LAYN charity show in Los Angeles on November 22nd. Chris was asked to participate but could not confirm due to an existing schedule conflict. Regardless, Chris hopes all of his fans will go and support Slash, Ozzy and the other guests for this event that will help get homeless youth off the streets of LA.

Greetings all, how's everybody doing?

 1st, I'd like to say thank you for your interest & support for VR & everything else I've got going on, you're fucking awesome, cheers!

 Next, there are a lot of posts about the upcoming Vegas event, but the actual line-up for the Mirage gig Oct 2nd is: Tommy Clufetos on drums, Johnny Griparic on bass,  Ted "Zig Zag" Andreadis on keys, John 5 on guitar, myself on guitar & Franky Perez, vocals. That, is basically the house band, my special guests that night are, more or less in this order: Rocco Deluca, Nicole Scherzinger, Courtney Love, Rick Nielson, Robin Zander & Joe Perry. Also, Matt Sorum is jamming a couple songs + there will be some other surprises. I also just got confirmation that the Joe Perry Project is playing as well, it promises to be a bitchin' evening. tickets are available through Mirage Entertainment on the Mirage website.

  And, there is another gig I'm putting together for November 22nd for LA Youth Network or "LAYN" at the Henry Fonda Theater, I'll have line-up details for that event, which is a fund raiser & an awesome cause, soon enough.

 Meanwhile, the solo record is in its mixing stage & the mixes to this point sound great. We have recorded 18 songs with one more I want to track in the next couple weeks. Regardless, the record is still slated for a Feb/March release.

 Btw, a friend of mine hipped me to a wikkipedia site that focuses on the development of this album, the details of which are actually pretty accurate, although almost all of the alleged song titles are incorrect. Also, Jason Bonham does not appear on this album. Other than that its pretty right on.

 That's all I've got for now, see you in Vegas,

   Yours,

Les Paul was a shining example of how full one's life can be. He accomplished so much, & was so vibrant & full of positive energy. I'm honored & humbled to have known & played with him over the years, he was an exceptionally brilliant man, musician, inventor, mentor & friend.
