it was good to see ex- guns n roses crew (now ‘velvet revolver’). slash still has the same ol hat and cigarette and his hair all over the face as he riffs out some rock chords.
scott weiland aptly said that its not just a rock show, but a show for us all to unite and do something for the betterment.
funny thing was, most of the media coverage was on slash rather than scott weiland.. you could literally see photogs rushing to the corner where slash took position :-)
rock on slash !
