Guests to join Santana on opening night in Vegas

Carlos Santana kicks off his annual residency tomorrow at The Joint at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, and he’ll be joined by some special guests.

India.Arie, Chris Daughtry and Gavin Rossdale will join Carlos for a special performance of “Supernatural Santana: A Trip Through the Hits” – billed as the first and only rock ‘n roll resident show in Vegas.

The three guests are featured on Santana’s classic rock covers set, “Guitar Heaven: The Greatest Guitar Classics Of All Time,” in stores September 21. (For more details, check here and here).

India.Arie joins Carlos on the album's first single "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," Chris Daughtry on Def Leppard’s “Photograph,” and Gavin Rossdale on the T. Rex classic "Bang A Gong (Get It On)."

Wonder if any other guests will pop up – on opening night and/or beyond? I’m looking your way, Eddie Van Halen…(the new cd includes a cover of Van Halen’s “Dance The Night Away,” with Train’s Pat Monahan on vocals; the song has been in Santana’s setlist this summer).
