Slash to play Hollywood club shows to mark Guitar Center’s 50th anniversary



Slash will mark music retailer the Guitar Center’s 50th anniversary with a series of three concerts in Hollywood’s most legendary venues this fall.

The guitarist will play shows at The Troubadour (Sep 23), The Roxy (Sep 25) and The Whisky (Sep 26) as he promotes the September 16th release of his third solo album, “World On Fire.”

“I’ve always admired Guitar Center’s commitment to artists,” says Slash. “They’re constantly creating new avenues for musicians to get their music out to fans and inspiring people to pick up an instrument and play. They’ve also been supportive of my career since the very beginning here on the Sunset Strip. I am happy to be a part of their 50th celebration.”

Tickets for all three shows go on sale Friday, August 1st at slashonline.com.

Fans can also visit guitarcenter.com/slash to enter for their chance to win a VIP trip for two to see Slash live at The Roxy and take home an Epiphone Les Paul signed by the legendary guitarist.

For fans unable to make it to Hollywood, Guitar Center will present Slash Live from The Roxy, in a DIRECTV 90-minute concert special set to air on DIRECTV’s Audience Network (channel 239) on November 9th at 8 p.m.

Slash is currently on the road across North America with Aerosmith on the Let Rock Rule tour, which wraps up September 9 in Clarkston, Michigan.
