ChristmasFnatic Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 With Slash/MKC’s new album, they should tour with GN’R to have a larger exposure! I bet Slash wont mind doing double duty. That or hire Ashba to play for GN’R while Slash/MKC opens for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's not even remotely comparable physically speaking with standing for maybe 4 hours, playing guitar. He'd maybe not be able to run around all the time, but he for sure wouldn't "collapse" or be sent to the ER haha.

Ace Nova Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Like others have said, Slash is already playing 3+ hour sets with no breaks....poor guy would have to get medical treatment for his hands after every show if they did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you bring up something so blatantly ridiculous as if anyone within GNR would even consider it? Let's have Slash play AT a GNR show but not WITH GNR. And then have Ashba do fill-in duties ... come on, man. COME ON! As others have already stated, Slash and the Conspirators as a support act for AC/DC makes way more sense and would be awesome.

I think you're underestimating standing on a stage with a guitar around your neck for 5 hours when you're in your mid 50s. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoSoRose Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Ive played 3 hour bar shows here and there WITH a 20 minute break. They are real struggles towards the end. Les pauls are heavy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sosso Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 (edited) They should rather be the opening act for AC/DC. Like Slash's Snakepit back in 2001. Edited July 21, 2018 by Sosso 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing another set of 1hr on top of that while my mind would say yes my body would give way. Now, I also set up and down all the gear Amps and PA... But I don't have to travel every day. It's not a good idea for someone hurtling towards 60. You're underestimating the effort involved. Maybe a few one offs, but not prolonged touring. Zakk Wylde did it with Ozzy but both sets were shorter. Also, I think Slash prefers smaller venues and knows that he gets enough gnr fans that actually want to hear his solo music. And he's playing solo headline gigs where he sometimes has up to 5-8000 paying to see him. He's doing fine on his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
