ChristmasFnatic Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Aerosmith is ready to let rock rule throughout the summer! The rock legends kick off the North American leg of their Let Rock Rule World Tour, with special guest Slash featuring Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators, tonight in Wantagh, New York. The 20-date trek is mapped out through a September 12 show in the Canadian city of Sydney, Nova Scotia.Aerosmith drummer Joey Kramer tells ABC News Radio that he and his band mates are very excited to have the former Guns N’ Roses guitarist take part in the outing. “We’ve wanted to have Slash come and play with us for a long, long time, since the Guns N’ Roses days,” he declares. “And Slash is one of the few guys out there, in my opinion, who’s what I would call the last of the iconic guitar players, who’s playing really says and means anything.”Back in April, Slash joined Aerosmith to perform a few tunes at a press event announcing the tour, so it’s only natural that fans might expect similar onstage collaborations to take place during the trek. Says Kramer, “One of the things I love about being in this band is that you never know what to expect, and that’s part of the fun. But I’m sure that you’ll see [slash] on stage with us for more than one or two nights.”http://www.classichitsandoldies.com/v2/2014/07/10/aerosmiths-joey-kramer-says-band-is-excited-to-tour-with-slash-the-last-of-the-iconic-guitar-players/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin' Cigarettes Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 That's fairly accurate. The fact that Axl & Slash were so iconic is the reason we are posting on a forum for a band that's just had 1 album of original material released since the 90's.

MEXzilla Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 He is the last one, not the last great one imo but Iconic, yes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunzen Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Too bad neither of the bands on that tour have an Iconic singer. Guitar players are NOT as important, sorry, they just aren't Brian May is awesome but that would not pull me to that show, nor would Slash's sedentary guitar playing.

combos Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 He is the last one, not the last great one imo but Iconic, yes...Definitely the last guitar ICON. Too bad neither of the bands on that tour have an Iconic singer. Guitar players are NOT as important, sorry, they just aren't Brian May is awesome but that would not pull me to that show, nor would Slash's sedentary guitar playing.Guitar players are just as important to the MUSIC though because without great songs? There's nothing to write your vocals to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Val22 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Okay, with guitar legends Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck and Yngwie still playing, I don't think Slash would be the last of the great guitar players.yeah, Slash is good, but there are many guitar players still performing that are better. Mick Mars is one too. The 2 guitar players from Iron Maiden and from Judas Priest and what about AC/DC?Still many iconic guitar players that are still rockin it besides Slash and they are older than him.

trqster Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Both Slash and Axl are unique and their chemistry on stage are those things that come every other genetation - truly rare.Congrats to Slash! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Diet Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) Synester Gates of A7X is an incredible guitar player. I dont even think he's hit his prime.I don't think of that too..He's got great skills, but he is wasting his talent with that soft metal band (i know the money is fucking good, and the A7X guys are cool now, but let's honest) Edited July 13, 2014 by Crash Diet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
