Slash concert chronology

The Slash 2010–11 World Tour was the first concert tour by Velvet Revolver and ex-Guns N' Roses lead guitarist Slash as a solo artist, taking place between 2010–2011, in support of his first self-titled solo album. Myles Kennedy of Alter Bridge took the lead singer's position on the tour, while several other guests from the album, such as Andrew Stockdale, Alice Cooper and Lemmy Kilmister joined Slash on different dates, to sing the song they recorded for this albums as well as other classics.

Slash announced that he would not be playing only his solo material on the tour. The setlist during the tour also included songs from Guns N' Roses, Velvet Revolver, Slash's Snakepit, and Alter Bridge.

The tour began with a European leg of mostly festival appearances from May 30, 2010, although Slash played a series of North American warm-up dates, including a secret show at the Roxy Theatre on April 10, 2010, and Rock on the Range. The European leg was followed by a leg of Asia and Oceania, featuring dates in Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Singapore, and finally a full headlining North American Leg in the fall of 2010, which included also some dates which were in support of Billy Idol. The North American leg of the tour was dubbed as the "We're All Gonna Die U.S. Tour".

Following the release of Alter Bridge's third album AB III in October 2010, frontman Kennedy was committed to tour with the band in support of the album, until December 2010. Slash's tour with Kennedy resumed in January 2011 with a North American arena tour, in support of Ozzy Osbourne, followed by additional legs in Oceania, Asia and Latin America.

The tour concluded in July 2011 with a final European leg, composed mostly of headlining UK dates, as well as a few festival appearances in such festivals as T in the Park and Oxegen.^[1]
