Guns N’ Roses icon Slash is set to grace the stage at The Mission Ballroom in Denver, Colorado, for a special one-night-only performance with his blues band on Wednesday, July 17, 2024. This event is part of his nationwide S.E.R.P.E.N.T. Blues Festival and will be streamed live globally on Veeps, offering fans worldwide a chance to witness this unique blues revival. Veeps All Access subscribers in the U.S. can access the show for free, while fans outside the U.S. can purchase livestream tickets for $14.99 on Veeps.
The Veeps livestream will feature a set by Slash and his blues band, including Johnny Griparic on bass, Teddy ‘ZigZag’ Andreadis on keyboards, Michael Jerome on drums, and Tash Neal on vocals and guitar.
A portion of the proceeds from every ticket sold for Slash’s S.E.R.P.E.N.T. Blues Festival will be donated to several nonprofit organizations through PLUS1.ORG. These organizations include NAMI (the National Alliance on Mental Illness), The Equal Justice Initiative, Know Your Rights Camp, The Greenlining Institute, and War Child. The festival’s mission emphasizes solidarity, engagement, restoration, peace, equality, and tolerance, supporting marginalized communities and mental health initiatives.
Slash’s performance at The Mission Ballroom coincides with the celebration of his sixth solo album, “Orgy of the Damned” (Gibson Records). This blues album features collaborations with notable artists such as Brian Johnson (AC/DC), Chris Stapleton, Iggy Pop, Beth Hart, Gary Clark Jr., Billy F. Gibbons (ZZ Top), Paul Rodgers, Chris Robinson (The Black Crowes), Demi Lovato, Dorothy, and Tash Neal. “Orgy of the Damned” is a vibrant homage to the blues, blending nostalgic elements with fresh interpretations of classic songs and lesser-known gems.
Highlights of the album include “Oh Well” featuring Chris Stapleton, “Killing Floor” with Brian Johnson of AC/DC and Steven Tyler of Aerosmith on harmonica, “Hoochie Coochie Man” with Billy F. Gibbons on vocals and guitar, and “Papa Was A Rolling Stone” with Demi Lovato on vocals. The album emphasizes live, in-the-moment recordings, bringing unrestrained energy to each track.

The show is free for Veeps All Access subscribers in the U.S.; tickets for fans outside the U.S. are on sale for $14.99 on Veeps, with a 3-day rewatch window.
