we have some awesome news! The Guns N’ Roses line-up of Matt Sorum, Gilby
Clarke, Duff “Rose” McKagan and
Slash is heading for South Africa in the form
of an all-star super-group called Kings of Chaos. The rest of the group
comprises Def Leppard’s Joe Elliot and Vivian Campbell, Skid Row’s lead singer
Sebastian Bach and Collective Soul’s Ed Roland. Completing the line-up is Glenn
Hughes from Black Country Communion and Deep Purple. The rockers will play
GrandWest’s Grand Arena in Cape Town on June 8 and the Sun City Superbowl,
North West, on June 15 and 16 courtesy of AMP Events and Sun International. The
idea to perform in South Africa took root when Collective Soul’s Ed Roland came
here to perform in Heineken Symphonic Rock, which features South African
artists such as Ard Matthew and Francois van Coke performing their hits with a
full orchestra. Last year was the first time an international artist
participated in the concerts. “Besides them playing songs like Paradise City
and Welcome to the Jungle, they will also do big anthemic hits such as Def
Leppard’s Animal as well as hits from Collective Soul. They have some fun when
they throw in the odd Billy Idol cover. This is going to be incredible,” said
Andy Mac, director of AMP Events. * Tickets for Cape Town are priced from R375
and for Sun City from R460 and are available at Computicket.
