Slash told Ultimate Cassic Rock that he thought the festival would be important considering what’s “happening in this country on a social level,” noting that he wanted to “bring some solidarity and acceptance and support different groups.”

“I want to really sort of bring people together and make this a celebration of all different kinds of people and all kinds of different ways of thinking,” Slash said. “I just thought [the festival] would be a good vehicle for that.”

Slash, often recognized as one of the greatest guitarists of all time, is best-known as the lead guitarist of Guns N’ Roses, garnering massive recognition throughout the ’80s and ’90s. He has only released one solo album to-date, his 2010 self-titled, but is due to release Orgy of the Damned in May.
