Slash gets jumped by fan during show, but the show goes on!

Tue, 15 Jun 2010

At a show last night in Milan, Italy Slash was jumped on by a crazy fan during his guitar solo, his guitar got broken but do you think that stopped him?

When a crazy fan ran on to the stage chased by security staff he nearly took the guitar legend with him as he tumbled off the stage. Slash who was unharmed continued his solo unphased but his guitar wasn't so lucky.  As his guitar tech ran onstage and took the stricken instrument away the band continued to play before Slash returned with another guitar and carried on as if nothing had happened.  A true professional.

Slash later said on his Facebook, "It was a rowdy crowd, for sure, but amazing. The guy who nailed me didn't take me down but he busted my poor guitar. Ah well... it was a kick-ass rock show." 




Here's a fan video from YouTube of the performance and 'incident'
