Born in England, but raised in LA, Slash was 15 when he first held the beat-up, one-string guitar his grandmother had discarded in a closet.
As soon as he could string chords and a solo together, Slash wanted to be in a band. He found that band in the form of Guns N Roses, one of the greatest rock 'n roll bands of all time .
Here, die the first time ever, Slash describes how he survived it all: lawsuits, rehab, riots, the women, the drugs, drink and whatever else crossed his path as he rode the most insane rock 'n roll wave of a generation.
Slash is everything the man, the myth, the legend inspires: it's funny, honest, jaw-dropping and in a word... excessive.
