Motorcycle rally about to get a dose of Slash

Rock 'n' roll?s most famous top hat and long hair will bring his musical act to the Sturgis motorcycle rally, and that makes Slash very happy.

?This kind of band and that kind of event is just tailor made for each other,? Slash said in a recent phone interview.

Slash rides into Sturgis with Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators on Friday, Aug. 10, for a performance at the Buffalo Chip Campground.

Slash, who last played in Sturgis with Velvet Revolver in 2007, is happy to be coming back to the Black Hills.

?I just think Sturgis is a great event,? he said. ?I remember being excited to do it with Velvet Revolver, and finally getting there. It was my first time there. Now I?m really looking forward to it, because Velvet Revolver with (lead singer) Scott (Weiland) was always like a hit-or-miss proposition. Whereas with this one coming up, I know it definitely is going to be a monster gig. It?s going to be great to be in that environment.?

There is no doubt Slash comes to Sturgis on a roll.
