Not only a great guitarist but one cool motherf*cker!!!

PS: I'm surprised Slash hasn't had any health problems (at least none that I know of)...the guys drinks like a fish and smokes like a chimney!!! He's invincible!

 

[basschick22]

he's cheated death a few times, according to the various documentaries that i've seen. he's had his share of health scares, but we're lucky to still have him around.
