The
Hollywood Chamber Of Commerce last month announced that
Slash will be honored with a star on the
Hollywood Walk Of Fame later today (Tuesday, July 10) in front of Hard Rock Café on Hollywood Blvd.
"
Slash is widely considered one of the greatest rock guitarists of all time," said
Ana Martinez, producer of the
Hollywood Walk Of Fame ceremonies, "We are proud to place his name among the stars on our fabled
Hollywood Walk Of Fame."
You can stream the ceremony today at 11:30 a.m. PST / 2:30 p.m. EST from the
Walk Of Fame web site.
In celebration of the star dedication,
Slash will perform at a private acoustic performance and exclusive question-and-answer session with
Slash and
Myles Kennedy at Hard Rock Café Hollywood Blvd. after the ceremony.
Hard Rock has created a limited edition pin to commemorate the historic occasion of one of rock n roll's most iconic guitarists receiving a star on the
Hollywood Walk Of Fame. Only 300 of these pins will be created and will be sold only at the Hard Rock Café Hollywood Blvd. with all proceeds benefitting the
Los Angeles Youth Network and the
Hollywood Historic Trust which maintains the iconic
Hollywood Walk Of Fame.
Charlie Sheen, a neighbor and personal friend of
Slash's who called himself a "Rock Star From Mars" when he underwent a public meltdown amid his firing from the
CBS show
"Two and a Half Men", will speak at
Slash's induction ceremony.
