The post Wolfgang Van Halen Joins Slash and Myles Kennedy for AC/DC’s “Highway to Hell” in Paris: Watch appeared first on Consequence.

Slash Featuring Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators wrapped up their UK/European tour in Paris on Monday (April 29th) by bringing Wolfgang Van Halen onstage for a rousing cover of the AC/DC classic “Highway to Hell.” Wolfgang’s band Mammoth WVH served as support on the month-long run.

Kennedy introduced Wolfgang, telling the crowd, “We’re honored that we’ve been able to tour with this next gentleman and his band, ’cause I think he’s one of the most talented people on the planet.”

Slash then started playing the iconic “Highway to Hell” riff, with the rest of the band and Wolfgang joining in soon thereafter. Bassist Todd Kearns handled lead vocals on the verses, with Kennedy and Wolfgang chiming in on the chorus. At one point, Wolfgang delivered a blistering guitar solo.

Wolfgang was returning a favor, as earlier in the evening, Kennedy joined Mammoth WVH onstage for a rendition of the latter’s “Take a Bow.”

Fans in North America will have plenty of opportunities to catch Slash and Wolfgang on tour this year, albeit separately.

Slash is set to headline his own S.E.R.P.E.N.T. traveling blues festival, which kicks off in early July (tickets available here). The outing will be in support of Slash’s all-star blues album, Orgy of the Damned, which arrives on May 17th.

Meanwhile, Wolfgang will continue to tour relentlessly with Mammoth WVH, kicking off a headlining spring US outing this Saturday (May 4th), followed by support slots for Metallica, Foo Fighters, and Creed throughout the rest of the year. Pick up tickets to Mammoth WVH’s upcoming tour dates here.
