Slash plays Belleville?

I posted this in our 2old2jam forum, but I don't think anyone reads it.  I figure it's a good enough story for a blog entry.

For some reason, Slash played in Belleville on Saturday...it was awesome. I was hanging around the theatre in the afternoon and Slash's guitar tech invited me backstage and gave me a personal tour of all Slash's gear etc. I told him I had pre-ordered the Slash's new amp (the AFD100), so he gave me an very in-depth tutorial about how all the new features work, and little things that he and Slash do to get the most out of it. I hung out with him for about 2 hours, and he showed me all of Slash's touring guitars as he was sound-checking them, and his "backup amps", which are the same jubilee's he used on the GNR tours (it still says Guns n Roses on the case). 

Long story short, I had a blast, got some cool pictures, and Chet (Slash's tech) is one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. He even hooked my wife and I up with backstage passes after the show...but I still managed to find a way to NOT meet Slash.  I was being far to polite and patient.
