Re: Slash & Adam Levine Ellen Performance
For his May 11 appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show (syndicated, check local listings), Slash will be joined by Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine.
The pair will perform 'Gotten,�� from Slash'™s new, self-titled album. Levine also co-wrote the tune and sings on the recorded version. Slash also features contributions from Dave Grohl, Kid Rock, Iggy Pop, Ozzy Osbourne, Fergie and Lemmy Kilmister.

This song, Back from Cali, Beautiful Dangerous, and I'll Hold On all have single potential.

Re: Slash & Adam Levine Ellen Performance
You could argue about whether Slash should play on a show like Ellen, but this is definitely exposing him to a whole new audience (debatable whether it's a good audience), and no doubt they'll all fall for the song, as it's right up their alley!
I've actually grown to appreciate the song, I just wish it had a better guitar solo i it.

The audience Slash is being shown to are the same groupies and chicks from the 80's when GNR got big, they're just married and with kids now.

I agree, but I wonder how many more singles this album will actually have. I mean, record labels normally finance singles, don't they? How much is an independent label going to put forth. I'd be surprised if there were 4/5 actual singles off the album. Not that radio won't play more than that. Everyone seems to love "Ghost".

Re: Slash & Adam Levine Ellen Performance
I still think that after hearing a snippet of Back From Cali on Triple M (local crappy excuse for a Sydney rock station), that it could do well on the radio. They should release it as promo for the Australian tour, especially with the fact that Myles is the singer for the solo tour.
But then again, the Aussie shows have sold out anyway, so unless it will mean more album sales, I guess Slash would be happy with his successes in Australia so far.
Edit* I just checked the local charts and "Slash" is already out of the top 20, so maybe he could do with another boost to album sales.
