SLASH To Be Joined By ROB ZOMBIE Drummer, Ex-JANE’S ADDICTION Bassist On ‘American Idol’'

Keri Kelli (ALICE COOPER, VINCE NEIL, SLASH’S SNAKEPIT, SKID ROW, WARRANT, RATT) will join VELVET REVOLVER /ex-GUNS N’ ROSES guitarist Slash for this week’s “mentor” appearance on “Rock Week” on “American Idol “, the annual reality show and singing competition. Keri says, “The show will air rehearsal footage with all four remaining contestants Tuesday, May 5 and we will perform live on Wednesday night! Joining us will be Cooper alumni, drummer Tommy Clufetos [also of ROB ZOMBIE ], and bass legend Chris Chaney [JANE'S ADDICTION].”

Slash last week stated about his “American Idol” appearance, “I was reluctant [to take part] at first, but they offered me the freedom to do it however I wanted. More importantly, there are a few singers this year who are really impressive. It’s the first time any ‘American Idol’ lineup has really caught my attention.”

Slash added, “The approach I’m taking is different than usual on the show and I’m going to make this as rock and roll an ‘American Idol’ as possible
