West, Schenker, Roth To Team Up For Tour

Leslie West, Michael Schenker and Uli Jon Roth have announced a 17 date, "3 Guitar Heroes Of Rock" tour on which all three guitarists will play individual sets before teaming up for a collective jam each night.

"When the opportunity came up I hopped on board," he explained. "That's right – the guy who just had his leg amputated. These guys are monster players and this should be a lot of fun."

Michael Schenker echoed West's enthusiasm, saying, "It is very exciting to be part of a tour that has very deeply rooted connections with two guitarists that have been at their best since the start of their careers."
