The announcement was first made last Friday, on 102.5 The Bone’s BOTB-winning Mike Calta Show. The 56-year old Guns N’ Roses guitarist has been to Tampa before—with and without the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer band—but Ruth Eckerd is a new one for both him and Myles Kennedy, with whom he’s been collaborating with since 2009.

Tickets to see Slash featuring Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators at Ruth Eckerd Hall go on sale this Friday, Oct. 29, and start at $38.25. And if you’re looking for something to build your hair-metalhead anticipation, the two just released “The River Is Rising,” the first single off of their new album 4, set for release on Feb. 11.
