More info about the show and why he's taking Orianthi with him:

Quote:
When asked about the kind of show he has in store for punters, Sambora unleashed a tale that could only come from a true rock star. Featuring a supporting cast of Alice Cooper, former Van Halen frontman Sammy Hagar, and Aerosmith‘s Steven Tyler, the story recounts how he came to recruit Australian international guitar goddess, Orianthi, to join him at Soundwave:

“Over the holidays, I was in Maui with my daughter and a couple of friends. [Legendary music manager] Shep Gordon and Alice Cooper do this charity event every New Year’s Eve.”

“[Cooper] says, ‘Rick, you gotta come play.’ And I was like ‘Yeah, bring it, man! I can’t wait!’ And it ended up being me and Alice and Sammy Hagar…and Steven Tyler, who’s another dear friend of mine… That was a gas!”

“And then I ran into Orianthi, and I was like, ‘Holy cow, this chick is badass!’ So we got on stage and we played together and there was a very magical chemistry about it. So she’s coming to play – she’s in the band!”

While Sambora’s more popular output might seem an odd fit for a predominantly punk and metal festival, he is an accomplished shred guitarist. Fans can expect lots of jamming, improvisation, and guitar interplay between himself and Orianthi. “I think that’s what people wanna hear and trust me, me and Ori are gonna jam.”

He’s also excited about Alice in Chains being on the bill and looks forward to seeing his “buddies” Green Day. Will we see them on stage together? “I’m available for a jam.”

Also joining Sambora will be players from his latest record, Aftermath of the Lowdown. “When you listen to Aftermath, there’s extended solos all over the place and I like to let the wild horses run. If you’re playing with a bunch of amazing, talented musicians, you let them go and let their spirits free,” said Sambora. “To me, that’s entertainment… We’re gonna bring it.”

“I’m psyched. Beyond psyched. I really am,” he enthused. “And you know what? Everybody else is too. The whole band are raring to go.”

Sambora will appear at Soundwave alongside headliners Green Day and Avenged Sevenfold, plus other last-minute lineup additions including Filter and I Killed The Prom Queen. The festival kicks off in Brisbane on 22nd February.

I am so pumped about this. I was going to Soundwave anyways but this has just made it huge. I am alot more excited about this than the Jovi show last month. He has indicated he may be doing some Sidewave shows, so wife permitting (they never do Sidewaves in Adelaide), would love to see one of those as well. The only time I saw Sambora solo was about 15 years ago and is still one of my favourite shows ever. Oh...and I am planning on using my celebrity rule hall pass on Orianthi.

This sounds Fantastic. I think that Richie wanted a bigger role in the last Bon Jovi records (and Tour) but the CEO did not agree.

Oh that's awesome, I really hope he does because the Sydney show is on the same day as Bruce in the Hunter. Where abouts did he mention sideshows?
