Matt Sorum and guitarist Gilby Clarke—as well as Alice in Chains bassist Mike Inez and former Jellyfish live guitarist Eric
Dover on lead vocals. Their debut album, It's Five O'Clock Somewhere, was released in 1995. They played shows in the
US, Europe, Japan and Australia before Geffen Records pulled their financial support for the tour, with Slash returning to Guns
N' Roses and Slash's Snakepit disbanding. They recorded and released their second album entitled Ain't Life Grand in 2000,
which was preceded by a tour supporting AC/DC and followed by their own headlining tour. For the tour, Keri Kelli joined the
group in place of Ryan Roxie, who departed following the completion of the album. However, after the final show, Slash
disbanded Slash's Snakepit due to a lack of commitment from his band members. « hide |
