Slash had a surreal experience with the project recently, according to bassist Todd Kerns.

All this to the throes of 'Welcome To The Jungle' raging on the soundtrack. Junior and I just looked at each other and started laughing. Here we are in a theater full of people sitting with the guy who is on the big screen, playing guitar on the song they are hearing and they are completely unaware. So surreal. This is life on Planet Slash..."
