Slash and his friends -- including Hole singer Courtney Love, Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger, his wife Perla Hudson, Joe Perry of Aerosmith and Chris Daughtry of Daughtry -- rocked Bare Pool Lounge in The Mirage last night, and leading lens lady Denise Truscello was there to capture these shots for our photo gallery.

The concert, Slash & Friends, was part of The Mirage’s 20th anniversary celebration. Chris was back in town after performing at Andre Agassi’s annual Grand Slam for Children benefit last weekend at the Wynn.

After Slash & Friends, it was time for the rockers to party and unwind at Jet in The Mirage, which also served as Slash’s after-party for Mario Barth’s Biggest Tattoo Show on Earth and featured a performance by Darling Stilettos.

Tattoo titan Mario revealed exclusively to Vegas DeLuxe yesterday, which I tweeted, that he is opening his own tattoo salon, nightclub and after-hours lounge in The Mirage on New Year’s Eve. The space near valet parking and opposite Jet, formerly a coffee and souvenir store, was gutted this week.

“It’s just a dust bowl right now,” Mario told me, “but construction starts next week. It will be the world’s ultimate tattoo salon. Nobody has anything like this anywhere.”
