Our contributing photographer Tom Donoghue captured this set of images from the Slash & Friends rock concert on Friday night and early yesterday morning celebrating The Mirage’s 20th anniversary this year.

Guitar legend Slash and his music friends rocked Bare Pool Lounge, which is where Slash and his wife, Perla Hudson, first met 18 years ago. They greeted fans, and from that point onward, it was the most rockin' jam session imaginable.

Seen through the lens of Tom Donoghue’s Nikon camera are Slash, Joe Perry of Aerosmith, Nicole Scherzinger of Pussycat Dolls, Courtney Love, Rocco DeLuca, Chris Daughtry, Franky Perez, Rick Nielsen of Cheap Trick and Duff McKagan of Guns N’ Roses.
