Slash is one of the most distinctive and in-demand guitarists of the last 30 years, equally confident working in hard rock and pop.

As the lead guitarist for Guns N’ Roses, Slash cemented his reputation as a fluid, articulate player, but once he left that band during the ‘90s, he continued to build on his legacy by delivering high-profile guest spots on other people’s albums, not to mention signing on to be a part of the supergroup Velvet Revolver. Born July 23, 1965, Slash released his first solo album, Slash, in 2010. 50,000 unit his album was sold.

Some may also know Slash through his appearance as the playable character in the video game – Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock.

On 15 June 2010, Firefly has officially announced the SLASH concert happening on August 5 at a press conference held at Sunway Lagoon Resort Hotel & Spa.

In a statement issued by Firefly today, the extra flights during Chinese New Year covers  the Singapore – Ipoh  route  on the 9, 11, 12, 13, 16, 17 and 21 February 2010 and the Subang – Alor Setar route  on 13 February.

The Singapore – Ipoh- Singapore route extra flights have been on sale  since October 2009.

Firefly’s head of marketing and communications, Ms Angelina Fernandez, said they are sharing the excitement of this year’s Chinese New Year falling on the same day as Valentine’s Day. The demand to travel has increased dramatically as we think that apart from those rushing to balik kampong both to celebrate Chinese New Year Family reunion and the holidays, the demand has probably been arisen from couples  and families going for their romantic reunion weekends.  

“Firefly looks forward to bring families together for this Chinese New Year festive holidays to all our passengers.  Family reunion are especially important and is a very significant part of all our lives. Every festive holiday is always a family reunion for all of us. We would like to wish all our passengers and their families a very Happy and Prosperous Chinese New Year and Happy Holidays” said Angelina.

Singapore has earned the distinction of being one of the most crime-free countries in the world. The streets are usually quite safe at all times, even at nights. However, there are occasional pickpockets and purse snatchers who prey on unsuspecting victims. So, do keep an eye on your wallets and purse even when you are busy shopping but there’s also that easier option, which is to just bring your credit cards.

There are no specific areas, which are crime prone but it is better to avoid dark and secluded streets, especially if you are alone.

Malls from Orchard Road to Bugis slash prices off their products for this sale. Selected malls also extend their shopping hours (10 am to 9 pm), which may sometimes run past midnight, but apply to selected weekends only.
