About the event
Divergent Promotions presents by arrangement with TKO
John 5 has been one of the most in-demand guitar players on the planet. As well as a guitarist for hire, 5 has shared the stage as axe-man for Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson and Rob Halford. He has also worked with an impressive array of names, from all walks of music, including KD Lang, Rod Stewart, Dave Lee Roth, Alice Cooper, Tina Guo and Steven Adler.
To call John 5 a shredder does not do him justice. There’s little he can’t put his hand to.Catch the guitar legend in concert at Newcastle University on May 9th
Limited VIP packages available including a Pre-show M&G with John 5, a signing session, photo opportunity, John 5 guitar pick set, Exclusive VIP laminate and a limited edition tour poster.
