A spin-off of the Rock N Roll Allstars ~ Kings Of Chaos is a new live project that Glenn is a member of; comprised of members from some of the greatest rock bands in recent history, performing hits from Guns N’ Roses, Def Leppard, Deep Purple and more.
The live project includes Matt Sorum, Duff McKagan, Gilby Clarke, Joe Elliott, Glenn Hughes, Sebastian Bach, Steve Stevens and also a host of special guests!

Glenn has been on a plane all day, returning from a string of gigs in Eastern Europe and Israel, and was unaware of the sad news of Jon Lord’s passing earlier today. Soon after his arrival back home, he issued a brief statement:
Friends : I have just landed in LA from London, to hear the sad news of the passing of our brother Jon Lord.
I will miss him.
Prayers please.
