For those who don\u2019t remember the band\u2019s groundswell and<br>meteoric rise caused by their voracious street teams and crazed fans, there was little doubt<br>the band wouldn\u2019t nab a coveted record deal.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/capitalchaostv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/screenshot_20240105-0925432-1.png?w=700&amp;h=740\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22861\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Today the group are firing on all cylinders and 1\/2 of the classic line-up are once again<br>playing together. Mark Slaughter (lead vocals, rhythm guitar, keyboards, piano, tambourine)<br>still leads the band which bears his namesake and the group is rounded out by core member<br>Dana Strum (bass, backing vocals), Jordan Cannata (drums), and Jeff \u201cBlando\u201d Bland (lead<br>guitar, backing vocals). For those who don\u2019t remember, original guitarist Tim Kelly was sadly<br>killed in a car accident in 1998.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And while Slaughter haven\u2019t been as prolific as their hungry fans would have hoped for, they<br>are still a formidable force on the touring circuit and large-scale festivals including (but most<br>certainly not limited to) the Monsters of Rock Cruise, the M3 Rock Festival, and<br>Rocklahoma. To date, they have released 5 full-lengths, 3 live albums, and two Gold-selling<br>home videos. Expect to hear classic songs from the Gold-selling \u2018The Wild Life\u2019 record in<br>addition to some wicked covers from some classic bands you know and love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those longtime and newbie fans worrying if Mark can still hit the high notes, let\u2019s just say<br>he hasn\u2019t lost a step since the early 90\u2019s and even late 80\u2019s fronting the shortlived Vinnie<br>Vincent Invasion. His multi-octave still continues to amaze on fan favorite and classic tracks<br>such as \u201cFly To The Angels,\u201d \u201cUp All Night,\u201d \u201cThe Wild Life,\u201d and \u201cSpend My Life.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Slaughter and Great White play Thursday, January 18th at The Hard Rock Live located in<br>Wheatland at 3317 Forty Mile Road. Doors open at 7pm and the show kicks off at 8pm.<br>Tickets start at $39.50 and are available at&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketmaster.com\/great-white-slaughter-wheatland-california-01-18-2024\/event\/1C005F37F17C45BD\">ticketmaster.com<\/a>.
