Describing his time in Guns N' Roses as surreal, Sorum credits the band for giving him credibility throughout his career.

He expressed gratitude for his Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction and reflected on relationships with former bandmates Steven Adler and Axl Rose.

Sorum recalled the formation of Velvet Revolver, describing the thrill of starting fresh with Slash, Duff McKagan, and Dave Kushner.

He shared stories from behind the scenes during their recording of Contraband and praised Axl Rose's talent.

Turning to his experiences with Geezer Butler in Deadland Ritual, Sorum shared humorous anecdotes from their time on stage together.

In a nostalgic turn of events, Sorum recounted legendary stories from Butler about Black Sabbath's early touring days.

He described the camaraderie among bandmates and praised their hard work in crafting songs like those recorded during their attic slumber period.

Sorum called his chance to perform with rock heroes a personal milestone: "That's been the greatest part of my life—getting to play some of my favorite songs with some of the original guys.

I get great satisfaction… if we raise some money, that's great too."
