"Muhammad Ali is & always has been a role model & a hero to me," says SLASH. "It's a huge privilege to be able to perform in his honor. He is one of the great icons of American culture and history." The 16th annual Power of Love Gala celebrates the life and legacy of Ali and his contribution to the world and raises awareness for Alzheimer's, Huntington's, ALS, Multiple Sclerosis and Parkinson's, the disease "The Champ" has been battling since 1984.
