During a Guns and Roses Appetite for Destruction tour of 1987 there was an incident at the Roxy, Hollywood gig where the drummer Steven Adler tried to dye Slashes hair blonde while he was passed out at the post gig party. The blonde and black made it a slightly orangey, yellow colour. The rest of the band members decided his hair looked like streaks of piss, and hence the term "Going for Slash" was coined.
