2010s Supergroup Announces Show With Rock Icons

Dominating the music scene with a powerhouse lineup, the supergroup King of Chaos is gearing up for something big and exciting.

With all the reunion concerts and world tours from different notable groups this year, the all-star rock collective announced a special show that promises high-octane performances from rock music's familiar faces.

Ahead of the scheduled shows in 2026, King of Chaos is kicking off on August with a one-night-only performance that fans shouldn't miss.

In an Instagram post, the band announced a "killer" lineup set to perform on Aug. 1 at The Show in California.

King of Chaos, featuring founder and original member Matt Sorum from Guns N' Roses and Velvet Revolver, is joined by Glenn Hughes from Deep Purple, Billy Idol's longtime guitarist Steve Stevens and Bon Jovi member Phil X.

Adding to the excitement are REO Speedwagon's Kevin Cronin, Richie Sambora of Bon Jovi and Night Ranger co-founder Jack Blades.

In addition, the show will feature "all the greatest songs from the members' respective bands," with tickets now available.

The comment section was filled with excited fans who couldn't wait to see the powerhouse lineup on one stage.

"Wow, not 1 but 2 @bonjovi guitarists!" one wrote.

"Wow be great seeing Richie Sambora and Jack Blades onstage together. Bon Jovi and Night Ranger are 2 of my favourite Bands from the 80s," a follower said.

"Holy RocknRoll!!" a fan added.

The same goes for an Instagram user noting "Every person in this lineup is stellar," while others are requesting more dates featuring this star-studded ensemble.

Formed in 2012, King of Chaos was created as a rotating band, which means that it doesn't have a permanent lineup.

Instead, the band showcases shifting members depending on their availability during a project or tour.

Some of the musicians who have become part of the lineup include Slash, Gilby Clarke and Duff McKagan of Guns N' Roses, Corey Taylor of Slipknot and Stone Sour, Megadeth's James LoMenzo, The Cult's Billy Duffy and more.

Sorum once described the band as "a bit of a wild ride" based on his experience; however, he appreciates the unpredictability of the lineup.

"But at the same time, I don't know if I would've wanted it any other way," he told Windsor Star in 2015, adding, "You know, I see bands with lead singers who are really nice. Squeaky clean. And I really don't feel I'm getting that wild, rock n' roll sensibility that I want."

On the other hand, fans will also get to see the supergroup on Oct. 25 to Nov. 1 for Rock the Boat 2026 with King of Chaos as the headliner.
