Former Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash and his wife got the go-ahead from a Los Angeles judge to proceed with a lawsuit against the brokers who sold them what they thought was a party-worthy Hollywood Hills home.

The lawsuit, which seeks more than $1 million and punitive damages, alleges that real estate agent Gregory Holcomb and Sotheby's International Realty misrepresented the house, saying it was a good location to hold big bashes.  Slash claims the home is smaller than advertised and is located on a public street with parking restrictions.

The judge refused to dismiss the couple's claims, but will allow Sotheby's to dispute the punitive damages.
