Guns N' Roses Tour Kicks Off Tonight

Guns N' Roses kick off their UK and Ireland tour tonight (May 17th) at Dublin's O2 Arena and have given plenty of hints about what you can expect from the set list.


The band recently played two shows in Moscow with the band's most recent show featured a 23-song set list, with classics Sweet Child O'Mine, Paradise City, Mr. Brownstone and November Rain all included.


The band have also been performing their versions of Paul McCartney's Live And Let Die, AC/DC's Whole Lotta Rosie and have been closing their sets with Frank Sinatra's My Way.


There have also been a barrage of instrumental breaks during their sets, with the group's guitarists bringing out their own take on Pink Floyd's Another Brick In The Wall and The Who's Baba O'Reilly.


Guns N' Roses are due on stage tonight at 9.15pm (GMT), but we all know that the band aren't that great at time keeping, so we'll see. After the show in Dublin, the band will go on to play eight shows across the UK with Thin Lizzy supporting .
