Rock legends Guns N’ Roses announced that they will be performing this May 17th at the Mahalaxmi Race Course in Mumbai as part of their Asia tour. Last time the band had come to India, it was the year 2012, with gigs at Bangalore, Mumbai and Gurgaon.
Their current lineup includes Axl Rose (vocals/piano), Slash (guitar), Richard Fortus (guitar), Duff McKagan (bass), Dizzy Reed (keyboards) and Frank Ferrer (drums). Guitar powerhouse Slash had left the band in 1996. Slash came back in 2016, after 20 years. Hence the last time Guns N’ Roses did not have Slash, neither had bassist Duff McKagan joined.
Fans are excited to headbang to their favorites “Welcome To The Jungle”, “Paradise City”, “November Rain” and of course their chart topper “Sweet Child O’ Mine”.
“Growing up, Guns N’ Roses was a huge part of my musical journey as well. The band defined an era of rock that continues to inspire generations. Having the chance to bring these legends back to India is a surreal and proud moment for BookMyShow Live.” states Anil Makhija, chief operating officer of live entertainment and venues for BookMyShow.
