If you’re headed to Guns N’ Roses tonight or Saturday, it’s time to get amped!
Gunners have been to Europe, North and South America, Mexico, Asia, and Aussie on this tour - and now they’re headed to Wellington’s Sky Stadium tonight, and Auckland’s Eden Park on Saturday. She’s gonna be huuuuge!

Looking at all of their recent Aussie gigs on Setlist.FM, the first three songs of the setlist seem to be locked in place (‘It’s So Easy,’ ‘Mr. Brownstone’ and ‘Chinese Democracy’), but the order of tracks in the middle differ slightly from show to show.
It also looks like we can count on the last three songs of the evening being ‘Patience,’ ‘Don’t Cry’ and ‘Paradise City’ respectively. Fuck yeah.
If you are headed to the shows, don’t forget The Rock is hosting pre-gigs from 2pm at Macs Brewbar tonight (December 8) and at Morningside Tavern on Saturday (December 10).
See you there maaates!
