Guns N' Roses Make Trouble Free Comeback At London Gig

October 14, 2010
Guns N' Roses Make Trouble Free Comeback At London GigGuns N' Roses performed in the UK last night (October 13) for the first time since their much talk about appearance at this summer's Reading and Leeds festivals.

The band thrilled fans at the first of two shows at London's O2 Arena, playing for almost three hours.

Songs in the group's set included 'Chinese Democracy', 'Welcome To The Jungle', 'Nice Boys' and closer 'Paradise City'.

Singer Axl Rose kept crowd interaction to a minimum during the performance, and didn't refer to the band's troubled festival appearances in August.

Guns N' Roses upset festival-goers when they arrived late for both shows. In Reading, the band's sound was also cut by organisers.

However, in London last night the group played beyond midnight and fans were warned beforehand about transport arrangements to-and-from the venue.

Fans have been reacting positively on Guns N' Roses fan sites, with one saying the band were “on top form” at the concert.

On Twitter, support act Sebastian Bach said: “Show was cool! London crowd needed some warming up in the beginning, but by the end it was an ass kicking rock show!”

Guns N' Roses are scheduled to perform at the O2 Arena again tonight (October 14), before touring.
