Guns N' Roses began NYC-area run at MSG, brought out Pink (videos, setlist)
Guns N’ Roses brought their current tour to the NYC-area last night (10/11) for their first of four shows here. Last night’s was one of three at Madison Square Garden, and during the encore, they brought Pink on stage to sing “Patience” with them. You can see video of that below. They also did Soundgarden’s “Black Hole Sun” as a tribute to Chris Cornell (as they’ve done before), and Chris Cornell’s solo song “You Know My Name” played over the PA after the show. Their 30-song set also included all their usual hits, tons of Appetite for Destruction, and their usual covers like “Live and Let Die” and “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door.” Check out the full setlist and some more pictures and videos below.
GNR’s run continues at Prudential Center tonight (10/12) and then returns to MSG on Sunday (10/15) & Monday (10/16) (tickets).
Pink’s own tour brings her to MSG for two shows (4/4 & 4/5) and Prudential Center for one (4/14) in 2018 (tickets).
