Needless to say, it was incredible.

Guns N' Roses performed in front of 80,000 fans in Slane in Ireland on Saturday night - despite torrential rain, but all accounts their set was incredible.   "This was a show of clarity and energy where Axl Rose’s epic whining vocals and Slash’s phenomenal guitar playing snapped back into focus," wrote Una Mullally of The Irish Times. "Duff McKagan meanwhile was introduced as a fellow Irishman to the crowd, with a Prince love symbol on his guitar." One of the highlights of the night was the band's cover of Soundgarden's seminal 'Black Hole Sun', which the band have since published on their Facebook page with a message for the late Chris Cornell, who died recently at the age of just 52. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWYsQgg21x8 Clip via Dror Nahum
