Guns N’ Roses played to 83,000 people yesterday at Slane Castle as part of their Not In This Lifetime tour – and they put on one hell of a show.
Despite the rain, fans turned out in their thousands to see Axl Rose, Slash and Duff McKagan do their thing, and thankfully they didn’t disappoint.
The rockers performed their greatest hits, and emotions were high as they played a stunning version of Black Hole Sun in tribute to the late Chris Cornell.
Check out the best tweets about their incredible performance at Slane:
