Guns N' Roses just gave their São Paulo fans an unforgettable night. The legendary rock band played Monsters of Rock Brazil this weekend. Surprisingly, they dusted off a track nobody expected to hear. They performed "Bad Apples" live for the very first time in 35 years. On the flip side, this song has only seen the stage twice ever. The only other time was way back at Rock in Rio in 1991. The crowd at Allianz Parque went absolutely wild.
Furthermore, the band also played rare hits like "Dead Horse." Fans also got to rock out to the classic "Rocket Queen." Axl and the crew really know how to put on a massive show. They definitely brought intense energy to the stage. Honestly, this South American tour is already breaking all the rules. It shows they still have plenty of tricks up their sleeves.
Fresh Setlists And Brand New Tracks
Slash actually promised fans a wild mix of music earlier this year. He told a Las Vegas radio station about their epic 2026 world tour plans. The rock icons officially kicked things off in Mexico last month. Regardless of their massive catalog, they keep pushing boundaries. During that opening gig, they debuted two brand new songs. Fans finally heard live versions of "Atlas" and "Nothin'." These tracks follow their surprise 2023 single releases.
Still, the band perfectly blends these fresh cuts with their vintage hits. Slash and his bandmates clearly love keeping the audience guessing. Seeing them mix deep cuts with unreleased material is thrilling. Live music updates simply do not get much better than this. The guys seem energized and totally ready to conquer the globe. Fans everywhere are scrambling to get tickets for upcoming dates.
A Real Original Album Is Coming
The most exciting news might actually be their studio plans. Slash recently spilled the beans about releasing a full package of older recordings. The band recently finished tweaking the very last vault tracks. Nevertheless, they have much bigger plans on the horizon. The legendary guitarist confirmed they will drop a completely original album soon. This will be their first real follow-up since Chinese Democracy dropped in 2008. Fans have waited patiently for almost two decades.
Above all, this proves Guns N' Roses remains a creative force. Their upcoming schedule looks incredibly busy right now. They will rock another Brazilian city on April 7. After a few more massive stadium gigs, they head straight to Florida. American fans should definitely prepare for an unforgettable tour experience. It is an amazing time to be a hard rock fan.
