They’re
back! Legendary rock band Guns N’ Roses marked its triumphant return to The
Joint at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino to launch its second residency, An
Evening of Destruction. No Trickery!, on Wednesday, May 21. We saw the show on May 25th courtesy of www.Klout.com and it is simply amazing!!!
Actor
and friend of the band Nicolas Cage helped kicked off the sold-out show by
getting concertgoers amped up as Guns N’ Roses prepared to take Las Vegas by
storm. Within seconds of his exit, guitarist DJ Ashba elevated into the air on
a center stage platform overlooking the crowd followed by a firework display
during which vocalist Axl Rose, guitarists Ron “Bumblefoot” Thal and Richard
Fortus, bassist Tommy Stinson, keyboardists Dizzy Reed and Chris Pitman, and
drummer Frank Ferrer appeared alongside him. In true Guns N’ Roses fashion, the
band welcomed everyone to the jungle with its all-new, never-before-seen
production.

large LED screens above and around the stage, fireworks and laser displays,
beautiful dancers, platforms and more. In addition to the elaborate theatrics,
Guns N’ Roses delivered a set-list full of its biggest hits including “Sweet
Child O’ Mine,” “Welcome to the Jungle,” “Paradise City,” “Mr. Brownstone,”
“Estranged,” an intimate piano rendition of “November Rain” by Rose and more.
Spotted in the crowd was model Jenna Jameson.
