THE iconic purveyors of hair-metal Guns N’ Roses have many tribute bands to their name but none as popular as Guns 2 Roses.

This band is the UK’s longest running tribute to the mega band who stormed the music scene in the 1980s with albums like Appetite for Destruction and Use Your Illusion.

Guns 2 Roses return to Tavistock Wharf this Saturday (January 28) for another storming gig.

The band formed in 2002 and are the only tribute to perform live with four different members of Guns N’ Roses,

Their ability to emulate the classic band has even been approved by members of the original and current line up of Guns N’ Roses.

They have, and still, play to thousands throughout the UK, Europe, Middle East and the USA, from the O2 Academy in the UK to all the top venues and festivals worldwide.

Guns 2 Roses also mirror image the original band line-up, with ever changing authentic stage outfits to catch the era and stage performances down to the last detail.

Playing many songs from Appetite For Destruction, GNR Lies, Use Your Illusion I and

II, Spaghetti Incident and even tracks from Chinese Democracy. Guns 2 Roses sometimes even throw in the songs that Guns N’Roses did live that never made it to an album, in order to keep with the spirit and deliver a different show every time.
