Guns N' Roses last performed together in the UK in 2010. They released their most recent album, Chinese Democracy, in 2008 and are currently said to be working on new material. The original members of the band - including former guitarist Slash - are due to appear together on the same stage in April as the band is inducted into the US Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame, although Slash played down rumours they would be performing together.
