On July 12th, Guns N' Roses performed at Goffertpark in Nijmegen, Netherlands as part of their Not In This Lifetime tour. One again, they were joined by AC/DC guitar icon Angus Young for covers of his band's "Whole Lotta Rosie" and "Riff Raff", which has happened previously in Hannover, Germany and Sydney, Australia. Fan-filmed video of the performances are available below.

Guns N' Roses landed in Israel ahead of their concert in Tel Aviv on Saturday night, and were forced to cancel a visit to Jerusalem following a terror attack in the city, reports Ynet.

Frontman Axl Rose, guitarist Slash and bassist Duff McKagan were supposed to land at Ben-Gurion Airport last night and wanted to tour Jerusalem the next day, but eventually arrived in Israel early in the morning and their tour of the city was postponed.
