Guns N' Roses Stage Surprise Show

GUNS N' ROSES have put their recent concert woes behind them - they took to the stage in Paris, France for a surprise show on Tuesday (14Sep10).

The rockers were forced offstage at Britain's Reading Festival last month (Aug10) after overrunning their allotted time, and they angered fans at a show in Dublin, Ireland earlier this month (Sep10) by keeping them waiting for an hour and then playing for just 20 minutes before storming off after concertgoers pelted them with water bottles.

Many members of the audience immediately left the venue, convinced the gig was over before Rose and his bandmates returned to complete the concert an hour later - but organisers have refused to offer refunds to disgruntled fans.

But the band proved they're still determined to please their followers - they announced a surprise concert at the L'Arc restaurant/bar in the French capital on Tuesday.

In a post on their website hours before the show, they announced, "Well the best band in the world will play an acoustic set tonight at L'arc Restaurant bar, inbeautiful Paris. Hope some of you will be able to get there."

The band performed a full set of their most beloved hits, including Welcome To The Jungle, Sweet Child O' Mine and Paradise City.
