Guns N’ Roses plans mini sets for Aerosmith tribute shows
Guns N’ Roses will perform at two Aerosmith + Friends shows on Oct.
29 and Nov.
1 at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles.
Guitarist Slash said the band has a mini set planned for each night.
The sets will include Aerosmith songs, and the band may also play some of its own music, though that has not been settled.
