Guns N' Roses kicked off their 2025 world tour on Thursday (May 1) at Songdo Moonlight Festival Park in Incheon, South Korea. It was the band's first show in a year and a half and first with new drummer Isaac Carpenter, who replaced longtime GNR member Frank Ferrer in March.
They kicked off the 22-song set with their hit "Welcome to the Jungle," which surprisingly hasn't been an opening song since February of 2012. The rest of the performance saw Axl Rose and company was career-spanning, and instead of playing an encore they ended their set with a trio of classics: “Patience,” “Nightrain,” and “Paradise City.”
Watch fan-shot footage of "Welcome to the Jungle" and check out the full setlist below.
