Calling in the big guns (no pun intended).
During her headlining set at Stagecoach Music Festival last night, one of the largest country music festivals in the world, Carrie Underwood pulled out all the stops.
Amid a barrage of her own smash hits, she tipped the cap to one of her all-time favorite rock bans… the Los Angeles based Guns N’ Roses. But she didn’t just cover one of their songs…. no, she did fans one better.
During a performance of “Sweet Child Of Mine,” Carrie told the crowd:
“Welcome to the greatest night of my life, give it up for Axl Rose.”
The Guns N’ Roses frontman took the stage picking up with the second verse and the pair also rocked out a duet of “Paradise City.”
Written by Axl himself, “Sweet Child Of Mine” was featured on their debut album Appetite For Destruction, and released as the third single in 1988. Guns N’ Roses followed it up with the release of “Paradise City” in 1989.
Guns N’ Roses headlined the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in 2016.
