made them want to start playing it live again. While not played at every show, it was often played at Guns N' Roses performances from 2018 onward. On October 7, 2019, Guns N' Roses performed the Use Your Illusion II track Locomotive, which had not been played live since 1992. Each time it was played, it replaced Coma as a lead-in to band member introductions and Slash's Guitar Solo. The song was played two more times on the tour: October 13 and 23, 2019. On October 23, 2019, the band played Dead Horse, which Guns N' Roses had not played since 1993, although Duff McKagan had performed it as a solo act the previous summer. The band played it at every remaining show of the tour, and continued to include it in their 2020 performances. Core set The band continued, as they had done in past tours, to keep the core set which included their most well-known songs. The core set largely consisted of songs from their debut album Appetite For Destruction, namely "Welcome to the Jungle", "It's So Easy", "Nightrain", "Mr. Brownstone", "Paradise City", "Sweet Child o' Mine" and "Rocket Queen". The remaining core songs were tracks from the Use Your Illusion albums and Chinese Democracy. This included some of the aforementioned songs: the newly added "Double Talkin' Jive", as well as "Chinese Democracy", "Better" and "This I Love". In addition, "Live and Let Die", "November Rain", "Knockin' On Heaven's Door", "Estranged", and "You Could Be Mine" were played at every concert (except "November Rain" and "Estranged", which were not played at the shorter club show at the Troubadour). Opening songs In all tours from 2001 and on, Guns N' Roses had (with few exceptions) opened their show with either "Welcome to the Jungle" or "Chinese Democracy". For this tour, they changed things up, using the song "It's So Easy" as the opening song. "Chinese Democracy" and "Welcome to the Jungle" took the number 3 and 4 spots in the set, with "Mr. Brownstone" being the second song played, as was common during their older tours. Solo spots In past tours, an extensive number of solo spots were a usual part of the setlist. They cut this down to a minimum, keeping the set quite tight with the performance of regular songs as the main focus. Slash did have a solo spot with "The Godfather theme", a guitar instrumental
