Monsters of Rock Brazil has seen some jaw-dropping moments over the decades, but nothing prepared fans for the shockwave Guns N’ Roses sent rippling through São Paulo this weekend. Just when the crowd thought they’d heard every classic, every anthem, and every predictable tour staple, Axl Rose and company detonated a true blast from the past — a song the band had played only twice in their entire career, all the way back in 1991.

In an era where legacy bands tend to stick to the safe zone, GN’R did the exact opposite: they cracked open the vault.

And fans lost their minds.

A Deep Cut Resurrected After 35 Years

For the diehards, this moment was more than a surprise it was validation. Guns N’ Roses aren’t just running through nostalgia. They’re digging into the raw, gritty corners of the Use Your Illusion era, honoring the tracks that defined their chaotic brilliance.

When the opening notes hit, there was a split second where the crowd froze people looked at each other in disbelief — and then erupted. Phones shot up. Voices cracked. The arena shook.

This was a song that had been practically mythologized in GN’R fan circles: performed only twice in 1991, never again heard on stage… until now.

To resurrect something that obscure takes guts. And it shows one thing: this band, even in 2026, still loves playing with fire.

The Energy Shifted the Second the Riff Dropped

You could feel it instantly. The crowd went from “this is epic” to “is this really happening?” in seconds. Axl leaned into every lyric with that unmistakable bite. Slash tore into the solo like he’d secretly been waiting decades for this moment. Duff grinned like a man watching the impossible unfold. Even longtime fans admitted on social media that they never thought they’d hear this track live in their lifetime.

And that’s exactly why this moment hit so hard:

GN’R gave the fans something they didn’t even know they were allowed to ask for.

A New Era of Unpredictable Setlists?

If this performance means anything, it’s this: Guns N’ Roses might be entering a new era an era where the setlist becomes a battlefield of surprises.

For years, fans have speculated about what deep cuts could work live. Now, with this shocking resurrection, the door is wide open. GN’R have proven they’re not afraid to get weird, wild, and unpredictable with their choices.

And honestly? This is exactly what the 2026 tour needed.

The Fans Are Already Begging for More Surprises

The moment the video clips hit YouTube and X, the floodgates opened:

“If they played THAT song, then anything is possible.”

“This tour is already legendary and we’re only getting started.”

“Please let this be the beginning of the Illusion-era deep cuts.”

With fans buzzing louder than ever, one question is spreading like wildfire across fan pages, forums, and comment sections:

What Other Deep Cuts Should GN’R Bring Back on This Tour?

If they’re willing to go this deep, there’s a treasure chest of forgotten tracks begging for a second life. Here are the top fan-favorites people are begging for:

Coma” The 10-Minute Monster

Performed rarely and always with intensity, “Coma” is one of GN’R’s most ambitious songs. Fans worship it. Critics respect it. And Axl has called it one of the hardest songs he’s ever written.

If GN’R wants another seismic moment, bringing back “Coma” would be nuclear-level hype.

Locomotive” The Groove That Won’t Quit

This is one of the funkiest, most rhythmically badass songs in their entire catalog. They resurrected it briefly a few years ago, but fans want it in permanent rotation. Imagine Slash and Duff locking in on that filthy groove again — instant tour highlight.

Perfect Crime” Chaos in Musical Form

Fast, aggressive, unhinged “Perfect Crime” is pure adrenaline. If the band wants to prove they still have their dangerous edge, this is the one to unleash.

Don’t Damn Me”A Song Axl Has NEVER Played Live

This is the Holy Grail of GN’R deep cuts.

Axl himself once said the lyrics were so personal that he couldn’t imagine performing them. But the world has changed, the band has evolved, and fans are hoping this is the tour where the impossible becomes real.

If GN’R ever performs “Don’t Damn Me,” the internet will melt.

Bad Apples The Funky Underdog

Fans have begged for this one for decades. It’s weird. It’s groovy. It’s different. And it would absolutely explode a crowd hearing it live today.

If they resurrect one forgotten track this tour, why not another?

So Fine” Duff’s Hidden Gem

Duff doesn’t get enough spotlight, and this track is pure Duff energy punk spirit, soulful delivery, and underrated brilliance. It deserves a comeback.

“14 Years” A Fan-Favorite With History

This one hits differently because it’s tied to Axl and Izzy’s friendship. Every time it comes back, it feels like a little piece of GN’R history steps onto the stage again.

This Tour Could Become Legendary If GN’R Keeps Taking These Risks

Every band has hits. Every band has staples. But not every band has the guts to dust off 35-year-old songs and throw them into massive festival crowds.

Guns N’ Roses did.

And in doing so, they sent one message loud and clear:

This tour isn’t about replaying the past it’s about rewriting it.

If they keep diving into the deep cuts, this could go down as one of the most unpredictable, fan-pleasing, and historic GN’R tours of all time.

So Tell Us What Deep Cuts Do YOU Want to Hear?

Now that GN’R have cracked open the vault, the possibilities are endless.

Do you want the aggression of “Perfect Crime”?

The emotional punch of “Coma”?

The impossible dream of “Don’t Damn Me”?

Drop your picks because with this band, dreams might actually come true.
