A new song ‘Absurd’ was released in August. It is the first new Guns N Roses song to feature Slash and Duff McLagan since the 1994 cover of ‘Sympathy for the Devil’.
‘Absurd’ was a song originally called ‘Silkworms’. It was recorded but not used on the ‘Chinese Democracy’ album of 2008 and as ‘Silkworms’ was performed four times by Axl’s non-Slash edition of Guns N Roses. Guns N Roses have played it in each show in their current tour.

Meanwhile tickets for Guns N Roses Australian shows for November are still on sale despite no chance of them happening in Australia this year. With new Covid rules in place and a timeline for Australia to come out of lockdown, Australia will not be open for the scheduled 6 November start of the tour in Queensland, nor will Australia be able to accommodate any of these dates in 2021.
The Australian Guns N Roses tour will be rescheduled. However, no official word has been given as to when fans can expect the new dates.
