Guns N' Roses is one of many bands taking part in "Back To The Beginning" on July 5. The show will see some of the biggest names in heavy metal and hard rock cover Black Sabbath in honor of their final performance. There's a chance we know which Sabbath song GN'R will be performing.
According to a Facebook post from fan site SFP Magazine, Guns N' Roses rehearsed "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath" during soundcheck before their July 2 show in Norway.
Back in February, Sharon Osbourne told NME that fans will see "one icon playing with another icon, doing a Sabbath song and one or two of their own songs."
