Axl Rose 
Being the founding member of the band, Axl Rose (left) and his long locks have been synonymous with the band since they formed in 1985. While his long blonde hair may have been replaced by a shorter crop, the vocalist and songwriter has been the only constant member of the band since then and continues to deliver an immersive performance

Slash 
While Slash wasn't present in 2012, many fans are excited to see him perform in Mumbai this time around. Regarded as one of the best in the world, the lead guitarist of the American rock band is known for his exceptional work with the band including his guitar riff on 'Sweet Child o' Mine'

Michael Andrew McKagan aka Duff McKagan
The band will also see Michael Andrew McKagan, popularly known as Duff McKagan, who rejoined the band in the last 10 years, play the bass, and help many Indian fans enjoy his unique guitar skills coupled with Axl Rose's voice and Slash's riffs to make it a true early GnR experience

Darren Arthur Reed aka Dizzy Reed
Being one of the constants of Guns N' Roses, Darren Arthur Reed, popularly known as Dizzy Reed, has been the keyboardist with the American band since 1990. While Axl Rose is known for his piano skills, Reed is an irreplacable member of the band

Richard Fortus 
Being one of the other longest-serving members of the band since 2002, along with Axl Rose, fans will be looking forward to Fortus playing the rhythm guitar as well as the occasional lead guitar, and recorded music with the band for the 2008 album 'Chinese Democracy'

Melissa Reese 
Joining the band in 2016, Melissa Reese is the first female member and has been with the band ever since then as their keyboardist replacing their then-keyboardist and multi-instrumentalist Chris Pitman. While being the keyboardist, she also lends her talents with the synthesiser and all electronic sounds
