Definitively one of my favorites acts of the Festival. Huge show" - Ronaldo Nazario de Lima
And when the music is over?Guns N? Roses will still be making a difference as the band will be sponsoring a child through the CHILDREACH PLAN , the designated charity of the ROCK IN RIO -LISBON FESTIVAL 2004..
As Rock in Rio ? Lisbon and Guns N? Roses prove, music can help make a better world?.
