Nine-Year-Old Girl Sings With Guns N’ Roses During Las Vegas Soundcheck

Chris McKay, Getty Images The Guns N’ Roses Las Vegas residency was cool as it was, but it got a little cooler this past week for one very young fan. Video footage has surfaced of the band welcoming a nine-year-old girl named Chloe, who lent her vocals to the band’s ‘Catcher in the Rye’ while the band soundchecked for their Nov. 21st performance. The clip, with low quality audio, can be seen below. The band’s Las Vegas run has widely been regarded as a success, with the group crafting their own set lists exclusively for each show. In addition to young Chloe’s pre-show guest appearance, the Nov. 21 date proved special for another reason. Guns N’ Roses reportedly taped part of the show in 3D , presumably for a future concert video release. During the epic performance, the band rocked through many of their classics, along with covering Pink Floyd ‘s ‘Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2)’ and Neil Young ‘s ‘Don’t Let It Bring You Down.’ The band’s 12-date residency closed out last night (Nov. 24) at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas.

Guns N’ Roses Film Vegas ‘Appetite for Democracy’ Residency Show in 3D

Theo Wargo, Getty Images Guns N’ Roses are gearing up to close out their 12-show ‘Appetite for Democracy’ residency at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas this weekend (Nov. 24.) For fans that weren’t able to make it out to one of the special shows, there may still be a way to check it out in the near future, thanks to modern technology. According to a tweet from the band , the concert on Wednesday, Nov. 21 was recorded as part of a special 3D taping, presumably for a future release. Known for their lengthy shows, Guns N’ Roses did not disappoint on this particular night. The set list was a monstrous, 30-plus song rock-a-thon featuring all the usual suspects from ‘Welcome to the Jungle,’ ‘Mr. Brownstone,’ and ‘Sweet Child O’Mine’ to covers like Pink Floyd’s ‘Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2)’ and Neil Young’s ‘Don’t Let It Bring You Down.’ A fan posted detailed listing of the set list and all the solos can be seen here . Although the band hasn’t commented on the plans for the 3D taping yet, they were already checking out the footage the following day, posting a tweet with a photo of the different camera angles, saying, “3D 2D looks like 10 cameras on this Street Of Dreams.” Guns N’ Roses are the second rock band to take up residency at the Hard Rock Hotel, following in the footsteps of Motley Crue who broke ground on the concept last February. Def Leppard also recently announced that they’ll be the next band to move into the Strip with a run in 2013.
