Guns N’ Roses Debut New York Dolls Cover Live in Abu Dhabi

News summary

Guns N' Roses performed the New York Dolls' song "Human Being" live for the first time ever during their May 27 concert at the Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi, marking a tribute to the late David Johansen, the New York Dolls' frontman who passed away earlier this year. The song originally appeared on Guns N' Roses' 1993 covers album "The Spaghetti Incident?" but had never been played live until this show, showcasing the band's respect for their punk rock influences. Alongside "Human Being," the band also debuted other covers such as the Misfits' "Attitude" and their own track "Used to Love Her," the latter performed live for the first time since 2018. The performance featured Axl Rose singing "Human Being" in a lower register, which fans praised for its fresh take. This concert is part of their ongoing "Because What You Want & What You Get Are Two Completely Different Things" tour, which includes 31 songs and showcases both classic hits and thoughtful covers. The tour features new drummer Isaac Carpenter and continues through Europe until the end of July.
