Guns N’ Roses have extended their Not In This Lifetime tour with the addition of 10 dates in Latin America, which take place in October and November.

The appearances come after the initial run of full-scale shows featuring Axl Rose’s reunion with Slash and Duff McKagan, which began in June and ends next month.

So far, the tour has featured two guest appearances from original drummer Steven Adler – plus controversy over crew reaction to a poster querying the absence of guitarist Izzy Stradlin.

Promoters Live Nation last week insisted the tour had been “an unqualified success” even though some shows on the initial leg had not sold out.

Slash recently reported that the reunion had left the band with blown minds, admitting: “We were all pretty positive that it would never happen.”

Tickets for the Latin American dates go on sale soon. Guns N’ Roses are thought to be in the running to appear at next year’s Download and Glastonbury festivals in the UK.

The newly announced dates can be found in bold below.
