The iconic rock band Guns N’ Roses was scheduled to perform on 11th October at Chase Field in downtown Phoenix. However, due to Thursday’s baseball game outcome, they had to be flexible with their event planning. A bittersweet event for fans indeed.

Since the D-Backs now require the ballpark for the night’s game, they had to politely request the band who had announced their world tour in February to make amends. Quite cooperatively, Guns N’ Roses ended up moving their concert to a different venue, Talking Stick Resort Amphitheater. The concert will go on as planned on the same date, October 11. With that, Guns N’ Roses left a sweet message for D-Backs, ‘So Fine’.
