The 11-date tour started on Sunday in Brasilia. They will play on April 1 in Quito, Ecuador. In addition, they will drop by Uruguay, Chile, Peru, Venezuela and Colombia as well.

Guns N’ Roses previously played three secret shows — two in New York City and one in London.

Rock Band fans can get their hands on Guns N’ Roses latest album next week, as Harmonix today announced that Chinese Democracy flies it way into the digital store next week.

Maybe Rose is a better way to describe the group, seeing as Axl Rose is the only returning original band member featured on this latest offering.‚  Either way, the album took 13 long, hard fought years to record and is hoping to penetrate a new audience with Rock Band treatment.

The album in its entirety is next week’s DLC:

Chinese Democracy
Better
Street of Dreams
If the World
There Was a Time
Catcher in the Rye
Scraped
Riad N’ the Bedouins

Electronic Arts announced Tuesday that the Guns N’ Roses song Paradise City will top the stacked playlist in the upcoming Burnout Paradise for Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.

“The music propels the game into high speed action with forty major artists including Alice in Chains, Jane’s Addiction, Soundgarden, Twisted Sister, Jimmy Eat World and N.E.R.D., as well as rising stars Airbourne, Jupiter One and Junkie XL who have been signed to EA’s own music label, Artwerk,” EA said in a statement Tuesday.

“Burnout is one of the world’s most popular racing franchises and demands a soundtrack that matches the game’s intensity at every level. We believe we’ve crafted a truly volatile mix of rock’s most dangerous tracks — beginning with the iconic ‘Paradise City’ — for an audio fuel as explosive as the game itself,” said Steve Schnur, worldwide executive of music and music marketing at EA.

The open world racing title is coming January 22.
