“This is what can happen when you do something you haven’t done in nearly over 23 years,” writes Rose on Twitter. He also posted a video in which his orthopedic surgeon describes the singer’s injury and shares x-rays of his foot. The doctor also explains that tour will undergo a few stage modifications to accommodate Rose’s injury.

A statement from GNR’s rep reads, “Of course the show will go on!”

After tonight’s show, Guns N’ Roses are scheduled to play Las Vegas again on Saturday night. Next week, the band is scheduled to headline Coachella. They have also announced a U.S. stadium tour for the summer.
