In a clip from the stage shared on their Twitter feed, Guns N' Roses singer Axl Rose can be seen fronting the 50,000+ crowd in Athens with the stadium fully lit as Slash paces the foreground, finally thanking and waving to the sea of fans at the end.
Slash even thanked fans personally via his own social media accounts, saying the birthday tribute was "a perfect send off" that he'll always remember.
The Athens date marked GN'R's last in Europe before heading overseas to Canada to begin their North American run through October 16. Check out the full list of dates and grab your tickets HERE.
