Guns N' Roses fans will have a big Use Your Illusion reissue to look forward to in the somewhat near future.

Slash shared this update in an interview with Biff Bam Pop! and said, "It got delayed by the pandemic but it is coming out, I think this summer."

As for what extras will be featured on the reissue, "There's a bunch of cool live stuff on it, a couple shows. The Ritz [in New York City] from the '90s, like early '90s, and a show that we did in Las Vegas back in 1989, I think it was. And it's actually the show that I met my ex-wife at, so I was really hard-pressed to even do the f---ing record."

When they were released in September 1991, Use Your Illusion I & II topped the Billboard 200 Album chart with Use Your Illusion II coming in at number one with 770,000 units sold in the first week and Use Your Illusion I coming in at number two with 685,000 units sold.
