Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose celebrates his 50th birthday today (February 6).

The singer has announced details of a six-date club tour in the USA, including three dates in New York .

According to MTV, Axl will be the only original member of the group to tour under the Guns N' Roses names, with relationships strained between former guitarist Slash and bassist Duff Mckagan.

Has Axl Rose still got it at 50?! Since the release of 'Chinese Democracy' in 2008 live shows have been greeted by a mixture of delight and disappointment (can we remember their headline slot at Reading at Leeds).

To wish Axl Rose a happy 50th birthday, Gigwise wants you to pick your favourite Guns N' Roses track!
