Afterward, Carrie teased, ““Did you think we were through?” as her band broken into a rendition of “Paradise City.”

As Axl left the stage, Carrie joked “I can’t believe we thought we should have more songs after this!” Carrie also performed two new songs off of her upcoming album, the title track “Denim and Rhinestones” and “Crazy Angels,” along with the previously performed lead single, “Ghost Story.” The new album is due out on June 10.
