Welcome back to the jungle.
After announcing a reunion at this month's Coachella music festival in Indio, Calif., Guns N' Roses have plotted a sprawling summer tour. The Not in This Lifetime Tour, which the band unveiled in a Facebook video Friday, kicks off June 23 in Detroit, hitting 21 cities across North America through late August.
But original band members Axl Rose, Slash and Duff McKagan haven't been onstage together since July 1993, so a warm-up gig was clearly called for.
So on Friday, they put on an intimate show at L.A.'s famed Troubadour club, for which fans spent hours in line in order to score tickets. Cameras were banned at the show, but then again, GnR fans never were the obedient sort. So a few posted footage of the event, which seemed downright impossible 20 years ago after the band's acrimonious dissolution.
Rolling Stone got a hold of the set list, which included Welcome to the Jungle, Sweet Child O'Mine, Welcome to the Jungle, Mr. Brownstone, You Could Be Mine and Paradise City. Chinese Democracy, the title track from their long-delayed sixth album of the same name made the cut, as did their cover of Bob Dylan's Knocking On Heaven's Door.
Pre-sale tickets became available Saturday morning before being made available to the general public April 8. For a full list of dates, visit gunsnroses.com.
