In case you missed it, Guns N' Roses is back. 

On April 1, the rock band announced a surprise show at famed Los Angeles venue the Troubadour. Though that date is notorious for pranks, this wasn't a joke at all. 

About 500 lucky fans were able to scoop tickets to the intimate show, which kicked off the band's Not In This Lifetime tour (which will also make a pit stop at this year's Coachella). Cameras were forbidden, but that didn't stop intrepid audience members with an appetite for destruc-- er, documentation.
