Guns N' Roses has announced two shows at the new T-Mobile Arena on the Las Vegas Strip.

According to Billboard.com, fans were overjoyed when it was announced that Guns N' Roses and its original members -- Axl Rose, Slash and Duff McKagan -- would headline the Coachella Music & Arts Festival on April 16 and 23. But now it appears that they will perform in Las Vegas first on April 8 and 9.
 

This will be the first time that Rose-Slash-McKagan perform together since Buenos Aires in 1993. It is not clear if they will be joined by the other two founding members, guitarist Izzy Stradlin and drummer Steve Adler.

GNR is expected to follow the performances in Las Vegas and at Coachella in California with a stadium tour of North America this summer.

The arena is set to open April 6. Its first show will feature The Killers and Wayne Newton.
