Snoop Dogg To Open For Guns N' Roses In Miami

Now, it's been announced fans at G'N'R's Miami show will see the band with a very able -- if unorthodox -- opening act: Snoop Dogg.

The hip-hop legend and weed guru will perform with Guns at the AmericanAirlines Arena in Miami on January 31. The band announced this line-up addition via Twitter, using an extra-leafy graphic to advertise it:

Tickets for this meeting of Mary Jane and Mr. Brownstone are currently available for purchase.
