Welcome to the jungle, Milwaukee.

Guns N’ Roses had added a local stop to its “Not In This Lifetime Tour,” with a show at the BMO Harris Bradley Center Nov. 7.

“Lifetime” is the top-selling tour of the year, its title a reference to the unlikely reunion of Guns’ frontman Axl Rose (left) with its lead guitarist Slash, who along with founding bassist Duff McKagan, returned to the fold last year.

Tickets for the Milwaukee show are $59.50 to $250, available beginning at 10 a.m. July 28 at the Bradley Center box office (1001 N. 4th St.), by calling (800) 745-3000 or visiting
