bacardimayne Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 I didn't care much for the intro and calling it "The General" won't make me care any more for it until I hear the actual song.Cool though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManetsBR Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 Dudecqd: Axl, coudl you tells us more about "The General"?Axl: You may have heard parts of it somewhere.AHAAAAAA.Okay now I am intrigued, I think someone said it was from a film like The Exorcist or something, but that may just be the voiceover that happened at RIR 2001Yeah. I remember a thread at HTGTH about the intros, and the guy listed the intro, and there was one that he said "I think this was made by GNR or to GNR" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been speculated for a while that the jams, intros, etc. are snippets of unreleased songs ala "Prostitute" in 06. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me that intro sounds like a very slowed down IRS or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangit Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 i've thought this for a long while! Axl could have been referring to 'checkmate' but the intro music is so cool, would make an excellent part of an epic song! Hoping for more music in 2011!

Hoping for more music in 2011!I think Checkmate is so normal...The concert intro is much more epic, I'm glad THAT is The General. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bacardimayne Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 If this proves anything, it's that the so-called hoarders are full of shit.Not a single one of them who claims to have "The General" has ever come out and said "the show intro is from this song".

Movie soundtrack, or anything?And I think that this indeed proves that people who once claimed to have The General are full of shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bacardimayne Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 (edited) Honestly though it sounds more like the soundtrack to Luigi's Mansion than a GNR song. I'm still doubting the authenticity of this.Maybe it's like the intro to CD, who knows. Edited December 12, 2010 by bacardimayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is not sarcasm then this means that the "hoarders" don't have anything, which is what I thought for a long time.Not necessarily. What if the hoarders have an earlier version of the song without the intro? Kinda like how Riad had the added intro in the final version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am willing to bet that the hoarders are full of shit because everything points to it and now this is just one more thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
