I have said it before and I will say it again, I get if people prefer the CD era guitarists more on CD era stuff, but some of the negative assessments Slash as a guitar player since 2016 gets both on the released studio stuff and CD era stuff I find to be very overdramatic - and overall have found his takes enjoyable.  

Things like his Perhaps solo or the live Better solo I find fine and don't think the hate matches what he is actually doing but that's just me

We might not be on the same page with my 2nd statement below,

but these are the same people who probably never complained when finck was altering the november rain solo

which to me sounds like he butchered that.

It must be painful for Axl, who has probably painstakingly perfected these songs over decades, to have Slash shit out guitar work and paste them into the mixes. Maybe Axl cares less, because he has the golden mixes with Buckethead and Robin slated for a special release, or just for his own personal enjoyment. 

Yeah, the asshole keeps on releasing tracks that has Slash on it who has the audacity to tour with the band since 2016! Grrrrr! It pisses me off when a band don't release songs that feature guitarists who has quit for more than a decade ago!

PS Where's Ashba when you need him! 

should we be watching out for either of these in a few days?

Axl when this song leaks one or two days before release: who would do this... to me? To me? To me?

Awesome setlist, I wonder how Axl sounds on TIL in the encore.

But at least we will have The General

It seems like one dude made a deal with the devil and was asked if The General or a new full album with a completely new set of songs. And the fucker chose The General.

Y'all think The General is the song Richard was talking about where he uses a sitar effect pedal?

Didn't the band followed Rick Rubin somewhere on social media when the reunion began? Always thought that was a "we'll have a use for you soon, just stay there for now"

But with GN'R soon is the goddamn fucking word.

Haven't been following shows, Axl doesn't seem to struggle on the Perhaps chorus here.

Slash's dick and balls package are like the CD leftovers, released piece by piece.

Glad I didn't catch that soundcloud clip. I wanna hear this fresh with no idea how it really goes, aside from the orchestra intro they used to open with.

No, but he played the intro. That’s my point. 

Are we sure it's Bucket though? With Richard's kill-switch guitars I'm certain he could've just done that or it could even be Melissa's synth.

two band members barely anybody knows who they are having no effect on ticket sales

geez I wasn't the one who suggested Axl/TB bringing in finck and bucket lol

Not nessecarily. A smaller venue tour like Up Close and Personal would be my bet for the next tour. 

I don't think this "money grabbing machine" would settle for a series of intimate shows.

Imagine them taking a break and then coming back on tour without new music. They better bring in Izzy and Steven full time if they wanna sell shows by then.

Is it?! 

Attention seekers making wide eyed, over the top, exaggerated reactions serves what purpose? I'm utterly confused as to why anyone would spend any time watching that sort of thing. 

Enlighten me! 

As much attention they're seeking, the band/song is also getting attention from people who might not be in the reach of the band recently. For them to see that GN'R has a new song out, I think it gives the song more recognition to the "non-diehards". 

Think of an old neighbor who used to rock in their younger days or kids who have heard of gn'r or saw them in shirts, and they see "Guns N' Roses - Perhaps, New Song Reaction!" on youtube.

It could either be good and bad, but it brings eyes and ears to the band.

PS. I don't give a flying f*** about how they overly react in their videos though, I'm after how these randos think of the band's sound. Like do they think like us here in mygnr or do they try to play it cool like they're expert music critics (I usually stop watching when they try to act cool... perhaps they're being too hard skool (pun intended)).

So cool to see the song getting attention to youtube "Reaction" content creators

Will there be news if it gets in the billboard charts next week? 

the best thing to do is they debut this tomorrow after Perhaps and not say a goddamn thing until it's over, "so that was another new song it's called The General"

Is it just me or is the majority of Twitter posts overwhelmingly positive with GNR's Perhaps right now?

Feels like more hype than Hardskool, which is crazy considering this is CD era. Awesome

Maybe the radio premiere yesterday did its work.

Not trying to kill the mood, but let’s not expect too much if it’s selected as the B-side to Perhaps. 

it says Side R on the site so...

Written and recorded by Axl Rose, Slash, and Duff McKagan this year,

I call BS on written & this year, but fuck it I'll let them have that hahahahaha

They're doing right by me this time. Music video for perhaps, the general is imminent. Haven't said this in a really long time, but I love Guns N' Fucking Roses!

EDIT: is it just me or is the mix in the MV so much better than the official audio? Slash's guitar is louder into the solo.
