Ninjapie24 Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 With all the hype the general has gotten, I’m expecting a virtuosic 25 minute epic with full orchestra and choir along the lines of Octavarium. Knowing the band, we will probably get a 2 and a half minute half decent straight forward rock song. Not that I have a problem with it, but there is no way it can live up to expectations 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlashisGOD Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Would be nice to get Perhaps, Atlas, and The General all at once in an EP. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stro Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Part of that riff was definitely played in one of the soundcheck vids Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunnerfucker Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Now that the technology is there, maybe Axl could lay down vocals and IA them to sound like 1993 :P 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps is a fun track, but a weak single. The soundcheck from yesterday shows it’s still very much the same song as the Village Leak too. If the idea is for an upcoming release to sell tickets in the US, they’ll need to drop something like this, all at once, for sure.

I'm saying soundchecked a few more times throughout Europe, massive opening night thread on here with the usual disappointment then it gets played at a random show finally, about 3 or 4 shows in to the leg. This is exactly what I’d say happens. Then if they do a 2nd single it’ll be like 2 shows away from the end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UYI4 Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 I’ve said for months I thought June 30th would be first. So I’m anticipating Friday. But wouldn’t be surprised if it doesn’t happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kanecrescente Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 6 hours ago, Voodoochild said: I don't get this "Pele was right" trend going on. Did anyone here actually think that Perhaps would have a lot of different vocals? And how does The General fit on this, since it wasn't recorded in 1999? Pele didn't came up with the idea that those Village tracks would reappear with the same vocals - that's basically what happened throughout the CD album. And why would Axl rerecord the vocals anyways? Again, as many already said, Pele wasn't entirely wrong, but wasn't entirely right either. He just used common sense to try to pass it as he was some sort of an insider. And he did that in every single thread, regardless if it was about new songs or not. That's just spam in my books. It's moreso the fact that they got banned off here for ultimately being correct in how GNR would evolve over the coming years. Plus, it's always fun to stir the pot here and there 🤷🏻♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick85 Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 (edited) If they’re not dropping the entire EP at once, it’d be awfully cool if they threw everyone for a loop and dropped The General first. Edited June 28, 2023 by sofine11 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mods wiped away his posts in the RIP Taylor thread, so the evidence is gone. That said, they were probably getting sick of his shit anyways and just waiting for any valid reason to ban him. 1 minute ago, sofine11 said: If they’re not dropping the entire EP at once, it’d be awfully cool if they threw everyone for a loop and dropped The General first.

betterman Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 What do we think of credits for perhaps Piano- Axl (or Dizzy?) Guitars - Fortus and Slash. Slash solo Bass - Duff Keys - dizzy/Melissa Drums- Frank? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokingarthur Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 At Epcot currently riding The Land as I’m writing this. I see a lot of youths wearing GNR shirts. More than I’ve noticed in the past. It’s the right time to drop a single NOW. For fucks sake…. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rocknroll41 Posted June 28, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 28, 2023 I just realized something… Back when they were teasing us with Hard Skool soundchecks for two years I kept saying on here for every show “come on Axl, hard school me in the ass tonight.” Do I need to do something similar for Perhaps? In order to will it into existence? If so: Come on Axl, Perhaps me in this ass this Friday night. 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time there was anything major, like the leaks and the last 2 singles, I was out of town and did not discover until later in the weekend. I'm going out of town this weekend, so fingers crossed. If one of the singles is released, you're welcome! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
