GNR are unique and that's what has kept me coming back to this forum for what must be nearly 20 years. Ridiculous really! The leaks, the rumour, the mystery is what it's all about. Nice to get the occasional song actually released though but I haven't been on this forum so much for a long time.... When it does come out, the intrigue is gone. Enjoy it and stop arguing about nonsense. 👍 It's true. If they functioned like Metallica with a couple of mediocre albums out and everything being "normal" we all would probably not be here at all.

Normal artists have gigantic fanbases that argue about everything too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasn’t been soundchecked, the tour is close to wrapping up and we don’t have much time for another single. They have still two months of touring ahead.

alangarcianr Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Well according to that Ototoy Japanese site it will be released in 16 hours and a few minutes. It’s 7 in the morning in Japan so that means it will be released Friday 00HS in Japan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The General has never been soundchecked (to our knowledge). Maybe that bizarre clip from last summer was it but I really doubt it. At a minimum, they could plan to release it anyways without a live performance when the physical CD comes out, and just put the song on the setlist to be safe. But I’m not holding my breath. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that tour it was only a few months long so Hard Skool was roughly the intended 2/3rd point. However I think if they did another physical release they’ll want a second song so I won’t give up hope entirely. It could still happen just not holding my breath. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tour that was postponed due to Covid was two months later in Australia though, so I don't think it was relevant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
