During their Friday (8.18) concert at Pittsburgh’s PNC Park, Guns N’ Roses performed “Perhaps” live, just hours after the track’s formal release.
“Forgive me if I don’t run around and try to project as much because I’m gonna try to figure out how to fucking sing it live,” warned Axl Rose. “I like to think of when we wrote this song it was like the immaculate inception,” subsequent to which GNR launched into the song which is the semi-reunited band’s first new music since their 2021 singles “Absurd” and “Hard Skool.”
Following its accidental leak via digital jukeboxes last weekend, “Perhaps” officially arrived Friday (8.18,). Though it’s credited as being created with the input of the iconic rockers’ core trio of Rose, Slash, and McKagan, the single’s roots are based in the sessions for Chinese Democracy; an early version of the song that has long-circulated among bootleggers.
In addition to “Perhaps” Rose and company have confirmed that the 7″ single (arriving 10.26 in vinyl form,) will be backed by “The General,” another new recording with roots in the Chinese Democracy sessions as well.
