thats pretty cool news...wonder why they choose now to let that tidbit slip?

If that's the General, it sounds like a stupid, extraneous intro, like the first minute of Chinese Democracy. Casuals would lose interest.

The General definitely had orchestration as confirmed by Beltrami years ago.

"[GNR] was sort of just work for hire. [...] I met with Axl and he played me these songs, asked me my ideas about them, and I told him what I thought they needed. They gave me four songs to orchestrate. [...] A song called 'Seven,' which is the one [...] I actually wrote a guitar part [on]. There was one called 'Thyme,' one called 'The General,' one called 'Leave Me Alone.'" (Marco Beltrami, IGN, 07/20/03)

Good idea Madagas....here is Everything we know about "The General" so far

Lucky for me then, that my taste in music does not rely on casuals.

I wonder if they let it slip because they're ready to play the full version with vocals in the tour.

what tour? The tour is over on the 16th...no more dates scheduled. I'll believe a US tour when the promoters start selling tix AND it goes on Gnr's facebook/myspace pages. Until then.....Merry XMAS and Happy New Year.

I remember that music was cool and very "epic" sounding live. Much like from a film or something, but it totally worked to build anticipation.

Can't wait to hear the full version.

Prostitute as a intro to November Rain:

I can't find If The World though.

There is no intro I found the whole show on youtube, but I am not sure if it's Prostitute. Doesn't sound like that.

Here's one with an intro.  I was really stoked to hear it in prostitute because I always loved it.
