Guns N’ Roses performed their new single 'Maybe’ for the first time.
The band performed music following the release on Friday (August 18) at PNC Park in Pittsburgh. You can watch the footage below.
„Forgive me if I’m not running around and trying to plan too much because I’m trying to figure out how to sing it live,” said frontman Axel Ross as he introduced the track. „I like to think that when we wrote this song it was like a pristine beginning.”
’Perhaps’ was said to release on August 11, but was delayed due to unknown reasons at the time of release. Before the delay, a link briefly appeared on Universal Music’s website, allowing eager fans to pre-order the track on Spotify and Apple Music.
However, fans were able to hear it the next day (August 12) through an accidental leak at bars in the US. The track was made available on TouchTunes digital jukebox machines across the United States, complete with its potential artwork.
A 7-inch vinyl version of 'Perhaps’ has been announced and will be released on October 23 alongside B-side 'The General’. Pre-orders are available Here.
The track, taken from the band’s 'Chinese Democracy’ era, marks the band’s first release since their four-song EP 'Hard School’ back in February last year. The EP was available exclusively on the band’s official store and featured two new tracks they had released the previous year – 'Absurd’ and 'Hard School’ – as well as live versions of 'Don’t Cry’ and 'You’re Crazy’.
Rose and Co. Earlier this year, fans waiting to see the band in Tel Aviv heard them rehearsing 'Maybe’ before the show, bringing the song back for an official release.
The band recently headlined Glastonbury. In a three-star review, NME The set was described as „one of their strongest sets in recent years”, but received a poor response as it was delivered to the „wrong crowd”.
