I have listened to it a few times and to me the song sounds less like November Rain and more like a Chinese Democracy track!

Do you know who is the guy in the middle? Is he by any chance Buck Dharma from Blue Oyster Cult? Is he going to play too?

Love Andy McCoy's / Pelle Miljoona Oy version of their track Don't Fear the Reaper
