I have also been wondering this.  I think it is most likely some sort of stock video.

GREAT video, I was in West Virginia as well.  I've got a pic of it somewhere, but its a nice start to the song for sure.

It's a guy rowing a boat during a red sunset. Looks like he has an Asian or Vietnamese hat on.

hey cool
thats it
thanks for posting it
and yes it is a awesome start to the song
would have been even cooler if they would have played that classical music that they play at the begining of the concert along with the weird chinese music while they showed that

When I saw them in Greensboro, this was one of my favorite songs that they performed. I used to somewhat dislike this song with the intro they had in 2002. But now with that buildup (while they show the guy on screen), and the tease (with the guitar intro), I love it!

I went to the show in Toronto, and that song was the most memorable for me.  LOVED the intro.  Hope it's like that on the album.

That video was really cool and I too thought it was their best new song when I went to see them in St-John.

Greensboro was a fuckn awesome show....seems to me like the best setlist of the tour so far. Baltimore was good with Down on the Farm, but Rocket Queen in NC.....Hell Yea !!!

I think it's awesome as hell, the 2006 version of CD has become one of my new favorite songs.

During the Trunk interview, Axl said he lived in China for a few months back in 2004 and filmed stuff while he was there.

The stuff on the screen might incorporate some of that footage.
