Apparently last night before playing Madagascar Axl said that "Madagascar" was actually written 14 years ago, during the UYI tours.

Is that true that he actually said that? if so what does it mean....he came up with the riff on the piano then? It was written lyrically? did Slash, Duff, Gilby, Dizzy, Matt have a hand in composing it?

ok...I guess Matt is a joke to everybody

fact is he did all the drum parts for the UYI records and y'all love 'em....this was supposed to be a serious question Undecided

i find it intriguing as to the direction that the band was taking during that time...was this song worked on during the time right before Slash quit? Like when izzy came back breifly/

Why the hell had these idiots ruin this thread by "laughing" at a retarded Matt joke?
I find it intresting that It would've been writtend during the UYI days... maybe some of the "new" stuff is also written then?

Maybe it was all written then. It's the tinkering that goes on to this day.

You're the type of fan that if Matt came back would be saying: "Oh I always loved Matt."
Same with the Slash haters on here. 
You can not deny the intrigual part that Slash, Duff, Matt, Steven, Izzy etc... played in Guns N' Roses and in Axl's success.
  I am sick of the Buckethead is better than Slash, or Brain is better than Matt. 
Where does all this animosity towards Slash and the ex's come from? 
Just because Slash left the band, doesn't mean you can't wish him well and be thankful for what he did to craft GNR.

  If Slash is the biggest asshole in the world, fine!  But Axl isn't so squeky clean either. 


as for Maddy....
The song does fit with the Estranged, Coma and Locomotive style GNR seemed to be approaching back during the UYI days

I didn't hear him say it was written the UYI era.
He didn't really talk about the song.

He did some really good work, but he's still a joke.

Yeah, I don't think he said anything like this. There was no intro to Madagascar from what I remember.
