If Axl wants to have an impressive record, he doesn't need Rhiad or Silkworms. Even Chinese Democracy seems to lack. It's not a filler but it would fit better if the album was just after the illusions.

I like madagascar but I also feel if this was the direction CD was headed or is headed and it had this type of calibur songs on it I would say the wait wasn't worth it... On the other hand if the album had come out 3 years after it was first mentioned then I would have a change of heart..

I thought at the MTV awards it seemed a little more up tempo-starting with Dizzy's playing at the beginning-that could be me, though-Axl singing "Free the ball, the chain we built together" Before the middle of the song, and I think Fortus was a huge difference-he is awsome on Maddy-he's just way better than Paul Huge, nothing against Paul.

I could be wrong about the lyrics-also hearing it live in concert, you hear the drum loop they use a lot better than watching it on tv-it will be interesting to hear the studio version of it.

Really the only differences are more strings/synths, and Richard's guitars, which have been awesome...

How about the complete solo overhaul? Rio's solo is completely different from the 2002 boots.

Let's say from Rio to Boston 02.
More strings/Synths as it's been pointed out already,and Axl's voice.
Fortus rips those guitars in there better than Paul ever did as well.

It did yeah. Personally i much prefer Rio's solo. Has more "direction" if that makes sense. Sometimes when i listen to the 2002 solo i feel like it's just wandering. I guess Axl wanted the quotes to appear more prominent, so he asked for a less noticeable solo or something.

I know what you mean with the solo. At Rio, Bucket's solo was soulful, but in '02, it almost sounded like he was just hitting random notes sometimes...

Those quotes are kind of ridiculous, they take away from the song.

I found the one he did in Leeds to be very, very beautiful....

That's what I want to hear the most, I think I'll die when I hear the final version of Madagascar.

He did play some good solos, but on the whole, I found them to be very shallow and random. There's something special about his Rio solo...

IMO they are the essence of the song. What makes it stand out. I respect the fact that they probably aren't for everyone though.

Maybe it's different in every boot, the Cleveland show is the one I've heard, maybe it's much better at other events.
