DUFF MCKAGAN: I Love AXL ROSE - Feb. 17, 2009
« on: February 17, 2009, 06:20:54 PM »
RollingStone.com conducted a brief interview with bassist Duff McKagan (VELVET REVOLVER, DUFF MCKAGAN'S LOADED, ex-GUNS N' ROSES) last week. A couple of excerpts follow below.

On a possible GUNS N' ROSES reunion:

"People ask me that all the time. I certainly don't sit here and go, 'God, I wish that's going to happen.' I don't even know what's going to happen in four weeks from now in my life so I'm not going to be one of those guys who's like, 'Fuck that, that'll never happen.' It could very well happen. It would have to be right and it would have to be righteous for everybody and for the fans and it would have to be like a kick-ass thing or it would just kind of be sour, I think... I mean, I love Axl [Rose]. We've been through a lot of shit together and shit nobody can take away from us no matter what people try to make of a squabble."

On former GUNS N' ROSES drummer Steven Adler taking part in the VH1 "reality" shows "Celebrity Rehab" and "Sober House":

"I watched about four minutes... somebody said, 'Dude, you got to watch this thing.' It was too hard for me to watch. My stomach started getting queasy and I couldn't watch it. It seems a little dirty, the whole deal. I know the Dr. Drew guy, and he is a strong member of the sober community and he's helped a lot of people and I think his thing is, 'Hey man, if one person can get sober out of this whole experience... great.' I'll put it this way: if I was still using, I would never go on that show. I don't get it. I just don't like reality TV."

1. I guess he didn't read what Axl had to say about a reunion
2. I totally agree, I find those sober house/ celebrity rehab shows absolutely disgusting
IT IS REALLY HAPPENING!

Good read regardless, Duff's a top man.

Duff is such a cutie... I remember one time trying to find Axl ..
My friend saw Duff in 3 Rivers after the show and my friend asked
"Where is Axl"  and Duff replied " I am going to make t-shirts
"I don't know where Axl is"

i actually think that what Duff said makes more sense.

i mean, how does Axl know now in 2009, that they (he & Slash) wont sort things out in maybe 10 years?

what Duff said was basicly "i can not see in the future, so i have no idea if we'll reunite or not" and that is true with everyone.

He was joking...
This is cool, Duff's a class act, but there still wont be a renunion. Maybe a song with Axl and Duff but not a reunion.

heres what I know, Both Izzy and Duff had basically stated in interviews they would be up for a reunion, or at the very least to do a few shows together. The only two members who wouldn't be likely are Slash and Matt Sorum, who we all know does what Slash tells him to  :tongue:   Izzy has already done a few guest songs with Axl Rose on the 2006 tour, and even when Izzy orginally quit he and Axl remained good friends and Duff was always Pro Axl. So I could see a Axl Rose/Duff Mckagan/Izzy Stradlin reunion, but not the whole one. But that would be an awesome show for sure  :nod:
