    I love Duff bearing his soul. He’s an inspiration for people who know they need to change but haven’t quite put the wheels in motion.
  • @PaulSmith-zi3sn
    How can you not love Duff, what a story he has. So glad to see him at peace and happy !!
  • @steveharris1974
    You can't not like Duff, so glad he made it back from oblivion.

    I got to hang out with Duff for a couple minutes at a bar one night. Super nice, regular guy. He just came up to the bar and started talking to me, and I looked over and it was Duff. It was very difficult to not fanboy, but I held it together. 😅

    Duff and Sammy - two of the most genuine, down to earth guys in rock music
  • @elpistolas4485
    Duff McKagan singing makes me think about The Rolling Stones
  • @brandonjackson5865
    It’s pretty incredible all five original members are still alive and they’re all still playing. Adler is playing, don’t know what Izzy is up to but he’s probably writing and playing music.

    There wouldn't have been a GnR without Duff, he was the glue. He was instrumental in the reunion of Axl and Slash. Duff also played a huge role in Velvet Revolver, that band wouldn't have seen a 2nd album without him. He's the broker, keeps people together.

    Duff has an incredible nice voice as well. Even when he´s talking naturally just answering some question, it´s same voice as in when he´s singing. Really pleasant, mellow voice!
  • @kernowmaid5970
    Great interview. Love the song, love Duff, love Guns n Roses ❤️❤️❤️ chip away 😊

    One of the few old school punk rockers I still respect. Sure, Duff might not have been in any big bands during that time, but he was in influential ones. And he still seems cool, unlike other punks who have either turned against they stood for, or just become insufferable.

    Listening to these two gentlemen playing guitar and living their best life makes me happy. It looks like there’re in a happy place!
  • @FloydofOz
    I am not surprised Sammy Hagar has a Buck Owens guitar. He’s a man of taste and discernment.
  • @wcreview8227
    SOO Glad you turned it around Duff, I dont know you but I do know the world is a better place with you in it!!!
  • @charbarnett2567
    I have always been "in love" with Duff, ever since I saw them on the appetite tour, mad respect for his talent and music. Thank you for being you Duff ❤

    The bass on "Double Talking Jive" ....no words for that bass intro.
  • @robjgolde3221
    Duff is the single coolest living American rockstar IMO. Just a badass musician and performer, incredibly intelligent, inspiring story and redemption arc, and by all accounts, a really nice, humble guy.
