When I got into the GnR hype, it took me a while to understand that Duff McKagan deserves much more attention than he ever got. I like this guy so much. Great musician, and he seems like an honest , kind person :)

Well, as long as you don't see Fear live... I saw Fear open for the Misfits back in April and holy shit, they should have wrapped it up in the 80s. Honestly, it could have been one of the worst live performances I have ever seen. The entire crowd was like "Wtf is this...?" I talked to people around me and we all thought the same thing. The vocalist blamed it on the EQ and was bitching the entire time, but no, he just is not in his prime anymore.
Except him and two bodyguards tried to flip Kurt Cobain's trailer that had Courtney Love and their brand new baby and their bassist Krist... Thank God he didn't manage to get it flipped. Rumors he may have not known they were in there.... But who knows. I guess we were all young and really dumb at some point. GNR is one of my all time fav bands!
Duff seems like the most down to earth member to come out of Guns N' Roses. Always seems to show his love of music old and new. Some interest picks here.
Still my biggest rock star crush. Found a metal sign that had DF Kagan printed on it. Had it in my garden for years. Thanks for the fun. Glad you made it through
Back in '09 i was workin in a hotel behind harrods in london and duff was stayon there....when he was checking out,i was like 'i know this dude from somewhere' and it dawned on me that it was duff...he knew that i recognised him...he just winked n smiled
Such a cool 10 minutes with Duff. Getting "back into records" will open up a whole new dimension of music enjoyment, just holding the records in your hands is magical.
Gawd. This guy has been through so much. I've loved him since 1992 (age 8, when my mom put a GNR record on). For anyone who is interested in his story, I recommend warmly his autobiography. He has a lot to share.
Also the most guinine,interesting,stylish,has the most amazing stories & never seems 2 mind being interviewed &seems 2 sit &chat like he's just sat down with a mate...
Not a GNR fan, but love this guy! This feature is always at it's best when you learn something about the individual and their music choices. I feel like Duff needs his own show!
Yeah, I love those… I don't know what you'd call it, really, but those "snaky" licks he throws in to spice up the basslines. They're all over the Walking Papers records, and they immediately stood out to me on that new GN'R track Hard Skool, versus the original demo with Tommy Stinson on bass (no disrespect to Tommy Stinson, obvs).

Man I liked duff so much that in high school I payed my friends 20 bucks each to call me duff for the rest of the school year. 2005 was a different year ha ha.
I met Duff McKagan at Seatac airport in Washington state when he was going thru security, I was assisting passengers putting their belongings into the x-ray and he had his guitar case on the table, I didn't recognize him and started talking about music and collecting records with him, he was really cool, shook hands and introduced ourselves, I realized who he was latter, saw him a few more times there after, great guy.
This was fucken amazing... no wonder GnR was so fucken great ... they had great taste in music .. that’s what makes a great band ... when they really know their shit and know about the true artist who do it for the love/sake of music 🙌🏻🤘🏻
Duff holding a Fartz section card....classic. I worked in a cool record store in the early 80's in the U District. Kurt Bloch also worked there and had started the Fastbacks, Duff was the drummer. He also was the drummer in the Fartz.

He’s from Seattle and was one of the last people to see Cobain alive as they shared a flight ✈️ going back to Seattle from LA after Cobain escaped from Rehab. Cobain didn’t hate Duff like he hated Axl because of his attitudes. I always thought Duff and Slash were the best guys in GNR. And every time I hear him talk, he affirms to me that he’s a good guy. Thanks Amoeba! 👏🏻🎸😎 You’re a benevolent MicroOrganism! 🦠😂 Unlike Covid.👎🏻
Gotta love Duff...though we never did get married! He's a great guy with some really cool stories to tell! I mean, can you imagine the ones he hasn't even told yet?!

I get chills every time I watch the Paradise City video and see him when he was still 19 or 20. You could almost say he was adorable (for risk of sounding gay, lol). But, out of all the members, he was the most down to earth and polite ones. Right along with Slash. As a matter of fact, i'm gonna watch it right now!
Almost impossible to hate this man.
It's impossible
I am pretty sure I love him. I am a straight male, and I love him in a non romantic way
so true man, I can barely stand G'n'R but this dude is alright
@HMat unfortunately, many internet users dont need any reason to hate someone, including this awesome guy.
Duff has always been nothing but lovable
Duff was always the coolest member of GnR.
One-Eye only after Izzy quit.
Izzy stradlin
Nope...Izzy Straddlin WAS Guns n Roses. Period.
Duff and Izzy and Steven are solid dudes
I was always more of a Slash dude but Duff and Izzy are in the same boat, cool rock icons for sure

Duff, Izzy and Slash were the majic in that band
I feel the same way❤
Anyone who buys Minor Threat, Fear and Prince at the same trip to the record store is alright in my book
Platypusfuss: They grow 'em eclectic out there in Seattle.
The Mouth Dont Stop

internal who shot Mr body
It seems he is the most gentle and polite member from GNR. I have a lot of respect for him.
Except him and two bodyguards tried to flip Kurt Cobain's trailer that had Courtney Love and their brand new baby and their bassist Krist...
Thank God he didn't manage to get it flipped. Rumors he may have not known they were in there.... But who knows.
I guess we were all young and really dumb at some point.
GNR is one of my all time fav bands!
@@nicolecoldren5573 If the baby and bassist weren't in there, I would like him even more for trying to flip it over
Damn, the story of him and the 1999 record. That's true power of music.
Amen 💜
And then moved to LA and was in GNR. Talk about an LA Story
Maybe the best "Whats in my bag" I've seen. I love that he connects the music to his own life.
Him and Izzy Stradlin were my heroes when I was twelve.
Same. Except it was only Duff.
Izzy was great. First JuJu Hounds cd was amazing
GnR is not GnR without Izzy. With all due respect to mighty Duff
sameee
Back in 1988...
As a preteen punk kid in early 80's Seattle, Duff was the scene guy I looked up to most. Literally and figuratively. Glad he survived.
Yea I was over in Seattle a lot in the late eighties and early nineties. Good times
Duff seems like the most down to earth member to come out of Guns N' Roses. Always seems to show his love of music old and new. Some interest picks here.
Not into Guns n Roses at all but Duff is a cool and honest dude every time I see him interviewed...and he knows his tunes
Same
Not into Guns N´ Roses? Are u crazy? :D
@@megeantivalo 🤣😜
Have you heard Nightrain? Listen to it and get back to me. If your energy doesn't shoot through the roof I'm clueless
@@dba4292 Needs more cowbell
Love how much Duff loves Prince. What a great guy. 💜
You'll love anything and listen to anything when you're drunk with vodka
@user-wi2dp3ol9m
Bot you show up everywhere.
I met Duff a long time ago at a hotel spa in Hawaii. He was running on the treadmill like a bad ass athlete. Said he likes to run... really nice guy.
Still my biggest rock star crush. Found a metal sign that had DF Kagan printed on it. Had it in my garden for years. Thanks for the fun. Glad you made it through

GnR bass player digging Prince... That's complete respect for talent.
It's cool Duff has an identity beyond Guns N Roses which I never followed. Duff is an awesome story teller because he describes colorful experiences.
Loved Duff's book It's So Easy...and Other Lies...Awesome story...Phoenix from the ashes type stuff! Such a humble dude!
Agree. Best rock n roll book ever. And he wrote it himself.
I just listened to the audiobook. 10+ hours of greatness
how can you not love him??
He’s a Prince fan and a punk rocker 😍
Yep, and Shooter Jennings, kind of country metal, at least at the time he was listening to him. He's covered a lot of musical bases...lol.
Duff seems like such a humble, cool dude. 🎸✌️
Duff is the living proof of how eclectic Seattle rock scene is.
Seattle in the 80’s abd early 90’s there was nothing to do but stay inside and buy records and listen to records. All kinds of music.
Seattle Sub Pop records at the airport sell outs
Notneb Airevilo The Sub Pop slogan is “spanning the globe for profit” lol
Gotta love Duff, read his books and been a GnR , Loaded, Velvet fan since day one. Incredibly intelligent and humble. Very rich too.
Such a cool 10 minutes with Duff. Getting "back into records" will open up a whole new dimension of music enjoyment, just holding the records in your hands is magical.
I appreciate all Duff does for the Seattle scene and KEXP.
Gawd. This guy has been through so much. I've loved him since 1992 (age 8, when my mom put a GNR record on).
For anyone who is interested in his story, I recommend warmly his autobiography. He has a lot to share.
Possibly the MOST influential human being to me as a bassist. Awesome.
Les Claypol is from another planet. Check out Stanley Jordan :amazing bass player
Thank you for sharing Mr. McKagan! That was awesome.
Love Guns n'Roses, Duff, Prince, and definitely record's!
Duff has great taste in music. Duff is a true punk rocker.
Possibly the coolest man in rock n roll.
Also the most guinine,interesting,stylish,has the most amazing stories & never seems 2 mind being interviewed &seems 2 sit &chat like he's just sat down with a mate...
sorry bro but Dave Grohl takes this title
sorry bros.. that would be John Taylor
Nah Jim Morrison hands down.
@@ericdraven7185 John Taylor is cool because he was in a band with Duff
Duff is someone I would love to hang out with, he seems so cool and laid-back, love the guy! And he’s a prince fan! Which makes it even cooler!
Awww...Duff talking about how Prince saved his life. As a former heroin user, Prince and GnR fan that hit me.
@Tony who said anything about Eric Clapton?
Not a GNR fan, but love this guy! This feature is always at it's best when you learn something about the individual and their music choices. I feel like Duff needs his own show!
Love Duff, I think he's underrated as a bass player due to Slash dominating the GnR sound.
Yeah, I love those… I don't know what you'd call it, really, but those "snaky" licks he throws in to spice up the basslines. They're all over the Walking Papers records, and they immediately stood out to me on that new GN'R track Hard Skool, versus the original demo with Tommy Stinson on bass (no disrespect to Tommy Stinson, obvs).
I love em both, but izzy is more critical to the gnr sound than anyone.
Prince was an awesome musician
...if I could hang out with anyone from GnR. it's gonna be this guy.
Really cool dude. Seemed to be 100% all in and genuine. Totally exciting with enthusiasm and great memories of these selections.
One hell of a bassist! He plays up front and all in it and FILLS each song perfectly.. his licks run with the guitars fully!
Duff, you are a cool dude.
Who doesn’t love Duff? Great dude...
"Filled my imagination with what was possible." Putting that up in my classroom.
GBH is a awesome punk band. Great that TSOL was mentioned . My favorite era in punk has always been second wave.
Duff is THE reason I play bass. He's the freaking man!
i met him once after a show and he was the nicest member of a rock band I met. The only other band that were as nice as him was Korn.
I always thought Duff was one of the cutest guys in GNR. Also such a cool guy. Loved this episode. His tastes is great! Makes me wanna be his friend.
Oh side note..."I'm a Prince Fan" loved that. I am from Minneapolis so that made my heart happy love Duff.
hope you are having a good day? Thanks for being a fan, liking my page, and for the support you showered on me, I hope you never stop listening to my music and watching my musical videos.
Huge respect for you, Duff. Thank you.
I love Duff's bass riffs and his transitions soooooooo much!
I'm a huge Prince fan as well! I am also a huge fan of you Duff Mckagan! 💜
I have a soft spot for him and jerry cantrell 😭💕they're so precious
I hated guns but always respected duff. Now I see him in a prince hat? 100% respect!
Nice 1 Duff, my first cassette was appetite for destruction and I still go back to this album to this day 🤘🇮🇪
Now I know why I love this guy. All my fave bands are in his top 6!!!!!!
I ❤️ Duff! He’s such a genuine guy!!
Man I liked duff so much that in high school I payed my friends 20 bucks each to call me duff for the rest of the school year. 2005 was a different year ha ha.
packlesswolf1 2005...the hell. Think you missed the bullet train by nearly twenty years, bud. Never too late though. 👏
oh shit i was born in 2003, that's wild man
I met Duff McKagan at Seatac airport in Washington state when he was going thru security, I was assisting passengers putting their belongings into the x-ray and he had his guitar case on the table, I didn't recognize him and started talking about music and collecting records with him, he was really cool, shook hands and introduced ourselves, I realized who he was latter, saw him a few more times there after, great guy.
Bless this guy's heart he's a great guy I appreciate him sharing what's in his bag thank you for posting this video
Very down to earth dude, no rock star complexes. Never been a GNR fan but I am impressed with his taste. Not many know G.B.H, that LP is a classic.
Duff is awesome....great bass player. His band "Loaded " is really really good.
Duff = Legend loves Prince's 1999 saved Duff. Top fella.
This was fucken amazing... no wonder GnR was so fucken great ... they had great taste in music .. that’s what makes a great band ... when they really know their shit and know about the true artist who do it for the love/sake of music 🙌🏻🤘🏻
Duff McKagan listens to Ho99o9
Just when I thought he couldn't be any more cooler.
Mig1997 so that’s how you spell it? Never heard of them but am intrigued by the clip I saw/heard
such a cool cat, amazing depth of music history and an amazing musician.
Duff the legend. Love all the clasic punk! I saw TSOL and that show got back on the punk train too!
His face shows us how nice he is....longlive Sir🤗
Duff is the secret ingredient in Guns N Roses.
The genuine excitement when he starts remembering all the early punk rock stuff...
Duff holding a Fartz section card....classic. I worked in a cool record store in the early 80's in the U District. Kurt Bloch also worked there and had started the Fastbacks, Duff was the drummer. He also was the drummer in the Fartz.
Not really a fan of the bands hes been in, But Duff comes across as a super nice and chilled guy.
My goodness, Duff really surprised me! Loved it every suggestion and everything he talked about.
hope you are having a good day? Thanks for being a fan, liking my page, and for the support you showered on me, I hope you never stop listening to my music and watching my musical videos.
What a totally cool and some great records. Never knew he was so involved in the early hardcore scene.
We will never get another Duff McKagan, hold on while you still can
Duff is my fav songwriter ever, and he's such a cool dude
He’s from Seattle and was one of the last people to see Cobain alive as they shared a flight ✈️ going back to Seattle from LA after Cobain escaped from Rehab.
Cobain didn’t hate Duff like he hated Axl because of his attitudes.
I always thought Duff and Slash were the best guys in GNR. And every time I hear him talk, he affirms to me that he’s a good guy.
Thanks Amoeba!

You’re a benevolent MicroOrganism! 🦠😂

John Doe’s book was great! I’m excited I’m playing with X this weekend I’m thinking about having John and Excene sign it
I stood next to Duff and his wife at a Beck concert in Seattle. Down to Earth Dude!
I woke up this morning and i saw this i have never been more happy
Duff is real peeps. Amazing musical icon.
Finally someone that I actually know. Great pics. Definitely gonna check out those Ho99o9 dudes
These shows rule! Great to see what guy’s like him grew up on. Thanks for sharing!
He is just plain cool
Pat Travers!! Awesome tone...great solos!
Gotta love Duff...though we never did get married! He's a great guy with some really cool stories to tell! I mean, can you imagine the ones he hasn't even told yet?!

@@duffmckagan3083 good luck on the tour! You look amazing.
GNR helped me get through a difficult time in my life. Use Your Illusions 1 and 2 forever in my heart
Señor McKagan lo amoo♥
Dude has good taste, that's for sure. Saw him hanging at Killing Joke show last week!
I love gnr. Duff rules! Great musician! I still remember when he couldn't speak lol. Awesome dude!
just revisited this episode after reading his biography. Not even a big GNR fan, but he is sucb a cool individual with a great life stor
If there is someone who explains and portrays the full meaning of rock music and culture, then it is Duff
He had the best solo career of all of them. The best writer from gnr
He's fantastic but Izzy was the best writer in Gn'R
Excellent taste Sir! Seems like a genuinely decent bloke too.
Duff is so awesome! I just wanna hang out with him and talk about music!
I like Duff's attitude because he's punk rocker as me.
Such a dude. Loving his Claddagh ring, keeping true to his Irish roots !
I could talk to Duff for eternity about music, he is very musically broadminded.
I get chills every time I watch the Paradise City video and see him when he was still 19 or 20. You could almost say he was adorable (for risk of sounding gay, lol). But, out of all the members, he was the most down to earth and polite ones. Right along with Slash. As a matter of fact, i'm gonna watch it right now!
I've got chills!
Holy shit, I freaked out when i saw Ho99o9. Amazing album.
LOVE the cover you did with shooter! Alice in chains rocks!
Thank you Duff !
Oh man I love that you love prince much respect duff oh wow duff your point of view is so eye opening
