Duff McKagan: bass guitarist of Guns N' Roses and one of the world's greatest rock musicians.But with fame and record-breaking sales came riotous excess and spiralling problems, and Duff partied right up until the moment he was rushed to hospital with a burst pancreas in 1994. The man who lent his name to the beer used in The Simpsons realised that something had to change.By devising his own programme of recovery, McKagan overcame his struggles. His unorthodox regime involved a two-year period of celibacy, hardcore exercise and enrolling at Seattle University to study economics. This led to a financial column for Playboy and new projects with Velvet Revolver and Loaded. Finally, Duff was back on track.This is the story of a man who has partied with rock stars, lived life to its limits and travelled the world to play to millions. This is a man who knows everything about Guns N' Roses. And this is his story.
