I’m an alcoholic . Makes me cry listening to these stories but also brings me back to why I quit.6 yrs sober now. GNR was “my band” and have seen them live in different iterations like 6-7 times . Miss the old days but man 😥🙏
That's awesome man. I saw GNR play last night for the first time and they were incredible!
Just for today brother. Just for today. Our disease is cunning baffling and powerful.
I had 28 front row ticket for guns and roses concert in lake compound Hershey lake compound Pennsylvania. And they canceled . And never refunded me back my money . I’ll never pay for another guns and Roses thing in the rest of my life .
@@BigDaddy-vr2ut oops lol
Glad u good now
Duff, you are not only an amazing musician, but also extremely intelligent person who has humility and grace, which is rare in the world we live in today. 10 yrs sober here. I understand the grips of despair that addiction takes you to, and im forever grateful to have a chance to be sober one more day👍
Keep it up! I’ve got almost 3. Here’s to another day.
Keep the faith y’all are doing awesome I have not drank since 1990 that was my biggest hangup just remember in the end we win✌️
GOD BLESS
"On the road he (Slash) plays guitar from the morning till the night." And that's why Slash is so fucking good. Playing don't mirror his life, it is his life.
This show never disappoints! both Duff and Sammy are great musicians!
Sammy is a joke - destroyed Van Halen
Was hoping to see them make a bit of music, as per the guitar carried into to living toom
@@godslayer1415 Sammy was asked to come in and audition and got the gig. You want to blame anyone blame Eddie, and for Gary Cherone too...But both Sammy and David made great music. But Eddie got to be more Eddie with Sammy since David wasnt trying to be so David. Sammy knew who the star was, David thought he was the star. One album later he was MIA while VH was still topping charts. More songs than with Dave. David Lee Roth has an estimated net worth of $60million. Sammy Hagar has a net worth of $150 million. What a joke. A joke that gave VH longevity and lots more $$$.
@@godslayer1415 well that wasnt hard to do with drunken princess diamond dave (im a big dave and sammy fan)...but yes he did change van halen forever.
I like the music Van Halen made with both singers, but for me I don’t see where all the hype about Sammy came from, because his solo career wasn’t great ,that music never did anything for me , he had one hit I can’t drive 55, and he didn’t gain any real commercial sucess untill he joined Van Halen, and he was inducted into the rock ‘n’ roll Hall of Fame as a Van Halen member,maybe got a little recognition from Montrose,i love him he seems like a cool dude his personality and character is awesome , I follow him after his music career even, but I respect him as a person and what he’s accomplished in life and his career,I just didn’t think his music was all that great before Van Halen
What else can you say about Duff, he's very talented, very smart, cool guy. A true Legend! Glad his doing great.
Maybe put up part 2 with Duff we saw no jamming.. I want to see these boys jam 😎🤘🏼🎸
Yes!
Hellz Yeah!!! 🎸🎸🎸🇺🇸❤️
I'm waiting for the next big GnR release..... a Christmas record!!!!
Imagine Rose using his nasally irritating voice to sing CHESTNUTS ROASTING ON AN OPEN FIRE
Oh yes!!
Yea, that’s the reason I clicked.
Out of all the Gunners, Duff seems like the only one I'd like to hang out with. He seems like such a nice dude.
Slash seems really laid back and cool too, no ?
I've also found that weirdly he had aged the best out of all of them, despite how long he continued to get fucked up after everyone else in the band ahaha
Dude Duff is the most underrated bass player and I don't know why?! The bass lines are genius in GnR! The bass lines are all over the place but still in timing and sound with the band, especially with the drums!!!!! Seems to be a great guy!
It's almost like a 2nd melody line. So many writers in the band putting pieces in that take multiple listens, and Duff might be the best. The bass line that starts Sweet Child is the part I hum, not the guitar.
Absolutely! I've been playing bass since 1984. My original influence was Geddy....but after Appetite For Destruction was released, Duff was a new hero! Underrated...underestimated....and underappreciated. I find bass players are looked over all the time in general because people aren't geared to listen for it in the mix. I get it. But it sucks when the work they put in...which generally holds the song together...is seemingly panned by everyone and they don't hear what's actually going on back there. Duff rules.
I think it’s because a lot of bass is about SUPPORTING a great song.
Rather than being showy .
Unless your Flea
But yeah. He’s one of my favorite. And the rock community loves him
WHAT?? Duff has admitted he barely knew how to hold it!! HIS WORDS- HOW can anyone do anything well Drunk 24 /7. When he nbailed, BRILLIANT , he started a Company getting DRUNK ROCKERS to keep their money !! brilliant
Duff singing "So Fine" basically changed my POV as Duff as a rock performer. He is one class act!
Pasadena
Named my dog Duff back in 93! His album Believe In Me was and still is a great listen! Great musician. Glad he's still with us after his life of excess.
Duff voice is so nice.
My fdad namede me DUFF in 1955 HA!!
If you haven’t read Duffs biography It’s So Easy And Other Lies I highly recommend it.
Incredible what he’s been through and the way he turned his life around is nothing short of a miracle.
Yes what an awesome read for sure!!!
Duff is 58. Sammy is 74.
Let that sink in.
Whoa shit really!! ??
Fuck. I am 33 and feel like shit already. Can't imagine reaching those ages so well.
Point taken! Whatever Sammy is doing …..IS WORKING!
You can't tell lol
That is absolutely crazy!
Duff is the most nicest guy in all of rock n roll. love this. thanks for posting!
Based on what? Do you know him? Do you know many "rock stars"? So, quite possibly not even close to the nicest, or even nice... you don't know.
I believe Dave Grohl is universally accepted as the nicest guy in rock n roll.
@@morbidmanmusic I have met him you asshole …several times, yeah met a lot of rockstars. And get the privilege of meeting my heroes unlike your sorry ass!!! Stop talking out of your ass loser. And fuck off!!!! 😂
He really seems like a cool dude.I remember when gnr first came on the scene.I always liked duff.
@@morbidmanmusic that’s a great point, people act like they really know these so-called celebrities movie stars singers and performers, and you know what gets me is how they’re always talking about these rock stars drug stories is like a unique miracle or something,half the human’s on earth go through that same stuff with drugs and alcohol and worse, Time and time again they try to prop these Rockstars drugstores up like they’re the only ones that ever went through that, as if they’re praising them because of that.
Sammy did a great job of interviewing! Kudos! He should do more interviews with rockers!!!
HAIL the great Hagar for what he is bringing us in these times, God Bless this man. and God Bless Duff for being a soldier of light .Hagar ..is like the Elon Musk of today's politics just hitting us out of the blue with great moves.
God blessed him with a drug problem... great god....
@@morbidmanmusic sometimes God allow bad things to happen for humanity to know that there are good beings who have good heart willing to help others and later realize we have our missions in life once survive
You’re lost if you think Elon musk is you’re savior
@@Daniel-yt6sc Dont worry ,,,,,poor thing lol
Congratulations on your sobriety….you got a second chance at life….and you took it. You are in phenomenal shape now keep it up you are awesome
Had a major eating disorder and seeing duff in another interview two years ago made me seriously consider my health. While he had drinking I’m so glad I watched him open up about his sobriety. I became a better person and changed my attitudes and I’m so much healthier now. Joined a cycling club and drinking water has done wonders. Thank you Duff for being the awesome guy that you are and helping me change myself for the better.
Duff is truly one of a kind. So sweet and giving. His work with one of my biddies in the Walking Papers is amazing. We are all better for him surviving and carrying on!
2 of my favorites. Back in 1993 I at the Winnipeg Arena I saw Van Halen during For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge with and Guns n Roses during the Use Your Illusion tours.
Dude Duff seems like the coolest down to earth guy. Him and Slash seem like some of the best people to hangout with
Duff’s book is so incredible! His book really help me get sober, of course I had lost everything but it was super motivating
I'm an alcoholic. I read Duff's book when I was 29. At that point I was binge drinking on a regular basis, but never thought this would happen to me. When I was 32 I woke up one morning in excruciating stomach pain. I remembered Duff's story. Had to call a cab to take me to the hospital. It was severe pancreatitis and I spent 15 days at UCSD Hospital, three in ICU. They let me out with a bottle of morphine pills and a 30 day script. Got addicted to those. I was able to get another script from a clinic. When they ran out, I started drinking again. Then, back to the hospital. This went on for almost 3 years. Thirteen times in the ER. I was hooked on both. When I was about to run out of the pain pills again, I went to a head shop in Ocean Beach and asked a girl there if she had any herbs for opiate withdrawal. She introduced me to Kratom. It worked.
Glad u survived.
Saw G&R on one of their tours, I think they called it "Not in this lifetime."
I could not believe how hard they worked!
Duff played and looked like the most grateful man on the planet. Superb show. You know how, at the end of a concert, the audience still wants more after the final encore? This audience had nothing more to ask. Guns left EVERYTHING on the stage and in the air.
We were as wrung out as the band. Could not ask for anything more.
Quite a contrast to when I saw them touring Appetite, back in the 80's. Aerosmith opened for them. Newly reinvigorated, clean Aerosmith. Guns looked & played like 50 year old junkies, while the recovered, 50 year old junkies ripped it up with the energy of teenagers who had the chops of journeymen.
That contrast stuck with me. So great to be able to take my 20 year old son to see one of Rock's great bands, playing their best.
It maybe felt that way, but Guns opened for Aerosmith. Either way. Love them both!
@@peterpuetz3188 yep...
Totally agree I saw GNR last night here in Australia and they absolutely killed it wow what a performance.
These two legends put a lovely notch in the music world , so glad they are both here.
Love Duff. Guy turned his life around during the '90s and helped so many others. I actually am falling in love with GnR all over again. Slash, Duff, and especially, most especially Axl genuinely turned their asses around and took their lives and music to the next level.
Cheers Sammy, love the chat.
The live movie he did covering some songs and talking is amazing!
yes but they could not play in park ha yarkon in 1993.. ask him about it lol that show was so bad lol
duff do you remember how bad that show was eh? lol i know you do
Axel turned into a liberal commie and supports the murder of babies
@@michelleper5065 Yarkon was probably that period I'm talking about. For Duff and GnR, the mid '90s was a shitshow. A normal week would have consisted of not showing up for rehearsals or the show. The intake/outtake of bandmembers on a extremely high rate of whatever. Diva like outbursts over nothing. The release of maybe one or two good songs via the Spaghetti Incident. I have a feeling that their level of playing today is thanks to that period because if they could stand upright after that amount of drink or drugs and still find the notes, that was an achievement. To any of the youth who disbelieve me, I was there. Look it up, it really was worse than what I'm describing.
@@cracklinjack___9466 lol oh they could play back then very well.. only that period.. i mean come on.. the masterpieces were there before that year.. they were top of the top only that night they were all over the place.. and i assume it was all around that year.. anyway no one make 300million by error lol axl did not make 300million dollars by mistake he is a genius so are thegroup members that are rich beyond belief and it is only due to the masterpieces
What I like about Duff the most, he is real..and a great kind person. respect👍
I never knew his pancreas burst that's insane! He's amazing!I remember hearing a part of his story on doctor Phil 1 day I really wanna read his book because his story is incredible a total survivor I just admire somebody things about him
Duff has definitely a better interior designer than Slash.
2 legends of music ...My appreciations spill over for sure! Read Duffs first book...it was great
While I'm not a huge GNR fan I read Duff's book and have loved the guy ever since. Great episode, Sammy!
A great gentleman now. Long may he Rock
Duff is an absolute sweetheart!
Awesome interview! I love ❤️ the short but important questions with each answer! This part of program makes me have fun most times at answers!💯❤️🌟👋
Duff you are AMAZING
Duff is SO tall.
He’s done a lot to build up his body and health.
I’m so happy for Duff.
I always love sweet Sammy
Duff looks so healthy. What a blessing.
He really shows people they can completely change for the better.
And become a person they never thought possible.
I really got the phrase
“I’m Done”
I had been doing & dealing a bunch of meth. 7 years of my life. I drank and snorted enough speed for 10 people. One day I woke up with about 5,000 dollars worth of speed in my possession. When I woke up I just said to myself “I’m Done”
No rehab. No help. That was in December 4 1985.
Haven’t had a drink or done any drugs since then.
I’m Done!!!
Now at 71 years old. I really wish I had stopped a lot sooner. Like maybe the day I started !!!
Duff is a great bassist, and I purposely pay attention to his back up vocals with GNR. He has some cool rhythm in his playing style.
When Sammy called Aquarians nuttier than a fruitcake, Duff missed the subtle dig that Sammy made at EVH, who was also Aquarius.
I'll stand by this statement
Duff McKagan is the most talented guy in GnR
Love these two, truly hard rock royalty.
Duff gets cooler every day! In this clip I got kind of a Keanu Reeves-vibe going, do you agree?
Sammy Hagar...always comes in clutch! Great to see Duff too!
Any incarnation of Guns N' Roses without Izzy Stradling will never be the best incarnation of GNR.
Hagar is the perfect interviewer. It takes a special kind of "star" to humble themselves to interview another "star". He's able to allow the spotlight off himself, and placed on another.
I loved the Believe in me album. One of my favourite songs is in there, 10 years.
I actually have more admiration, respect and love for Duff, than anyone else in Guns and roses. He always seemed to have it together more than the rest of the band.
watch the recent Dublin concert, Civil War song...was thinking the same at time
I'll check it out, thank you.
Duff's story, for me, is encapsulated by a tee shirt I saw him wear once. It says, not today Satan.
That's the principle that can make him say, I'm the youngest and should be me taking care of mom.
Awesome!!! I saw Duuf in 21.06.1992 with GNR and Soundgarden and Faith no More in Basel Switzerland..... Long time ago!!!!
Just a random comment ,,,,, Duff has the same tone of voice as Dave Grohl ,,, I started playing the video just listening and thought that it was a Dave’s interview !!
I loved both of your music when I started understanding music but it is so much better understanding the people behind the music. It really makes me appreciate so much more about appreciating music and understanding it with the relevance to things in my own life. These nuances are what connects the artists with their fans.
Damn great interview but way too short 😕
Love to hear more from Duff!
Yes. I wanted to hear a little more from him about the different incarnations of G&R and why he likes one over the other.
I’m really happy he’s getting some playtime guys and gals, he’s super talented and a super cool man. Total respect
This interview could have gone on for more than an hour or two for my liking. Duff went on to get his business and economics degree from Seattle University. He manages his own money and has done very well at it. I think he helps other musicians too with their finances.
WOW...just WOW! Fascinating personal experience in his life! 💜
Man, I wish Sammy Hagar would have let him tell his story completely.
Also I love how Duff gives him the side eye when he starts talking about that horoscope nonsense😂
Lastly, is that Red white and blue guitar the same guitar played by Pat Smear during Nirvana's MTV unplugged??
Duff the only bassist that I approve using a pick
I LOVE this channel
"Which incarnation of the band is your favorite?" - Sammy Would have been hilarious if Duff had said, "I don't know do you prefer the Roth or Hagar Era of VH?" Hahahaha
Good for Duff… Glad he’s still here…
I'm glad Duff survived!
Man... if these guys could have kept things under control back in the day... you name it... drugs... alcohol... what EVER... they could have become the biggest band in the world TODAY. But, they were the biggest band in the world back then.... isnt that the purpose? isnt that what they wanted? Who said their intentions was to make it last for decades? no one ever said that. I am glad I see Duff not drinking, I am glad I see Axl with Slash on tour. What they did... was a necessary evil, to have people like you, and me, still talking about G N R. Now that they are all okay and are what you would call " typical human beings playing guitar, bass, drums" they are not. They are the ones who showed you one thing and one thing only. "You needed this back then and thats why you remember us, we grow old, we learn, we see beyond that now. Please listen to the music they created for you and not how they created it; cause then you would be missing the point... Perhaps you've always been. I am out.
🎼🤟♥️♥️♥️🤟🎼
My step-dad brought a stereo back from Vietnam and still has it...Reel to Reel and all...Still the best stereo I've ever heard
Duff is realy a Nice guy i like him a lot also he knew kurt cobain 🧍♂️🎸🎸😎💋💋💋❤️❤️❤️
Duff 's album ' Believe in me '
Is still deadly 👍,to this day!👍
It's a video with Duff and Hagar that has 420k views. I watch
Duff great Musicians!!!! The Best!! I Love You,Duff
Too bad Axl's ego completely fucked up one of the most epic bands of all time. Such a shame for the rest of the band members and the fans.
Back in 78, 79 I went to a Heart concert in Oakland Ca. there were 3 bands The first was Earthquake 4.0 or something like that, Sammy Hagar & Heart. I had no idea I was about to see the singer from Montrose. During the concert Sammy Hagar sat down on the edge of the stage with a steel guitar & when Bad Motor Scooter started I finally realized what I was seeing & hearing & I was in euphoria. It was great.
Duff is almost like 60 years old and he looks like he's in his 30's or 40's!
He looks great!
Hope he has a long and healthy life!
So disappointed when I found out "Duff" beer wasn't named after Duff McKagan.
It was. GNR was huge when the Simpsons came out in 1989.
@@jaredwalters84 a Simpson's writer/producer has debunked this myth.
Duff My fav bass players all the time, even I'm fans with Chris novoselic to
“I wouldn’t let YOU let me!” ......Fantastic, thank you for being a real person instead of a persona
I love these guys. I listened to both these great musicians since the 80s and 90s in all their bands they were in.
I didn't know Bob Vila was interviewing Rock Stars now
Duff is a class act!
Duff and Sammy are so down to earth its silly. Could be my bestest friends. Same age as me probably. I miss the 1990s.
O my god!!! DUFF I Just saw you in Milan you are always so beautiful ❤️😍😍😍 great voice and sound. So nice to see the great Sammy Hagar too!
I've read articles that Duff has written. he's so smart.
Absolute one of the best USA Rock Bands of all time. Kind of funny though that Duff is the beer everyone drinks in the Simpsons...alcohol finds its way around the name.
D.O.A bloodied but unbowed
One of my favorite bassists of all time I don't give a shit about the slaps or fingerstyle bass techniques it's the tone and the melody of his licks
Enough about me…….. let’s talk about me
Yup
Best of DUFF n true grit coming back from death.
The King of bas s 1989
In terms of depth, having read both their autobiographies, Duff is the Pacific Ocean and Hagar is a lake.
Amazing that Duff "got out" and survived. So many musicians that lost to the demon of drugs and alcohol
Absolutely love seeing duff wearing a shooter Jennings shirt. That's awesome
This was great, I was a huge GnR fan when they first hit the scene. They were the bad boys and wild west of Rock nRoll...duff seems so gentle
I grew up looking at my parents album covers.
Repent and turn your hearts to Jesus please before its to late.
Excellent Interview, Excellent People!!!👍🤘🏼
Brothers I appreciate the human aspect of this interview, but in respect to what was the best version of G'n'R??? Axl's voice made that band. It was short lived, but from about 87-92 he made a sound that was how I felt. Love the rest of the band and all of their talents, but that was some heart shredding shit that hasn't been heard before or since.
Shouldn't there be a coaster under that bottle of water?

Alcohol is so nasty 🤮.I love his story.
So are drugs
Duff is such a cool guy in a chiill/easy-going sense
Duff é o cara mais legal do Guns.
Best album Pistols. Best band Clash ..Sandinista is a mind blower
