Duff McKagan - Howard Stern Interview, 1996

[@monkeyspoon8255]

Duffs transformation from 1993 to 1996 is genuinely incredible. His interviews from 1993 looked like he was on his last legs.

[@Marleystrummer]

Sex Pistol Steve Jones had a lot to do with Duffs recovery, bless both of them ♥️

[@allsystemsgo8678]

91-93 were horrible. He's constantly wasted, stuttering

[@dgenerated]

He was drinking a handle + a day!.

[@likkidixx]

@@dgenerated A handle could be considered normal for a serious alcoholic sitting at home all day. He needed coke and speed to function at gigs the last years. Quite incredible if you ask me.

[@StilettoCutsQuick.]

Monkey spoon - he was

[@megswaters6355]

Duff is so nice , calm and patient even though they are annoying him! I'll always love him.

[@thedude4672]

They're not annoying him. He knows what to expect from Howard. He loves it.

[@joshuayettou3552]

Nah. Howard is an especially jealous and weird dude. He just gives them so much attention they are sort of forced to come on to get the publicity and money. No one in their right mind would have to go through the circus 🎪 of ridicule of the Stern Show just for shit and gigs. Ugh.

[@solidrock6524]

Does he not look like Keanu Reeves?

[@jamesong.a.7695]

I don’t think he’s genuinely annoyed, he’s just newly sober at this point and ex junkies who are newly sober tend to lack excitement and appear uninterested..

[@Youtuube304s]

@@solidrock6524 yep. could be his brother

[@GlennDavey]

This is one of the best happy endings in rock history. The band had to die for these dudes to live. Duff still going strong, lookin' good.

Vodka lol no the guy faced his addiction s went to school for finance. Unbelievable

[@heavypeppe]

@Frank Dux old Duff was already trashed at 7.30 am

[@_REVOLUTION]

Duff was in his early 30’s here. Prime of his life. He’s now close to 60. It freaks me out how long ago this was. He made an astonishing transformation though.

[@chilly6470]

I've never seen Duff looking so young and fresh.

[@bimbobaggypants4820]

He looked liked a totally different person here.

[@andysalter7192]

Watch footage from 87.

He kinda looks like a blond Keanu Reeves

Was hoping someone else noticed

[@AeroGem]

32 year old Duff McKagan.. 😍

[@TommyGun1979]

Stern was being a real @sshole there... very disrespectful to Duff, who's been patient and calm. Duff is a true gentleman

[@rex8958]

That’s all of Howard’s interviews sadly

[@tobysgamingworld1550]

I know it’s Howard’s thing to make fun of addiction but Duff is a real deal miracle story. I read his book when I was getting sober. It’s a great story. God bless ‘em, him and Slash, Steven Adler too.

[@kyleculpepper798]

I read duffs autobiography and it was pretty insane . I’m not the biggest G n R fan but his story was wild. He really was on the path to an early grave with his alcoholism. It’s good to see him so lucid and healthy here

[@mztweety1374]

Scared me shitless 😂

[@UnderdogTactics]

Duff looks like a male model at this time.

[@cmcg7126]

As much fun as they were having at listening to that old tape of duff it must have been scary for him because he was listening to himself basically slowly dying. One of the hardest parts of sobriety is when you have people get nostalgic and tell stories of crazy drinking times and it scares you because you can't get your head around why you were in that place and why you were self destructing.

[@BudderB0y2222]

yea man I didn't find it funny, just found it sad

[@freebee8221]

Not just that. Howard is a moron. He was making fun of the kickboxing thing. He just doesnt get that bowing to your sensei is all about respect. Marshall arts saved his life

[@lexisteele9216]

Duff is such an inspiration. 🖤

[@nancybatch7007]

Howard always makes the interview about himself.

[@360kravmagaselfprotectionw6]

Duff looks so young

[@musiclover3205]

He really does look so young here. He was 32 years old here,

[@TheThereader1]

How does Duff keep so calm? Hes whatever it is, always calm.

[@TheKitchenerLeslie]

Practice from dealing with Axl.

[@zachrizzo6525]

When you’re completely sober, your mind changes from when you’re not co-dependent.

[@MrOctober44]

​@@TheKitchenerLeslie lol.

[@roxannemoser]

I despise Howard and Robin. They asked Duff about his divorce and wouldn't STFU and let him answer before they start throwing shade about his alcoholism and saying he won't stay clean. 😡

[@maxpax7389]

Dude was actually dead in 1993-1994 and looks so fresh here.

[@stevenjon1347]

The human body replaces every cell over a seven year period. 70% of the cells in this fresh Duff are the same as nearly dead 1994 Duff.

[@marcgambone4240]

I just listened to duffs book called " it's so easy and other lies" and it was phenomenal! I love this guy

[@phnigra111]

Great audiobook! Genuine good guy

[@kerrienoble5887]

I just finished it yesterday. I loved it and Love Duff. A true Phoenix rising from the ashes.

[@orangecounty2033]

Howard & Robin discuss Duff McKagan and Guns N Roses .... with Duff in the room listening

[@BRay1286]

Duff and Izzy were always my favorites in gnr. They always struck me as the cool chill guys that cared about the music but got caught in the gnr/rock and roll madness. Axl was nuts, slash was they typical crazy lead guitarist and Adler was on a death path from the start.

[@lomarsweed6604]

Why was Slash crazy? He was a cool chill guy that cared about the music.

[@moreblack]

​@@lomarsweed6604Slash is the one that's actually put out the most music ain't he?

[@RootzRockBand]

Slash is cool as can be 😎

[@Undick]

Extremely annoying how Stern interrupts every sentence.

[@ryanjones9498]

Howard was at the height of his ego during these years. He cut off everyone back then.

[@roxannemoser]

I know, and Robin is just as bad. She fed Howard's ego and also stroked her own. Both of them are a$$holes, complete cvnts.

[@GlennDavey]

Yeah but actually he does that so people don't give the same answer they always do. this is what makes him Howard Stern

[@dinoc734]

Duff mckagen looks like he should be starring in WB teen drama

[@johnran6015]

I like how Steve Jones couldn't give a fuck about being on Stern

[@giannatr06]

I really admire Duff. His demeanor is amazing and he just seems very nice.

[@louisethomson3856]

He's such a lovely guy! They are being really cruel to him! What a wonderful strong man x

Shut up howard..let them speak...duffed talked about having a ton of anxiety and panic throughout his life I can relate,,you feel trapped with no escape.. clearly he's struggling in this interview...the alcohol used to masked it. being without that safety net is extremely tough.I wish howard backed off a bit. I do understand if you've never had it you can't relate.. glad to see 30 yrs later he's well and works hard at staying healthy.

[@ladypalomino3151]

They were given a million dollars up front just to see where a Duran Duran bassist/songwriter with a bassist turned guitarist from G.N.R. and add a fired drummer Matt Sorum from the Illusion cd's and then put a punk guitarist/vocalist from the Sex Pistols all in the mix and see where it goes?
