Re: Duff finally writing an autobiography.
Just from reading his SW blogs, Duff is a great writer and has an excellent sense of humour and outlook on things. I think it will be a great read, but Duff himself has admitted to not remembering allot through his wasted GN'R days.
Still looking forward to it though.
Re: Duff finally writing an autobiography.
The '94-'97 era may be a juicy one (no pun intended). Duff toured with Believe in Me, his pancreas exploded, Gilby got fired, Paul Huge was hired, everybody (sans Axl) was fired... So far, we have mainly Axl's and Slash's accounts on the period where things went seriously south for the band and both maintain the other party is in error with the truth. If you read between the lines, Slash had a major alcohol problem at the time and Axl was exerting draconian tactics to secure the band name and record deal. Neither party is obviously willing to cast himself in an unfavorable light, which is why Duff's two cents could be very sobering (again, no pun).
Duff's so far been rather diplomatic about the whole thing, so it'll be interesting to see whether he maintains his general integrity by saying that, at the end of the day, all three were distracted / concerned with other things than becoming a solid unit again. Another very interesting thing would be to hear what happened after Slash was let go; Robin was hired and Matt was fired. Chris Vrenna, Moby, etc visited the studio. Duff would have all sorts of GNR stories to tell even after the story of the UYI lineup was essentially over.
