pheww, good thing axl wasn't waiting backstage to stab a btich

hahahaha! Best comment of the day.

That ol' fat guy let a bunch of social misfits get in his club and play originals that no one else could stand.

Its cool for Duff to love NY/English/LA Punk, but he's got to make more of a personalized sound at this point. I also am not a fan of bassists playing guitar. Gets to me.

Duff's the coolest and will continue to bring his best to the stage as long as he lives.

Yeah I sort of agree with the bassist on guitar issue. It bothers me a little, even though it shouldn't. I get it when a band may lose their guitarist and the bassist will make the switch to accomodate the band's needs, but other than that eh.

Correct me if I'm wrong though, but wasn't Duff playing guitar for the Seattle hardcore outfit The Fartz before he got the gig in Guns? Can't remember if it was bass or guitar.

To be honest I'd rather hear Duff play guitar than sing though. Always hated his shitty vocals, especially on the Fear and Misfits covers off Spaghetti Incident. When it comes down to doing a punk rock song I understand that fully that vocals are not always gonna be top-notch, but some guys pull off the punk rock voice, and others (like Duff), just sound mentally challenged.

...and Loaded rocks.

Duff is awesome
Duff is always staying frosty

The only Sex Pistols I know is with Sid Vicious on bass.

And your crazy if you don't like Duff's voice. Have you heard his first studio album 'Believe in Me'? Amazing.

So does that mean that "Belsen Was A Gas" is the only Sex Pistols song you know? It's the only one on which he played.

Sid may have played bass on the song Bodies. I don't know one way or the other what the truth is about this. Look into it yourself if you are interested.

I agree with your astute comments on Duff's voice. I liked his subdued vocals when singing "Its So Easy" and other GNR/VR tunes. He doesn't need to be a typical loud lead vocalist.

Less is more, in his case. Loaded sounds much better than his vocals in the 90's. Kind of adapting the early 80's LA punk sound.

Duff apparently played drums, guitar, bass, etc. in other bands. Who knows why, but he seems awkward with a guitar. This interview gets into it.

Awesome performance.

Muff Mckagan

No it doesn't mean that this is the only song I know. The Sex Pistols were far better live than they were on record anyways.

Whew, for a moment there I had visions of a zombie Sid Vicious onstage.

Duff and Glenn both rock.
