Duff McKagan “It’s So Easy: And Other Lies“ with Rolling Stone’s David Fricke

In this raw, utterly candid memoir, Duff McKagan, the rock legend and founding member of Guns N’ Roses and rock supergroup Velvet Revolver, shares his story of excess, angst, struggle and triumph. It’s So Easy details Duff’s rise to the pinnacle of fame and fortune, his struggles with alcoholism and drug addiction, his personal crash and burn, his phoenix-like transformation via a unique path to sobriety, and his success as a savvy business investor and loving husband and father. In a voice that is as honest as it is indelibly his own, Duff—one of rock’s smartest and most articulate personalities—takes readers on his harrowing journey through the dark heart of one of the most notorious bands in rock-and-roll history and out the other side. David Fricke, Senior Editor at Rolling Stone, will moderate the discussion with Duff on the Strand Stage.
