DUFF McKAGAN's LOADED - Pro-Shot Footage Of 'No More' Live In Glasgow Available
Eagle Rock has posted more pro-shot footage of DUFF McKAGAN's LOADED performing, this time of the song 'No More':
Steve Appleford of The Los Angeles Times recently interviewed Duff Mckagan; an excerpt follows:
Even before his dozen years as bassist for GUNS N' ROSES and his later collaborations with VELVET REVOLVER, Duff's days as a Seattle punk meant one transition after another. “It was 31 bands or something ridiculous by the time I was 19,” he recalls.
Now McKagan finds himself in another new band: THE WALKING PAPERS, which also includes SCREAMING TREES drummer Barrett Martin, plus singer Jeff Angell and keyboardist Benjamin Anderson, both of THE MISSIONARY POSITION. PEARL JAM guitarist Mike McCready also plays on the band’s album, Walking Papers.
McKagan describes the sound of the band as “dirty blues,” both bruising and contemporary. But he insists the sound is no departure, rather part of a larger repertoire of interests.
“If I’d had my druthers, I would of course love to be in the same band this whole time,” he says. “It’s not that I like moving around, but it’s just my lot in life. There’s plenty of things that I’ve passed up doing - but the thing that has always driven me since I started playing punk rock is that it’s got to mean something, you know.”
A seven-week Walking Papers US tour begins August 8th in Scranton, PA. “Playing bass with Barrett is challenging and killer,” McKagan says. “It’s really great to be 49 and to be really inspired on my instrument.”
