DUFF MCKAGAN Answers PLANET ROCK Listeners' Questions (Video)
July 29, 2013Duff McKagan (GUNS N' ROSES, VELVET REVOLVER, WALKING PAPERS, DUFF MCKAGAN'S LOADED) recently answered a number of questions for listeners of the U.K. digital radio station Planet Rock. Check out the footage below.
WALKING PAPERS is the new Seattle band featuring McKagan, former SCREAMING TREES drummer Barrett Martin, longtime Seattle musician Jeff Angell and MISSIONARY POSITION guitarist Benjamin Anderson.
WALKING PAPERS will release its self-titled, Jack Endino-produced debut on August 6 and will be part of this year's Rockstar Energy Drink Uproar Festival starting August 9 in Scranton, Pennsylvania.
"Jeff is a guy I've known since about '99; he's a guy that everybody in Seattle knows about and has thought should be the next big whatever," McKagan told Billboard.com about how WALKING PAPERS came together. "He came and tried out for VELVET REVOLVER before Scott [Weiland] so I've been close to him for awhile. When Jeff and Barrett started putting some of these [WALKING PAPERS] songs together, Jeff called me and said 'Would you come up and play bass on some songs' and one thing led to another after that. It happened in kind of a right way; it wasn't like a pre-planned, 'We're gonna put a group together' thing."
