DUFF MCKAGAN Talks About STEVEN ADLER On 'Opie & Anthony Show'; Audio Available

February 13, 2009

VELVET REVOLVER and ex-GUNS N' ROSES bassist Duff McKagan was interviewed on the "Opie & Anthony Show" yesterday morning (Thursday, February 12). An audio portion of the chat, featuring Duff talking about former GUNS N' ROSES drummer Steven Adler, is available for streaming at this location.

Duff McKagan recently published the first two installments of his new financial advice column, "Appetite For Investment", at Playboy.com. McKagan has become something of a financial expert after profitably investing his royalties and getting his business degree back in the late '90s. He told The Pulse of Radio what he hopes he can provide to his readers. "I think in this climate, what I do have to offer is that perhaps I can simplify everything and start back from square one, and give people some confidence," he said. "Most people don't know about finance and that's okay. We're not taught about it. In this column, it's gonna be a place you can come to really start reading about the basics of finance."

McKagan also writes a weekly column about anything that strikes his imagination, called "Reverb", at SeattleWeekly.com.

He has been interviewed on PBS and other news outlets about finance and the business aspects of being a rock musician.

McKagan's side band, DUFF MCKAGAN's LOADED, will release its latest album, called "Sick", on April 7.

He also said that VELVET REVOLVER is closing in on a new vocalist and might have some news to announce shortly.
