STEVEN ADLER Interviewed on CURRENT TV's 'infoMania' (Video)
October 14, 2010Former GUNS N' ROSES and current ADLER'S APPETITE drummer Steven Adler recently sat down with "infoMania"'s Ben Hoffman to discuss his best-selling new book, "My Appetite For Destruction: Sex, And Drugs, And Guns N' Roses". Adler talks about his relationship with GUNS N' ROSES lead singer Axl Rose, the possibility of the classic GN'R lineup getting back together, and what it's like having group sex with Slash and Steven Tyler.
"infoMania" is a half-hour satirical news show that airs on Current TV. The show puts a comedic spin on the 24-hour chaos and information overload brought about by the constant bombardment of the media. Hosted by Conor Knighton and co-starring Brett Erlich, Erin Gibson, Ben Hoffman, Bryan Safi and Sergio Cilli, the show airs on Thursdays at 11/10c on Current TV.
In "My Appetite for Destruction", Adler tells all, fearlessly addressing his struggles with heroin and crack addiction; his financial ruin after being kicked out of GN'R; his shattered marriage; and the severe health problems that nearly claimed his life on several occasions.
Steven finally appears to have beaten his epic twenty-year addiction. He has remained clean and sober for over the last few months under the watchful eye of family friend Dr. Drew Pinsky.
The other members of GUNS N' ROSES threw Adler out in 1989, saying his drug use was harming his performance. In 1993, the band agreed to pay him $2.3 million to settle Adler's lawsuit claiming a 1990 agreement by which he gave up his interest in the band was read to him and signed without his attorney present.
