Status Updates From It's So Easy: And Other Lies

What I love about this book is his editor let him speak in his own voice.

Page 195 has me in tears 😭

UGH DUFF I RESPECT THE FUCK OUT OF YOU WHAT THE FUCK.

wait why am i. feeling so proud of a man who 1) is older than my dad and 2) i've never even met. wtf

I LIKE THIS BOOK

genuinely the funniest new information ive learned from this book so far is that gnr are failed arsonists. how tf do you fail at arson??????????? i love them

no hate to slash i still love you but,,,,,,,,,,,, goddamn its nice to read an autobiography where the author actually has prior writing experience LMFAO

Plâng puțin mai tare decât ar trebui, nici nu mai știu ce să zic

Nu am cuvinte😎

did not expect to get this sad within the first 30 pages goddamn??

Am citit 3 pagini și deja vreau să intru într-o groapă și să plâng acolo 10 ore

So cool that he knew people like Andrew Wood and others from the Seattle scene.

Really well written, I didn’t know if it was going to be well written for obvious reasons but I like it.

Just finished the chapter about how duff got into music and learnt bass

It’s really good I’ve just learnt how duff met slash Steven and knew abt axl

Trying again on audible

okay why am i crying????

this is honestly such a slay why is he such a good writer

Page 43 - the punk in sratlle was all ahout creating something out of nothing.

“La lettura continua ancora oggi a rappresentare per me un rifugio meditativo. [...] È diventato un modo per difendermi dai problemi in arrivo.”

“Il mio corpo era talmente segnato dagli abusi che lo spirito era l’unica cosa che mi manteneva a galla, era tutto quello che mi rimaneva.”

[Steven Adler] una sera mi disse: “Sai, nella vita mi basterebbe riuscire a fare abbastanza soldi da poter avere sempre a disposizione un sacchetto di erba buona e una bella scorta di crack”.

Pag. 15 “Io e Slash festeggiammo il nostro primo viaggio su quell’aereo fumando crack insieme.” Come si dice, chi ben comincia... 😄

I really like Guns N Roses thanks to one of my close friends so I've read Steven Adler mothers autobiography about her perspective of the life of Guns N Roses, so now I'm on to Duff's and Slash's is on the way to read next. It's eye opening to read from the source himself on GnR's rises and I guess fall if you will. Will keep you all updated. :)

Easy to read. I wish it had more substance. Glosses over several events with out any real detail.

and we are BACK to the musician memoirs

This is a p slow read, but omg, I love Duff.

I'm a huge fan of Guns N' Roses, so this should be an interesting and fun read!

He calls Billy idol one of his punk idols... in this case perhaps he really does mean the Bromley contingent. He also calls the Lords of the New Church a punk supergroup which is technically true but wouldn't past muster in ant pristine punk circles that called them sell outs

"Who needed health insurance when there were pet stores?"
Is this the most iconic sentence I'm going to find in this book? Maybe.
