Duff carrying Slash is all I need today

Nikki: I can’t go. Stress is bad for the baby.

Once there was this rock n’ roll band rolling on the streets…  

Raised in a working-class Indiana family, high school dropout Axl Rose had, by age 20, compiled a police record that included charges for public intoxication, criminal trespass, and contributing to the delinquency of a minor. An ELO and Queen fan, the singer became friends with guitarist Izzy Stradlin, and the two joined forces in L.A. in the early Eighties to form a band. Crafting their name from those of two groups they’d played in, Hollywood Rose and L.A. Guns, they formed Guns N’ Roses with English-born biracial guitarist Slash, whose parents, both in the music industry, had moved to L.A. when he was 11. With bassist Duff McKagan, whose own past included stealing a purported 133 automobiles, and drummer Steve Adler, the Gunners immediately accrued notoriety for their debauchery — alluding to the band’s heroin and alcohol abuse, their posters featured the legend “Addicted: Only the Strong Survive.”  — Rolling Stone Magazine And became one of the most awesome fucking bands of all time.
