The next Guns N’ Roses album that we look at for #GnRWeek is “The Spaghetti Incident?”. Released in 1993, it’s a compilation of cover versions of older punk or hard rock songs. Duff is listed as a producer on this album, which is cool. Coming…
The next book I looked at for #GnRWeek was Duff’s book, entitled “It’s So Easy (and other Lies)”. Nice title. I read this one on Kindle, hence why I don’t have a photograph of the front and back cover. Here’s the Amazon cover though. I’ll…
This post, during #GnRWeek, was meant to be something a bit more than this. I wanted to write a review of the Guns N’ Roses tribute act called Guns 2 Roses. I’ve been trying to see them in Southend-on-Sea where I live for the last…
After reading Steven Adler’s book I wanted to read Slash’s next, because Steven and Slash had such a close relationship in the early days. So #GnRWeek continues with Slash’s autobiography. Like most autobiographies there is a lot about Slash’s youth at the start. Sometimes this…

The first book and band member we take a look at for #GnRWeek is Steven Adler. I really enjoyed reading three autobiographies of Guns N’ Roses band members for GnRWeek. I read Adler, Duff and Slash’s books and I actually pretty much read them concurrently….
We continue our look at Guns N’ Roses’ albums in #GnRWeek with Use Your Illusion I, released in 1991. I can remember there was so much hype and anticipation for the Use Your Illusion albums, and for me it totally lived up to the hype….
The first Guns N’ Roses book I am reviewing for #GnRWeek is ‘Appetite for Destruction: Days of “Guns N’ Roses”‘ by Danny Sugerman. I first read this book when I was about 15 years old, when I was at the height of my fandom for…
The second album we’re looking at for #GnRWeek is G N’ R Lies. I tend to think of Lies as an EP, and I think it technically is an EP but it is often referred to as their second album. It only had four new…
