I would love to say poor Duff, but after I read his book I have to say that he knew what he was doing. Fortunately he got the great chance to change his life.. But still, it's really sad that he had to reach this point..
they all were...It's a damn shame how it all turned out. I find it funny that the 5 of them lived, slept, fought, ate, snorted, injected, fucked, puked and most importantly rose to the top together. Now you can't even get any on them in same room together. Shows you what a lot of money can do to people. Very fucking sad.
dang it's so sad to see the old pics and video of Duff when he's so bloated from all of the massive drinking (and drugging) that he did those first several years. I'm so happy for him that he decided that he wanted to live and worked so hard to break those chains. actually his road to recovery is amazing and probably not what you'd typically expect from any "celebrity" let alone a "rockstar". he details it in his book "it's so easy..." the whole book is really well written. his memory of names and dates and events and things that happened all during these times in incredible, especially since he was fucked up all the time. and his vocabulary is impressive too. and I bet a lot of people don't know that he got his GED and ended up going to college and getting a bachelors degree in business and started an investment company with another man that kinda focuses on helping those in the industry to manage their money. which is a great idea if you think about it. he's just an all around really interesting guy and he seems so chill and genuinely nice. best of all he was a loving, respectful son and now a husband and father. rock on Duff!!!
Regarding that spaghetti thing, I read somewhere that Steven Adler stashed some drugs in the fridge (for which he used the code word "spaghetti") next to the spaghettis and that's where the name "Spaghetti incident" came from.
