Duff McKagan Releasing New Book This Spring

. (hennemusic) Former Guns N' Roses and Velvet Revolver bass player Duff McKagan has revealed that he will publish a new book, "How To Be A Man (And Other Illusions)", on May 12.

The project sees the bassist share the wisdom he gained on the path to superstardom-from his time with Guns N' Roses and Velvet Revolver to getting sober after a life of hard living to achieving his personal American Dream of marrying a supermodel, raising a family, and experiencing what it's like to be winked at by Prince.

McKagan shared some insight into the book's development last year, telling TotalRock Radio: "I had a column for the Seattle Weekly for five years, and there was one column that was called 'How To Be A Man', and it was kind of tongue in cheek; it was really tongue in cheek. And I got a book deal from that column."

"It's a how-to guide of things I've learned about life - being a dad, being a husband and being in a rock band. And it's, like, a city guide in it, but a very tongue-in-cheek city guide; like, how I see cities. It's got all kinds of stuff. And other stories. And hopefully it's gonna be a funny book."
