McKAGAN IMMUNE TO ANAESTHETIC

Rocker DUFF McKAGAN took so many hard drugs during his wildman GUNS N' ROSES days, he's resistant to anaesthetic injections.

The bassist - now with VELVET REVOLVER - spent many years seeking out narcotic and alcohol highs, gradually building up his tolerance of toxins.

As a result, he now has to undergo a dozen numbing injections in the dentist's chair before the tooth drilling can start - otherwise he'd feel the pain.

He says, "The problem is that the more you do, the harder it is to get up there. I wasn't getting high off the coke, I wasn't getting drunk, so it was back to heroin or Quaaludes or whatever pills I could get.

"Even now my resistance is so high, after 10 years. If I go to get dentistry done or something, a usual person has two shots of novocaine. I have to have 12."

That's disgusting, It's sick how many drugs he must've done back in the day.

At least he's clean now.

 :o

Damn that had to be a lot of drugs that he did.


It's pretty amazing that he is still alvie.Agter the amount of drugs that dude has taken.

it's said only about Duff. Now imagine how resistable are Ozzy, Nicky Sixx, Toxic Twins (Tyler & Perry)...

;D

well i'm sure that he is clean now!!!
He looks great for his age!!!

Ah dude have u seen his face?...hes only 41 and he's starting to look like Keith Richards...the premature lines on his face are VERY deep.

In the "Fall To Pieces" vid at the start when Scott walks away, Duff briefly looks over and he looks like a pensioner :o

I agree with that.  The last pic I saw of him I instantly thought that he was looking like Keith Richards!

What a shit-load of drugs Duff musta taken.
And as for him looking like Keith Richards, try Rod Stewart :hihi:

that's funny.. He did have  a very fat face towards then end so now it's so much tighter, kind of like a raison,..,,

I think he looks younger and healthier now than he did in the early 90's.  He looks so bloated and sick on the Illusion DVDs.  Same goes for Slash.  He looks younger now than he did when Appettite came out.  Nikki Sixx probably needs a gallon of horse tranquilizer to put him under.

Gallon of horse tranquilizer? :rofl:

He may look healthier today - but not as attractive as he did back in the AFD/UYI days? :drool:

thats just fuckin insane dude  :o

i dont know what you guys are talking about!!! Duff  :love:  still looks great for his age after all those fuckin drugs he did.

Duff looked great back in the day  :drool: And he' s still good looking now, though I think he looks a little bit too old for his age, but I guess that' s the drugs...

Unbelivable how young all the guys look like from being really close apart from Axl (did bottox) and Duff.
I have taken pics this year with Gilby and Matt.  Have seen Slash from really close.
Izzy numerous times on the net,  pics etc.
OK,  Slash began dying his hear and does have half grey beard when he is growing it,  but hey,  who doesn't.
I have few greys and I am only 26... :).
In general,  that whole generation looks very young.
Check out Kiedis,  Bon Jovi guys,  Europe members,  Mettalica guys or for Germans here,  Die Toten Hosen.
I would dare say it must had been something in the air in 60's.

HAHAHA!!!  :rofl:

Fucking hilarious!!!

Anthony Kiedis needed about 8 of them when he went to the dentists back in 94-95, thats when he relapsed after being clean since 1988... :-\

 that is really sad i dont understand why all the rock stars have to get stoned/hammerd it just doesnt make sense he is a smart guy to u would think he would stay clean [ from his afd/uyi days]

Plenty of rock stars are intelligent, but still get wasted all the time.  That has nothing to do with it.

I can't imagine why anyone would have abused their body like that, after all, what was the point. It is a miracle any of them surived, or that any 70's or 80's rocker survived - funny that the same drugs took care of the 90's addict rock stars rather more quickly

I wonder what Duff's health is like - his organs must be devestated, what has it done to his brain and heart - i'd imagine after that much absue ur warranty has well and truly expired, doubt any of them will be hitting 80....

Look at Aerosmith or the Stones though.  Aerosmith are in their late 50s, and the Stones are in their 60s.  Both bands were notorious for their substance abuse, and they're still gong as strong as ever in their advanced age.  How do these guys do it?

Well well well, Duff. You are a very bad child. Go to your room and think about what you've done! (Seriously though, that is extremely fucked up that one human can do SO many drugs. He's still breathing?!?)
