Since you knew Duff he was known to the GNR band as “The Sumo wrestling of beers” he had that name until 1993 when he was working on his solo album “Believe In Me” that as out in North America the spring of 1993 . Why did he drop his GNR nick name?

On completing his album his Pancreas exploded due to alchol induced . The doctors advised him to quit drinking or he would be dead in 30days if not less. That had changed Duff’s life. ever since that he had been sober . He brags about that and he throws in that he was one of the last people to see Kurt Cobain alive.
