Is Duff McKagen on TB?

Holy frigging crap. Slash isn't real. I feel sick. This is like the saddest day ever for me. I'm 36, and I'm just learning this now?
Eric, if folks give you any crap, just suggest they try flatwounds, people love that around here. They say it fixes any problem anyone is having having to do with anything, but I call snake oil.

I ignore the people who say God isn't real. Tons of people say that, but I still believe that when I die I will be immortalized in a wax figure and my soul will go to Rock N Roll heaven where all the rock gods live in harmony and play Harmonys(the type of guitar) and learn from Jimmi Hendrix.
Wait. Isn't Rock N Roll heaven called Valhalla? The same name as the paradise that the Vikings believed they would go to after they died(not the football team, the ancient group of warriors).
No, that's only "Metal Heaven"...
Or is "Metal Heaven" actually hell...???
I'm so confused. I need some Duff to clear my head...

Us metal heads go to the same place as the people who imitate the Beatles in their music and how their band dresses.
Yes, but you forgot an important part of GNR/Velvet Revolver History, Eric!
In the 2011 Superbowl Halftime show, Slash popped out of nowhere into the grid from Tron to play with a slightly drunk fergie pretending to be axl Rose, with a muted Les Paul slung over his shoulder like the true legend that he is.
Later, at the afterparty, he used that Les Paul to strike down some computer viruses mega man-syle, and then plugged it up to a virtual amp and began to play. The power of his rock guitar was such that Axl Rose, Duff McKagen, and the other two guys from the original Guns N Roses line up could hear it, and proceeded to zap themselves with a digitizing ray, arrive at the afterparty (which was somewhere near the entrance to Flynn's arcade), and the full band played a 2 1/2 hour one night only reunion that lasted only as long as "Sweet Child O' Mine" in our world. After all was done, the band said goodbye to the newly cybernetic Will.i.am and company, as well as all the (literally) block headed guests. After they all left via the Solar Sailor, and zapped back into the real world, they all went to Duff's house for a beer.
We only don't know about this reunion concert because the government hushed it up.
This is either inspired or disturbed. I'm not sure... all I know, is that if I could fit the whole thing in, it'd be the sig I pull from this thread. But to try to pull just two lines from it... wouldn't do it justice.
