My good buddy, Craig Duswalt, just released his brand new Guns N’ Roses book today. “Welcome to My Jungle” is filled with funny and interesting stories that happened on the road during the world famous Guns N’ Roses Use Your Illusion tour of the early 1990’s. I personally read the book and it is awesome!

I would love if you would purchase a copy or two of Craig’s book today, or in the next couple of days. It is available at your local bookstore, and at sites like Amazon.com and BN.com.

Guns N’ Roses fans know the Use Your Illusion tour went on nonstop from 1991 to 1993. They know that concerts sold out in minutes all over the world so fans could hear chart-topping singles Welcome to the Jungle, Sweet Child of Mine, Paradise City, and November Rain live. They know the Use Your Illusion tour was the last for the band with Slash and Duff. But they’ve only heard rumors of the behind-the-scenes shenanigans.

Fortunately for fans, Craig Duswalt hasn’t just heard rumors—he knows what went on backstage on one of the longest and most popular music events because he lived it.

As Axl Rose’s personal manager during the ridiculously long world tour, Craig experienced things that would make most people run the other way and never look back. And in Welcome to My Jungle, he shares the sometimes hilarious, sometimes just plain reckless, and always insane actual happenings on the tour.

A true must-read for Guns N’ Roses fans, or even fans of rock n’ roll, Welcome to My Jungle delights readers with hilarious and entertaining exclusive firsthand stories.

Featuring little-known facts for the ultimate GN’R fan, Welcome To My Jungle gives an inside look at what it’s really like to live and work with a hugely popular band, from the middle of a rock and roll hurricane.
