Recently, Duff McKagan of Guns N’ Roses revealed the first and only time he met Prince, which didn’t go as he planned.

He said, “Yes, I met him one time. It was in Germany. I went, it was the Diamonds and Pearls tour. Guns N’ Roses were playing the whatever stadium the next night, and he was playing the arena.” He continued, “I went in through the back, Guns N’ Roses guy, all that stuff. [Prince] heard I was there and would like to talk to me.” He added, “He knew I was a fan. I was way too drunk. It was when I was still drinking and I realized I was too drunk.”

McKagan continued, “I don’t remember what happened. I remember there was candles and stuff, and I’m f**king too drunk. And there’s Prince, and I don’t want to be here. I don’t want to be here. And got out of that [situation].”
