Duff McKagan Tour Dates Announced

Duff McKagan has announced a series of solo U.S. tour dates to coincide with the release of his new double live album, Tenderness: Live in Los Angeles. The U.S. leg of the Lighthouse tour, named after his 2023 solo album, kicks off on November 4 in Boston and wraps up on November 20 in Seattle. Tickets will be available to the general public starting June 7.

A Look Inside McKagan’s New Live Album

McKagan recorded Tenderness: Live in Los Angeles at the El Rey Theatre in 2019, following the release of his studio album Tenderness. The 17-track live LP features a mix of his solo songs, deep cuts from Guns N’ Roses, and several covers, including the Clash’s “Clampdown” and Mad Season’s “River of Deceit.” McKagan explained in a statement:

“This live recording from the El Rey in Los Angeles showcases not only the songs on the record but some cover songs we started to fold into the live set as we toured.
“We’ve highlighted a couple of tracks from this show – Tenderness being one of course, and our version of the Mad Season song ‘River of Deceit.’ Such a beautiful song written by guys from back home that I know now, and a couple who are no longer with us.”

McKagan expressed a deep emotional connection to the live performances captured on the album. He reflected:

“It feels like a celebration to me. All of these live shows we did on that tour felt like a shedding, a prayer to better things, and a beautiful coming together of all you bad motherfuckers.”
