    I love Duff. I've always looked up to him since the 90s. The more I learn about him, the more I aspire to be like him. He has got to be one of the most intelligent, down-to-Earth, humble, and selfless rockstars ever. And I would say the same about his wife as a model as well. I've read all their books. Power couple of the century!

    It's crucial to recognize that we're not alone in our struggles. Many people grapple with similar feelings of self-doubt and self-criticism. Yet, there's power in vulnerability, in sharing our experiences, and in supporting each other on the journey toward self-acceptance and self-love. This Mental Health Month, let's commit-to ourselves and to our loved ones-to prioritize mental well-being. Let's work to break the stigma surrounding mental health and foster a culture of support and understanding. And let's remember that by embracing our own vulnerability, we become better individuals, advocates, and champions for others.
    Thank you, Duff, for sharing your journey with us. By opening up about your experiences, you've shown others that they too can seek help and achieve a healthier life.

    Duff is not only my role model on bass, but on life. Our paths are eerily similar and I respect that. My favorite part of this is the "good day to die" segment.
    Now I know where the line in Longfeather came from
