A Day in the Life of Nile Rodgers
A Day in the Life of Nile Rodgers - Created by Alexandre Guidetti
Since being diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer in October of 2011, I've embarked upon a work schedule that's mind boggling even to a life-long workaholic like myself.
While on a month-long tour of Germany and Switzerland, I even flew back and forth to California to film "Get Lucky" with Daft Punk. Upon returning to Europe we had to stay in a city called Braunschwieg because a convention in the city where we were to perform at had all the hotels booked.
Here's a short film in Braunschwieg, Germany called, "A Day in the Life of Nile Rodgers."

Born to heroine addict parents, I found this syringe chair directly across the street from my Braunschweig hotel - Hmm...
