Quick and easy. The majority of bands/artists that were on drugs during the height of their career that have cleaned up, 9.9999 times out of 10, suck now after being "sober". New York Dolls Aerosmith Guns 'n' Roses Lou Reed Jane's Addiction and a gazillion more.

I think of it this way. If you needed that type of dependancy to reach your goal than you all ready have something wrong with you. Now don't take this that bands that are always wasted are good too. I guess what I am saying is that sometimes you have to realize your limits. Career and artistically. Of course there are exceptions but I don't care about those here. Because it doesn't matter how you slice it Lemmy is god and Keith is a saint. Sick and tired of being sick and tired? Sure. But also sick and tired of hearing you new found lease on life. Give me a beat up '67 Caddie over the newest, fanciest BMW any day.
