^ i think some of them live in this squat i used to hang out in on avenue c.

You might not know this one, but for me it's a typical smack rock band. "Slobodna Europa", a legendary local punk band, completely decayed by heroin abuse. All of those guys are still alive, however in a very bad state now.

Is it possible to know "drug rock" when you hear it without having taken drugs (bar alcohol) in your life?
I used to think the only way i would "get" My Bloody Valentine was for me to be high on something, now i have thankfully come to renounce such foolishness, and i intend to be pressed up against a pillar going "mmmmm" when i see them in a couple of weeks. I think its because ive always thought Loveless was overrated but thankfully thats not just me.

thats why i said "early flaming lips", "finall the punks are taking acid".

EMMAh 06.11.2008 12:12 PM

I'd assume they're fairly crazy.

Also, I don't care how old he starts to look or how dirty, Stza is a fox.

rob, i'm sorry, but you have no taste.

radarmaker 06.11.2008 12:33 PM

I always thought Happy Together by The Turtles made much more sense as a drug song rather than a sappy love song.

Trasher02 06.11.2008 12:48 PM

The Locust hasn't been mentioned yet.

Everyneurotic 06.11.2008 01:00 PM

Rob Instigator 06.11.2008 03:51 PM

how did Bowie fucked me? with his steady and constant ripping off of American musicians and styles?

DeadDiscoDildo 06.11.2008 05:01 PM

Yeah, Keith dabbled a bit but I don't think of the Stones as junkies. They're just very good musicians, professionals all the way.

gmku 06.11.2008 11:35 PM

You know what's funny is seeing interview footage of some of these guys, Clapton, Richards, et al, and they are obviously junked out of their head. And you just kind of feel yourself pulling for them, Come on, Keith, stay awake long enough to answer the questiion, focus...

if by "dabbled" you mean "was a full-blown heroin addict for over 10 years"

if that's dabbling i must be a very pious individual.

Rob Instigator 06.17.2008 10:54 AM

I am nominating you for canonization cantank.

Your piety abounds!
