I remember partying in the 80's same as Chris describes. Actually believed people like us would die young and didn't care. Going sober does change the way you think.I'm older than Chris and glad i'm still here. Glad you're still here too Chris. Now if I could make my guitar sound like yours...................

I also lived a similar life as Chris, without the fame he achieve obviously. Wasn't for a like of trying though. i even gave up guitar for a long time because drinking and some drug use took me down a nightmare, suicidal road. Thank GOD i never killed anyone drinking and driving. I have been sober a decade now. i even started playing guitar again. i found the love of just playing music again. i know at my age my rock star dreams are over but, passion for making music never will. ROCK AND ROLL!!! If anyone is suffering from addiction, reach out and get help!! You have to take the first step but, thankfully there are millions of recovering people out there and YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO IT ALONE!!! That is why support groups are so great. Anyway...God bless...and, yeh, i saw the famous pool interview of this guy way back in the day and, he was me...cam't believe we are both alive!!! LOL...

I am a sober musician as well. During the early to mid 90's I lived and worked in Austin TX, playing in various bands around 6th st. I was just having fun, but then it got to much to the point where I couldn't hold a regular job. And since I wasn't a star, I damn sure needed one. So I got away from it for a while. I still play though, just don't play bars anymore. Stay sober man, the only way to be.

Wow how i wish my body would have been allergic to opiates, so much misery and pain avoided. If any young kids are thinking of trying hard drugs do yourself and your loved one's a favor, stay away- do the right thing, drugs will take you to places you thought you would never go and it will def make you do things you thought you would never do. When everyone else is falling in love or getting a great job, having your first child, buying your first house etc etc you will be the one in the dope house trying to find a vein in your arm. Please stay away from drugs and alcohol.Trust me not dope. Last but not lease DO NOT EVER get on Methadone.
@hellionstaley58757 жыл бұрын
and methadone is the only way when everything else fails. sadly when you get your body and mind addict to it, methadone will be the only way. some people have their bodies in need of opiates for life. methadone saved me after 18-19 years of use. I was never more than 6 months totally clean. I entered in 2015 and gladly it has been the only stuff to keep me in peace. so telling others to not get on it is a very baaaaad advice. methadone will saves those whose bodies are forever changed. sad but true.

He sounds a lot like me actually. I used to be a nighclub musician and of course the drinking went hand in hand with it. I drove home drunk so many times I lost count, had 2 DWI's, and wrecked seveal cars. That didn't stop me. I started having stomach problems and ulcers and it was only then I realized I had to. Once I stopped for a while I couldn't relate to the stupidity of drunks eiether

***** Yeah I'm 50, and on the average I played for $60 to a $100 a night. I played in Austin TX then I moved back to Corpus Christi TX where i live now.. The rate of pay for anything is cheaper once you get south of San Antonio, it's like they consider it Mexico down here. Of course the cost of living is cheaper too. But yeah-I drank a lot back then, being in bars all the time and being surrounded by it. I no longer drink and seldom do I play gigs anymore, the economy took care of that.

@shadowalk5 ай бұрын
That beat up Jackson is probably a much higher quality guitar than most brand new Jacksons today even the US-made ones. I have a friend who bought a brand new SL1 Soloist from Sam Ash not too long ago and it started to not make a sound after a few weeks. Turns out one of the wires going to the bridge pickup got cut off due to faulty soldering.

But this was in the time of "Myth & Legend" so to speak,as the rock musicians were like gladiators! SO LARGER THAN LIFE! As all you had was the vinyl, Rock magazines, hear say and word of mouth! But now, with the internet, we have a lot of actual facts surfacing and band members being able to express "The Truth". There's a lot I have researched about W.A.S.P and as much as I tried not to believe half the things I read, because I didn't want to believe them. The bottom line is that my respect has been shattered regarding Blackie Lawless! Granted, he is articulate, but he is also a scheming, selfish, greedy, profit thirsty sell out! He has robbed others of what should rightfully be theirs! And he is a wimp!!
