Are Fleetwood Mac the wildest band ever?

[crublue1]

Tbh Shaun Ryder is one of the worst but he wasn’t being a hellraiser he was just living the normal life of an addict who luckily had an income to support his needs

I know a guy who was in a band signed to the same label as the Mondays, and James at the time. They supported them on tour, and he reckons the Mondays dressing room pre gig was carnage, he was no shrinking violet himself, but what he witnessed first hand actually shocked him.
James, on the other hand, he says, were boring fuckers, no smoking, fruit bowl riders, water, fruit juice.
Edit.
Great band mind.

I think, without even trying, Happy Mondays were one of the wildest bands in music. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/entertain...-drug-fuelled-yes-please-disaster/ar-AA14P7vl

Well the founder of the group took bad acid, left the group to become a gravedigger, threatened his account manager to stop sending him royalty payments with a shotgun, and ended up in a mental ayslum, so yeah pretty insane.

Nasty business Rock and roll

They were all hellraisers in a way back then, and some of the best of them took things too far. Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Keith Moon.

The Beatles decorated their Sgt Pepper album cover with images of marijuna plants, and that at a time when being found with some dope in your pocket by the police resulted in a prison sentence.

I'm not surprised Fleetwood Mac are up there. They started out as a blues band with one of the finest guitarists the UK has ever produced, Peter Green, but he cooked his brain so much he stopped functioning.

Green was spiked and 'abducted' by a hippy sect in Germany.

Worth noting that many premature deaths in the world of music and entertainment are attributable to prescription drug misuse/ overdose/ mistakes:

Presley
Moon
Hendrix
Epstein
Prince
Jackson
Monroe
Ledger
Garland

etc

Hectic lifestyles also an influencing factor perhaps, but not the cause of death
