Junkies are junkies are junkies. They got no respect for themselves and if they don't pull their heads out of their asses they eventually (sooner than later usually) end up dead - probably with a needle still stuck in their arm.

AIC was a cool band. Staley had a lot more going for him than most folks. A lot of people would kill to make it as big as he did in the music industry.

The fact that he had it all and was still so miserable he had to shoot junk says a lot . . . and ain't non of it nice neither.

It sucks he had to go and off himself - accidentally or on purpose (there is no accidentally, actually, with junkies - in the end, they got a death wish and in the meantime they are just ticking off days on the calander till they hit that last big fix) - but the fact is he *did* kill himself with his junk and becaue he *had* accomplished and attained all that he had in his life, his killing himself with junk makes him a Fuc*ing *LOSER*.

That does not change the fact I like some of his music. But he spiked a vein, one too many times,  and caught the ultimate rush as a result.

Hey, I love the music of the Doors as well. But Morrisson is still an ass for riding a white horse to his grave.

Junkie musicians are passe' man.
