For Shame! Rockers Go Over The Top! Substance Induced Interviews and Concert Performances. Watch Videos
64
Sly Stone
The funk soul brother has taken enough drugs to kill a rhino, two elephants and a hippo. However, he has the guts to appear at a prime time chat show…
Shaun Ryder
One of Britain’s most controversial Rock Stars, Happy Monday’s Shaun Ryder is found at rock bottom, surviving on vodka, methadone and pot! Watch the 2005 rockumentary “The Ecstasy And The Agony”.
Amy Winehouse
The extremely talented Amy appears at her 2011 Recife Brazil Concert, drugged and drunk. The poor girl forgets the lyrics, tries to perform a ballet loop and falls down. She tried to fight her inner demons but lost. RIP.
Shane MacGowan
My favorite Irish rocker, an icon of Folk Rock music, at his best. He simply lives up to his reputation. No need for further comments, just watch the interviews. Bear in mind that Shane drinks and drinks a LOT! After all, he is the only guy in this hub with 2 videos!
Keith Richards
Brit Rock Star is hammered! He throws a TV off the balcony but still makes sure to keep it near the garbage.
David Bowie
According to David, on his 1974 “Diamond Dogs” tour, his diet was made up of red peppers, cocaine and milk. Watch David in this video and you will understand that the man is sincere. This shows character…
James Brown
The Godfather is interviewed on TV as he was facing spousal abuse charges. The Godfather appears high on coke and barks: “I look good, I smell good, I feel good!”
Slash & Duff McKagan
Guns n’ Roses’ Slash and Duff bark drunk at the American Music Awards 1991. I miss those authentic, good old G&R days.
Jim Morrisson
Poet, singer, frontman Jim Morrisson is “improvising” on the piano. Now, who knows…what was the inspiration driver…was it mescaline, LSD, coke or simply some Kentucky Bourbon?
Klaxons
Klaxons’ Jamie Reynolds appears to Brit Awards Interview completely over the top! Saucer-eyed, whacked-out, Jamie plays “air bass” during a TV interview. A few minutes later he will have to play live at the Brit Awards. Jamie…stop swaying!
Ozzy
For Shame! The Prince of Darkness is somewhere else.

I know what u mean man. I mean I like all these guys, and seeing Amy like that. Well, it was a pitty. At least MacGowan is still enjoyinh it. Thanks.
Nice one. I would've also included Tom Snyder's famous "Tomorrow Show" interview with KISS, cuz Ace Frehley is quite obviously intoxicated throughout (which Snyder finds extremely funny) and you can see Gene Simmons doing a slow, angry burn at his antics. Hahaha.
Vangelis this a super hub....really enjoyed the memories again. Vote up!
Dear one2get2no many, many thanks for your comments. I am glad you liked it.
I hope Shane made enough money off royalties from Subaru using "If I Should Fall From Grace with God" in a commercial to get his teeth fixed.
This is funny, but sad at the same time. I wonder how many more rockers are going to get thrown on that "dead from excess" heap before everyone says, "Enough."
KF Raizor, well said. This hub is funny but sad too. Thanks for your comments.
