TOM DELONGE DISCUSSES HIS DRUG USE w/ STEVO
I never got to go on tour but I performed live music just barely long enough to be able to honestly say I've been paid to play on stage. And long enough to learn that some people look at you like a total weirdo and call you a poser if you decline alcohol or drugs before going on stage. I always hit the stage with at least three drinks "and two Vicodin" in me (thanks, Alkaline Trio). However, one time I showed up at noon for band practice in commercial warehouse and passed on a drink or hit of drugs (I forget which, but I think it was drugs) and was scolded for "not being a true rockstar." :shrug: It was only noon, for fucks sake!
