In the day, there were certain people who should have never tried drugs. Brian Jones, Syd Barret and Peter Green were among them. Brian's talent as a multi instrumentalist was squandered as he wasted away. For Brian, drugs and booze were death on the installment plan.

Oh wow I'm surprised the other two didn't go to his funeral. Thinking bands are like brotherhoods that they would attend.

very few bands are actually that close, some of them have their problems due to the excesses of rock n roll (drugs, chicks) and some of them just didn't get a long from the beginning and are either too childish to keep it professional and not get emotional or they literally just can't work together but the outcome of this conflict is usually very good. I love aerosmith, but really, Joe and Steven are still going at it...... and take fleetwood mac for example without their conflicts Rumors might have sucked so.... but basically, very few bands are really that close, also egos are a very very big problem which is why a lot of bands had like three really good albums then broke up instead of the sixteen amazing they could have had if they wouldn't have gotten stuck up

but I don't knowi f you play an instrument or anything but after being in a band or two you'll find that your band isn't that close even, just a couple of guys there to play music
