Whatever happened to sex drugs and rock and roll?
Now I'll be the first to admit that I am not in the least bit familiar with Miss Winehouse and her music but all these modern musicians, it seems to me, can't do drugs worth shit. They cancel gigs, go to rehab and are generally pussies about the whole thing
I personally think no-one is going to listen to him. Thoughts?

Well, I certainly won't be buying tickets to any of her gigs if she is just either gonna get pissed /drugged up on stage or not even turn up!
I still get the feeling it's an attention thing with her anyway.
Yeah sorry, I should learn to read things properly.
Just seems to me that artists these days can't take their narcotics. Having read books on Motley Crue and all the other old rockers, it just seems like they're a bunch of little girls these days.
Anyway, everyone knows that all the best music was made under the influence of drugs
No I wouldn't boycott anyone's music because they are descending into a drug hell. What else do you think drives her on...?
I think half of all this that comes out is a major PR stunt.
I believe her in-laws spoke out first on an interview on radio, then her dad responded.

See, rock and roll is still alive
I really like Amy Winehouse I wish she would clean herself up and not waste her talent.
Pfft, they all pale into insignificance when compared with the mighty Crue.
I dont think she is estabilished enough to go down to im to cool to worry about my image route just yet. Think her and her hubby are trying to do a Kate Moss & Pete Doherty.
I wish she would just fuck off to rehab though, cos im sick of seeing her in the press.
the ironic thing is the press she's getting is more likely to spike and generate more sales. as if record labels would stoop to such ridiculous pr stunt levels!!
Courtney > Motley Crue
Hahahahahahaha!
You keep dreaming love.
Crue = 50 million records
Courtney? probably not very many at all.
Crue = many more drugs than everyone bar Keith Richards. Read The Dirt.
Great voice, and her lyrics are clever and witful - probably one of the greatest talents out there. It would be a shame to even compare her talent (especially considering she wrote her debut album at the age of 19) to what the rest of the industry does at her age.
That said, I don't think it's healthy for anyone to get that hung up on their drug use and wish her a bit of peace of mind.
sorry... in MY opinion Courtney is miles better :razz:
