Lumikki Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Thanks again, Coma.To stay on topic, I've noticed Tommy looking decidedly worse as well, but he might just be showing his age for all I know (combined with the stress of touring or whatever).I think there's nothing wrong with fans showing concern, though. It might give him somthing to think about (should he really have a problem), before he finds himself in the hospital with an exploded pancreas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowmass Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Couple thoughts:A- I want my rock stars (although I use that term loosely with Tommy Stinson) to party asses off. I don't want to read about the sobriety they found, the nutritionist, the massage therapist, the yoga instructor they have on tour with them. Or how they love lattes now.B-As Sinatra said "I feel sorry for people who don't drink...when they wake up in AM that is the best they will feel all day".C- Stinson comes from a major party background (Replacements) and his bro died basically from alcoholism...so I'm sure Tommy keeps it under control. Partys on tour, maybe chills on off time, who knows....See more on Bob Stinson- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Stinson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GnRDuff1 Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Back in the 02 mark 1 version of the "nu-gnr", I thought Tommy was far and away the best new member of the band. The coolest and most "GnR" of the lot. Hope he's just partying and it isn't a problem. Hope they aren't falling into the same trap as the old band and getting overly drunk to the point of a problem while waiting for Axl. Remember, the old band looked like get were having a good time onstage, too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest NewGNRnOldGNR Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 (edited) I don’t have an issue with enjoying thyself on tour (be that a few drinks on a more regular basis); but Tommy’s say overindulgence worries me (he’s a middle aged man with a family and a brother who died as a result of such behaviour).a man was drunk on his birthday? no way...........This type of Tommy has not been specific to the particular example.dude this is rock n roll....Rock N’ Roll is music; the phoney baggage (coke, alcohol, premature death as a fashion statement etc.) doesn’t apply anymore.
