John was most certainly the poster boy for drunkenness, and Stevie was the poster child for coke addiction. The others did the same things, but Stevie & John certainly took those vices to the extremes.

As much sh*t as we all give Mick, his unabashed honesty and self effacing nature make him incredibly endearing. I do wonder what caused the dissolution of his most recent marriage, though. I assume he strayed one too many times, as always. Or was Lynn tired of being second fiddle to the band? It does make me happy to hear Mick is getting closer to his older daughters, though. It has always sounded like he mostly abandoned them for stardom.
