Let’s try to be completely objective with regards to this picture. First, look up the definition of a drug den. Now tell me what you see in this picture that makes you say it’s a drug den?

What you are doing is referencing past interviews and applying it to this picture. Because Stevie and several other people have said she spent millions on coke, and for many years, of course we can say she was a drug addict. But objectively speaking, forget what you know and just look at the picture with new eyes- again, what do you see that makes you say it’s a drug den? Where are the used needles? The powdered substances? Other people lying passed out? Anyone lying passed out, for that matter?

I’m not saying Stevie didn’t do drugs, or Dave didn’t. I’m sure they did. But it’s a picture of a bedroom, not a drug den, that’s all. And your insistence on calling it a drug den is funny to me.
If Stevie personally killed every single member of your family, you'd defend her, and say that they had it coming.

Calm down. I am just connecting the dots. I am not talking about just the photo. I am going by what Dave has spoken about that night and what Stevie herself has said. I never hung out with either of them. I am going by what they have said, what happened in the 80s, and just connecting it to the photo. You really think there was nothing wrong. Even Chris said that she was not even socializing with Stevie in those years because she was living on some fantasy world. I saw the concerts, her bf was the biggest drunk and addict in rock at the time. Her behavior was so out of control, marrying her best friend's husband, then going on tour with a boyfriend. Doing insanely amount of drugs, falling off stage, not showing up at recording studios etc. We know what went on even on this night. I am just saying the photo reflects what we know. You cant be that simplistic to think you need to see drugs, needles and white powder to know drugs were going on.
Dave Stewart openly talked about using acid all through the 80s. That was actually inspiration for Alice and the looking glass in Tom's video Dont Come Around Here No More. Dave is on top of the mushroom smoking an opium pipe. Someone this drug crazed talks about the night at Stevie's house as being very bizarre. That says a lot coming from Dave Stewart. That is why I love the photo. Its a glimpse into that crazy world

Gosh, I didn’t realize my responses were getting out of hand- I’ll definitely try to calm down LOL.

I’m almost tempted to upload a picture of my bedroom and see what you’d say about the amount of laundry on my floor or the comics on my nightstand. And even the fan I have.

If you think that photo is a glimpse into a crazy world… remind me again, is it the typewriter or the fan that is your “glimpse into that crazy world?”

If laughing at someone saying a picture of two people in a bedroom with a typewriter and a fan is a drug den is “defending” her, then sure, I’m guilty LOL.

Whoops, there I go getting out of hand again- I better take a second to calm down LOL. Otherwise I might say something hilariously melodramatic!
