She finally got over it after decades of it and several trips to rehab.....and old age......

This is spot on. I'm a theater actor, and won't drink during a production. Not even on my off days. Remembering lines is important, remember lyrics is IMPORTANT, and emoting the writer's script is your job!!

You get money to do your job. I do understand the rock and roll life and being f*** up. But, you have to know your limits and what chemicals you can do, and what's diminishing your tool box. Let alone diminishing your life.

Some performers can handle it, others, not so much.
