It wasn't ALWAYS the drugs...

[EveryHour]

I just had to copy this reply I left to a post about Bristol, CT '89 ("the infamous swearing show") on the Rumours board, that a lot of people may not have looked at because the thread was started by someone just asking what show it was. If you wish, go to that thread and check out the couple of posts that lead me to leave this one. I just wanted to get more opinions on this.


I have to admit, I think some people read drugs into a lot of things Stevie said/did, when in fact she may have just been being silly or funny...naturally. I'm not trying to deny her plethera of coked and Klonopin-ed out moments, I'm just saying it's not like EVERY SINGLE THING she did during those years was drug-influenced! (Well, maybe not with the Klonopin because she was taking that regularly, i.e. every day on a schedule. But I still think there's a good chance she would've told off the security in Bristol the same way without drugs! In her heart, she does not want people "f--king with us"!) I don't think she seems unusually high in the In Concert video...walking to the stage she just seems genuinely nervous, as I can imagine she indeed was. I see a lot more amazing, natural passion in this performance than coke. Stevie can be THAT powerful without drugs! Believe it!

I said this in the other thread, but I completely agree.

i agree with u...the swearing wasnt really drug induce...I think we all know Stevie cusses like the best of em....


I dont think she seemed very high in the INCONCERT video either, but the red rocks video we all know she was coked up...
