Not saying the Ramones weren't a bunch of glue sniffing dummies, but they weren't put together by some label dude with deep pockets.
You poor misguided fool.The music industry is rife with drugs,nearly every major music star you care too mention has had a substance abuse issue.From Elvis to Hendrix to Aerosmith to Whitney Houston.The fact that Sid Viscous was a herion addict doesn't mean the rest were.

The fact that the Pistols were formed before Malcom Mclaren (granted they didn't have a singer) seems to of escaped you to.Maclaren was no 'Dude with deep pockets' far from it he was eeking out a living in his clothes shop.

Any band that you listen to has been 'funded' one way or another as an investment to someone,normally a record company.


So tell me what bands you like that aren't drug taking,bank rolled w*****s?
