Um ... METH happened? Not familiar with tweakers, eh subby?

Damn, I remember when his DUI made Fark a couple of years ago & thought that he looked rough then.

Meth will fark you up, stay FAR away from that stuff.

Meth..the dumbest drug in the entire world and strangely the most popular, outside of weed or pills.

When you are stuck in Terre Haute, IN, meth happens...

From the looks of it I'm guessing his hit was Ugly Stick.

Ah, Meth. I've done a lot of dumb things in my time, but that isn't one of them. Believe me, I understand the emotional crises that sometimes lead to drug addiction...but why on Earth would you pick meth, knowing full well what it's gonna do to you?

I've seen enough pics of people on Meth to not want to see another.

That stuff is made with sawdust that came from teh Ugly Stick.

"Check it out, Leroy!"

Yeah, a sad followup to his DUI bust. Actually saw him in concert in the 80s, open for (cough)eddiemoney(cough). A couple YouTube clips (both pop), for context.

His biggest hit, "I Wish I Had A Girl"

Lesser hit, "Darlin' Danielle Don't"

A dude with a mullet does meth?


No. I'm sorry. I'm just not going to believe you.

No, I live 45 miles or so (Illinois side) from Terre Haute. I see tweakers every day. Apparently, I just see the amateur tweakers. Nope, no desire to do a drug made out of farm chemicals, watch batteries and cold pills.

Well, I guess because its cheap. And I would most likely assume those who start down that path assume "Oh that won't happen to me".

Lesson for the kids: Stick to weed.

Uh oh!! The website says he's got a gig tonight. I wonder if he's gonna make it!

 
MarkMartinFan 2009-05-08 02:25:23 PM  
a box that tests later showed contained about 1/10 of a gram of meth

What's that? a crushed sudifed tablet?

"I wish I had a girl to score some meth...oh yeahhhh!"

I loved his two hits. Not much love given to "Hey Baby", but it was a great tune.

Heh...we're in the same county. And if you haven't seen tweakers that look like that around here, you must be staying inside a lot.

Have you looked around? Hell yes I stay inside a lot! Although Walmart at 3am here is pretty funny.

Hell, it's a mindfark going in there at three in the afternoon. It's as though some criminally psychotic individual tried to populate an entire town with Insane Clown Posse fans.

LMAO! Exactly. And occasionally, they meet resistance from the Hee Haw fans.

Indy boy here, so I dug Henry Lee and especially his backing band Floyd the Barber.

Turn it Up was his greatest song, f the hits.

/He did one of Bob and Tom's Carb Day concerts. I delivered the Ampex DAT tape that they used to record it and got to hang around for the after party. Nice guy - he charmed my wife to pieces. She floated for weeks after that show. Even now that I know he's a meth head, I still like the guy.

// I feel sorry for the guy, but I would still party with him. Maybe even more, now that I know he can score the drugs.

chemical_angel: Um ... METH happened? Not familiar with tweakers, eh subby?

I worked in a methadone clinic for a year, some of the folks that rolled through there were scary. When I was working in rehab it was even worse. Came in one day and there was a very milfy looking lass with something gone awry sitting next to her, looking like an old woman. Turns out the old woman looking one was in her late 20s, the good looking one was her mom.

I was in Texas in the late 70's/ early 80's when "crank" first reared it's head. I don't support prohibition, but I would make an exception for meth.
I watched that shiat eat people within a year. It killed a guy that was probably the most talented musician I had ever played with.

/RIP Greg.

I've never understood either meth or crack. In either case, you have to be around somebody who is already on the drug in order to get into it. How farked up do you have to be to be around either a tweaker or a crackhead and go, "I wanna be like THAT guy!"

 
polf pilf 2009-05-08 08:16:47 PM  
I saw him play at a county fair in the early 90s. I was maybe 12. After a few songs my friend and I decided to ride the Tilt-A-Whirl instead.

I have been at the local guitar center when he is selling gear for cash

I've met the dude (back when he was sober) and he was very personable so on some level I think this is sad

the farker in me though calls darwin on this
if you know how they make meth
why in the name of fark would you take it

I locked my old guitar player in my storm cellar to get him off that shiat. He threatened to kill me, called me a motherfarker, had to piss in a bucket. But I think I saved his life.

you choose meth etc because for some twisted reason
you came to hate yourself and your life

There are many bad things to be said about meth. Yet, I've never found anything else to motivate me to participate in the stealing of a complete Volkswagen motor at 2am.

It always sucks when you see celebrities get caught up with Meth.

"Holy shiat dude, what happened?"

I don't follow. He was a butt-ugly dirtball all along. Why are you surprised?

 
varmitydog 2009-05-09 09:29:25 AM  
He was going to be a big rock star but ended up down to the Kiwanis clubs. Looks like it broke him. Link

Still, there is a sweetness to the man who can move a small town audience into having a good time.
Hope he sheds himself of the meth and gets back to being a musician, before it kills him.

Went to HS during the late 80s. Never heard of him.

I actually loved "Darlin' Danielle Don't".

Serviceable, middle-America 80's rock. Like Mellencamp-lite.

 
Wasilla Hillbilly 2009-05-11 11:57:47 PM  
1/10 of a gram? I don't see why he didn't just ingest that or blow on it and let it settle as dust. Yeah, let's throw a box out the window. This guy must be on crack or something.
