Could you keep your
**** together as well as he has? I DOUBT IT!!
It amazes me that with all the music he puts out and plays, people STILL have to talk
**** about his drug use. It contributed to a decline in his playing for awhile but hell what musician that got "hooked" on anything didn\'t suffer? He was in the midst of being a part of something he felt had gotten out of control and no longer connected with as much in Phish. No wonder his drug use skyrocketed and his playing suffered.
He has obviously been practicing and preparing for a change in musical styles. He is happy and playing well. I wish people would just give him a break.
Sheesh not even Jerry got this much
**** and Deadheads could be real
**** when Jer was "off".
