welcome to the jungle

I just watched the Behind the Music for Guns N Roses. So sad. I was *SO* into GNR in middle school. My parents even let me go see them when I was a freshman in high school when they came here with Skid Row. I mentioned I used to be a metalhead, right? Seeing Steven Adler (the original drummer) just made me sad. I had no idea he'd had a cocaine-induced stroke. It just reminds me of things, you know. I had some friends who were out of control like that when we were younger. Had. I know more dead people than I would like to. I mean, look at me. I have issues that are related to how much I used to drink. I know people in jail for various offenses. I know people who have gone through rehab. Some have made it, others have not. I guess I'm just having too many thoughts right now.

By the way, I had to flock that post from earlier about the community, so certain people won't see it before they're supposed to, but if anyone wants it... mail me echo_liz(at)hotmail(dot)com.

Odd side note... Gary Oldman was in a GNR video.

Really? Did the show say which one?

They didn't say, but I just knew. Then and now. I knew this first time I saw the video way back when. Like I said, I've been an Oldman fan for half my life. It was GNR's cover of "Since I Don't Have You" from the "The Spaghetti Incident" album.
