i love how johnny says "this isnt gonna be another interview all about drugs is it?" and then the whole friggin interview is about drugs. that interviewer needs to smoke a joint.
This Swedish tool had got the chance to make an interview with Johnny Thunders and all he could go on about was the drug addiction. Very disappointing.
interwiever is a stupid asshole who dont give a fuck about the man himself. only wants to hear how much and what sort of drugs jt has used. maybe it makes him feel greater when he obviously is so antidrugs and all. wonder who it benefits really to go on and on and on about jt's drug habits. but then again interwiever is swedish so maybe its kind of understandable of him. really low class interwiev
I'm weaning off Suboxone right now..I don't know if taking it two years has been a good or bad idea??..Maybe rehab would have been better? Then again a month after the Subs...Right back t killing myself with Jack Daniels!!.Some of us just have very addictive personalities, have trouble living sober, have major problems to begin with..Or simply just love(d) getting loaded!?!?...As they say..It's "fun and games in the begging!"
@dgenerated At first it's a friday or weekend thing...Your back hurts, stress, bad day/bad night, good days/nights..Every excuse book!...Then there is no fun to be found!..No high!..I reached a point where I would do anything for my new 24/7 career!..I couldn't buy, sell, work, steal enough to even get a buzz!!..The you drug cocktail..Like Jerry much later in life..It started with percocet from a car wreck!..I never really even bothered with alcohol or other drugs till about 22!?!
@dgenerated I got a nice "chip" going at 27-28...You know your fucked when you're doing ANY opiate/benzo/cocaine mix!!..I literally threw my life, possessions, fiance and sanity down the drain!...So..It's time to be off the subs!..I have never felt like I did before my habit!..And go to rehab!..You have to be ready!..And do it for you!!..There is just nothing like going cold!...You'd be willing to cut off a finger to end it!..DO NOT START!!
@dgenerated i tried the same thing i just decided to keep doin what i like i am still a junkie, i tried it with methadone maybe i should try suboxone, take care
@acadx if u decide to get off the junk, i would say suboxone is the way to go. i am on it. if u are really serious about it, u dont have to go down to the methadone clinic everyday. lets face it, methadone clinics are full of junkies and u KNOW that u can score there through someone. i once scored out in the alley behind the methadone clinic. with the suboxone, u just see ur doctor once every two months and are given a prescription, just like anyone else with a medical problem. good luck
@MrTenderToe Yea Murcia was the original drummer what the hell is nolan talking about.Murcia died from a Mandrake O.D (qualuude with an anti-histimine mixed in it).
He also dealt with depression. an obvious effect from the drugs. but where most people stop in terms of thinking about JT is that he was on heroin. ok geat but that's only half of it. but the depression was hard on him. He was devestated that his kids were taken by his ex wife Julie. not too much ever talked about that but its true.
@DARRINCONNOR1 I never saw Layne past 96 and he didn't die till 02 but I heard he started to rot, like literally. Very fuckin sad. I can relate though. The problem goes deeper than just the drugs. Its all the reasons you take them in the 1st place. Life is hard without drugs. With drugs, its much easier for a while but then if you are unfortunate, they turn on you in a bad way.
@rsohlich1 Yeah I got sucked in to the wonderful world of Heroin in the late 90s, finally got clean for good August of 2008.I have a 3 year old daughter, changed my life.I had let so many people down.I made a promise to my girl that I would never let our daughter down by relapsing,and I have not used anything since that time.Its a nightmare way of living,overated.Yeah Johnny and Layne sad storys.Layne Staley quite possibly (in my opinion of course) thee greatest voice in RnR history.
@DARRINCONNOR1 Always happy to hear someone that got off H.I started at 15 in the early 90's been on methadone 16 years.I wish they had Suboxone back then in pill form.That dope shit straight ruined my life.Plus I had a real bad benzo habit still do but not as 1/2 as bad.Good Luck to you my friend
@TheRalphus666. I had thee worst Benzo habit.Xanax the worst drug of all.See when I was on Methadone and Xanax at the same time.I had to have both everyday.Couldnt have one without the other. It was agony.There was a couple times I was in the dosing line, so sick I thought for sure I was gonna pass out, or have a seizure.I kicked my pill habit 14 days, exactly 14 days of hell.I will never forget it.You wanna talk about being sick.OMG I was so sick YOU NO. Write me bak!!
@TheRalphus666 Suboxone.Never did it.Ive heard that Suboxone doesnt work very good for long time opiate abusers.Yeah like I said, i havent abused any drugs since Aug 2008.BUT your not gonna beleive this- Ive been on the Methadone clinic for 17 yrs.I fukin hate drinkin that shit.I have no reason to be on it anymore.I just cant get off it.Im down to 39mgs.Im goin down 2mgs every 14 days.God its like we lived the same life.U no I heard you can succesfully ween yourself off Xanax
@DARRINCONNOR1 I heard Suboxone dont work either for long-term opiate addicts especially methadone.2 mgs every 2 weeks is the best way to get off meth I seen people go 5 mgs a week and a few months later they are signing back up for meth treatment.I did ween off Xanax around 10 years ago.Thats funny how you said you had to have both xanax and the meth in the same way you stated,im have to have them too when I get my drink.Keep weaning off meth slow its the only way.Again good luck
@TheRalphus666 ive been on suboxone for 2 and a half years. used heroin for almost 20 yrs on and off. mostly on. it works if u do it right. i am currently on 18 mgs. if u try to get off too fast of course it will fail, so i go down on my dose once every couple months or so. but i dont know if i will ever completely get off of them. i was all the way down to 2 mgs and i relapsed cuz i never felt right. so we'll see. easier to get off than methadone or junk IMHO
PRETTY GIRLS IN THIS THING. 11:08 - SHOOTING ICE WATER ?!
Jerry still looks great , tho' I never saw him look BAD , and he expresses himself very well re. his experiences with drugs and how that's affected him.
Johnny expresses himself all right , too , he's just not as animated as Jerry , but , he's not preachy , he's trying to be honest.
@emf665 What? ICE WATER = COCAINE WITH WATER? I've never heard of that. I think that's probably speculation on your part. I've heard of Junkies shooting ice water before.....some people get so addicted to the needle they will shoot anything......and there could have been many reasons for this but I've never heard of ICE WATER = COCAINE. I think people talk a lot of bullshit on the internet and this is another case of that.
I've seen this interview a couple times. It's really just an anti-drug campaign that totally slanders Johnny. They purposely choose to show his bad performances and focus only on the negatives and never focus on the brilliant music he made. Sure he was messed up, but there will never be anyone else like him.
@retarderman: your video recording...? suck my dick asshole. Johnny T has nothing to do with you. It was his performance and it deserves to be distrubuted to everyone regardless of whoever used his own VCR to record swedish public television.
Okey !! ser att du har lagt upp min och polarens dvd video med Thunders !! hade varit roligare om du hade haft eget matrial och lägga upp.. sad but true..
Really interesting, thanks for posting this!
