The thread title might seem fucked up but it's purely for generating discussion / dicking around.
Recovery/sobriety can tame some people to the point where they are a lot less fun/entertaining then they were when they were using. While I would never wish relapse on a person who has struggled with addiction in the past, I don't mind speculating who would go back to being the life of the party if they picked up again.
For me it would probably be Anthony Kiedis. I think that he's gone way too soft since getting clean, and his whole 'life is so beautiful' persona seems a little bullshit to me. I preferred the days when he would cash a fat check and then go downtown and buy out every heroin and crack dealers supply, then hit up a hotel room with a few ho's and party it up for a few months until the band came knocking on his door pleading for him to quit. Then he would get a plane ticket and fly to an exotic island to kick, while swimming with dolphins and getting massages everyday until he was ready to return to the states. Then he would cut another record, go on tour, then blow all the money on drugs again. Rinse, lather, repeat....
So does anybody else have a favorite famous drug addict that they lost to recovery?
