    Most Dysfunctional Band Ever

    With all the dysfunctional history of VH what comes to mind is are there any other bands who were as or more Dysfunctional as VH. I can think of two. The Temptations who had lead singer issues, and tradegies due to their successes as well as Guns-n-Roses who have an Eddie Van Halen clone as a singer.

    Thoughts...

    the Kinks,

    Oasis(not that I care)

    Black Crows (see above)

    Pantera

    CCR

    ..and probably more I don't know about.

    With the exception of Pantera, the problem was between the brothers.

    Pixies always had comunication issues.
    Mick and Keith aren't really fans of each other
    The Ramones - Joey and Johnny had a falling out after Johnny stole Joeys girl. The animosity lasted till Joey died.

    Sorum and Wieland don't get along (Velvet Revolver)

    Sting and Stewart Copeland (Stewart used to have the words "Fuck Off Sting" on his drum heads.

    The Smiths

    The Cure

    It would be much easier to list the non-dysfunctional bands.....

    Christ even The Carpenters had issues.


    Egos, Money, Fame, Lavish Lifestyles, People catering to your every whim, chemicals, pussy, critics.....

    Hmmm, what could possibly cause all of these bands to have issues?




    Take the local bar band you played in way back when, multiply that by a factor of 1,000 and you'd have the slightest inkling of what it's like under the microscope.




    If you survive with a modicum of brain cells, your publishing intact, and your sense of humor, you're already ahead of the game.




    As a side note, most successful bands are no more dysfunctional than your average small business or family for that matter.

    Falling asleep in a pool of your own urine at practice didn't help matters.

    There was also that nasty incident with the donkey on that last tour of Peurto Rico.

    Charges were never filed, right?

    Pfff if bands were non-problematic they'd be inhuman. Everyone has their issues. I can think of Simon and Garfunkel, Everly Brothers, Crosby, Still and Nash, Nightwish, any pop band, the Eagles, Helloween, Kiss, Metallica, Tarot, Steel Dragon (lol), Nirvana, Iron Maiden, Stratovarious, Whitesnake.... I'm sure there's more. *^_^* \m/

    That was no donkey,that was a waitress,man!

    But it was Kentucky......

    Never passed out during practice.....but there was that time in '93 I had a pint of JB in the breast pocket of my jacket with a straw sticking out to my mouth and I forgot to put my feet down at the stoplight.
    True story.
    But I stopped all that since

    This is in the main because...

    We're talking about other bands/artists <b>more</b> than Dave/CVH.

    Yeah, maybe we should follow Thrills' advice and shut down this ________ .

    Anything with Ronnie James Dio...

    Seriously, that guy was always leaving and coming back and then leaving again.

    GNR were pretty fucked up

    By some standards [see Black Sabbath] Oasis have been pretty damn stable over the years.

    The song was Joey taking a direct swipe at Johnny (the band's token Republican) for stealing his girlfriend. Don't how long it took Johnny to catch on to the joke, but they kept playing the song even up to their last tour.....
