He is correct.. he is lucky to be alive. "He struggled with addiction to alcohol, prescription drugs, cocaine and heroin. “Because I’m in recovery from alcoholism and addiction to substances, I consider it a great thing to be alive at all. By rights I should have kicked the bucket a long time ago. “For some reason I was plucked from the jaws of hell and given another chance,’ he said. In one interview, two years ago, he paid tribute to another rock legend, JJ Cale, who he credits with getting him through his darkest days." JohnnyDos and ANGUS 2

Outstanding show. Not sure if it's the drugs or just loss of dexterity from old age. I know that my fingers cramp up and aren't nearly as nimble as they were 20 years ago. Any guy over 50 knows that part of a routine physical is grabbing the doctors fingers and seeing how hard you can hang onto them. JohnnyDos and hxtr 2 Awards
