It. Was. A. Joke. And a throwaway joke, at that. Be offended by the joke or not, but it takes a special combination of hubris and paranoia to read that piece and believe that it has "apparently been put up to discredit [DDY's] integrity and good name!"

In a context that harmless? I wouldn't really care. But even if it was something that I did find offensive, I believe that there are much better ways to deal with it than the example we see in this thread's first post.



LOL, as I have often said in regard to Styx, paranoia is its own reward. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Well at least he had the sense not to mess with that shit....Unlike Coke Boy Tommy Shaw.


yeah, REALLY!!! NOBODY ELSE did drugs back then, aside from Coke Boy Tommy Shaw!!!

:roll:


I love how some of you bathwater drinkers can totaly dismiss Tommy Shaw for engaging in numerous illegal acts.... Glad to see the money you paid out in concert tickets and albums went and financed his drug problem?

It's just that, just like Tommy, we've gotten over it. Leave it to rajah to miss the point entirely.

oh come on now- give me a break!!! you make it seem like Tommy is the only person who ever engaged in "numerous illegal acts". Just about EVERY MAJOR RECORDING ARTIST EVER has done drugs. Do you want a list? Should we start with the beatles, stones, floyd, the who, CSN&Y, James Taylor, Aerosmith, Ozzy, the doors....ELVIS?????

so i take it your record collection only contains music by DDY, Ted Nugent, Donnie & Marie (and that's just a guess... D&M may very well have done drugs).
