Gonna have to agree with Bilbo'. I know far more people who play like a bag o' sh*te under any sort of influence in comparison to 'sober'. A playing perspective aside.. it's pretty hard to get someone whose caned all the time to get off their backside, be motivated and be responsible for any serious band tasks. - Which I think is an important part of a successful band, and a good reason why I would be unlikely to do any serious band work with a space cadet.

This is so true..... we recently had to call it a day with our drummer, great player, creative, but totally unreliable. Not so much wrecked at practice or a gig more to do with the after effects of a heavy night..too tired, too hungover, too much like head work if you ask me.
