[C] [F]
[Bb] [N] Are you still writing Johnny?
Not much.
I'm gonna try to get back into it.
What inspires you to write?
Well if I was inspired I'd do it.
I had nothing to write now.
Do you write more when you're depressed or when?
No, I don't do anything when you're depressed except feel bad.
But I haven't been depressed in a long time.
That's good.
You had a time with that didn't you?
Yeah, I sure did.
The issue that we all kind of went through with the partying and the substance and yada yada yada
You really had a hard time with that stuff.
A real hard time, yeah.
How did you manage to get out of that?
Well, I put myself in rehab.
Where was that?
In New Orleans.
Really?
How long was that?
Nine months.
Wow.
And it worked?
Yeah.
What woke you up to the fact that you needed to do something?
Well, as soon as I found out I was addicted I couldn't stand it.
You know, I wanted to die.
I really thought I was going to there for a while.
Pretty scary, isn't it?
No, it was terribly scary.
It was just horrible.
That's one thing I'd change if I could.
I sure would never do heroin again.
How does all that get started?
I don't know.
Just not feeling that great about things.
It was really hard and heroin made you feel better.
You didn't care about stuff anymore.
You didn't care about
all the fans messing with you and people
coming around.
It just was an installation.
Well, I got it at a party in Los Angeles the first time a guy came up to me and gave me some for free.
That never happened again.
It's the only thing you've ever gotten for free, right?
Just about.
Jeez.
When you heard about Randy Joe, how did that hit you?
No, real hard.
Randy was a good friend.
He was a good player too, wasn't he?
He was a great bass player.
Really great.
It's one of those tragic stories.
Did you kind of think that that could have happened to you?
Sure, it could.
That's amazing.
Did you ever try to talk to him about that?
Well, I didn't know he was taking drugs anymore.
Really?
I thought [F] he'd stopped.
