Even Drugs Couldn’t Stop Them
NEW YORK, NY - NOVEMBER 15: Keith Richards of The Rolling Stones attends The Rolling Stones celebrate the North American debut of Exhibitionism at Industria in the West Village on November 15, 2016 in New York City.
ListVerse.com has compiled a list of “10 Musicians Still Alive After Insane Drug Use.”
What’s surprising is not who made the list but who they left out. So, with that, here are the selections:
- Ozzy Osbourne
- Nikki Sixx
- Duff McKagan
- John Frusciante (ex-Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist)
- Steven Adler (ex-Guns N’ Roses drummer)
- Shane MacGowan (The Pogues)
- Stevie Nicks
- Elton John
- Keith Richards
- Mick Fleetwood
Here are some that certainly could have easily made the list:
- Mick Jagger
- Steven Tyler
- Joe Perry
- Ginger Baker
- Eric Clapton
- David Crosby
- Ace Frehley
- Billy Idol
- Joe Walsh
- Brian Wilson
- Pete Townshend
Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf!
Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio.
