Because the mental image is Leather jackets and trousers( a la Slash ) in a biker type way ,,,,,,,drug abuse in an Aerosmith way .....and then all the chucking TVs out of Hotel Windows in a Joe Walsh way fuelled by drugs and drink.......discarded empty bottles of Jack Daniels like Jagger ,Townsend etc did 50 years ago .Philly_Q said:Why does it have to be hard living?

Of course , the biggest thing is the Fuck it attitude .......which is a pre-requisite for the job.
Then there's the various props like Ferraris ,Lambos and groupies .
It's a dirty job but someone's got to do it !
We’re all spinning on a rock hurtling through space that seems meaningless to the rest of the universe.topdog91 said:What's the point of a thread that could be answered by Google or ChatGPT?
Ah, the quintessential rock guitarists who truly lived the lifestyle! Here are some iconic examples:
Keith Richards of The Rolling Stones - Perhaps the ultimate embodiment of the hard-living rock guitarist. His survival despite decades of legendary excess has become almost mythical in rock history.
Slash from Guns N' Roses - Embodied the 80s/90s Sunset Strip lifestyle completely, with the top hat, cigarette, and Les Paul becoming iconic symbols of rock guitar.
Johnny Thunders of The New York Dolls - A proto-punk pioneer who lived fast and wild, influencing countless guitarists with both his playing style and his persona.
Eddie Van Halen - Though he had a cleaner image later, his early years with Van Halen epitomized the touring rock lifestyle of the late 70s and 80s.
