Could be any kind of performer be it comedian, podcaster, actor, etc.
He got sober in the 90s, but Elton John was notorious for using shit-tons of cocaine back in the day and was an alcoholic as well.
The Kills used to put on some of the sloppiest and rowdiest drunk concerts, they were dope. They’ve since gotten sober, and while the music is better, I miss the messy shows.
Till Schweiger. Got i hate him. He always plays his drunk arrogant egoistic asshole self
The Replacements have a history of playing shows completely wasted. There’s particular Saturday night live episode where they ended up getting banned from playing on ever again.
Buddy of mine went to see Joe Cocker and dude passed out at the mic before singing anything. They refunded everyone.
Weirdly, killed by lung cancer instead…
I wonder what would everyone do if instead he sang out of tune?
I don’t know, man, I think I might just stand up and walk out on him
oh baby now!
Pete Hegseth, US Secretary of Defense under Donald Trump
Real Americans maintain a constant BAC of 0.1776! He’s a PatriotTM damnit!
After twelve drinks the Probably War Crime and Definitely War Crime buttons look basically the same, and there’s a fucking lot of them
You win let’s close this up.
“entertainer”
he’s a clown, that counts i guess
He’s ordered a fully equipped makeup studio installed in the Pentagon. If a dressing room is not the sign of an entertainer, what is?
I mean, I’m not really disagreeing because US politics is like wrestling drama lol
“Secretary of WAR!” - screams Pete drunkenly, probably
This was my first thought as well
As a kid I didn’t get the drunk Dean Martin jokes on Bugs Bunny. Watching him on old roast videos, yeah, he was fucking hammered 24/7.
Go check some Don Rickels roasts! The man was fucking brutal, thought Sinatra was going to cap his ass on the spot when Don joked about Frank’s mob ties. Kissing Sammy Davis Jr., “Did I get any black on me?”
Dean Martin was faking it. He barely drank, and was not a partier. It was all an act.
Rickles had ZERO chill. fuckin hilarious though.
My high school music teacher went to a Dragonforce concert circa 2008. He said they were completely wasted, didn’t sound anything like the album, and barely knew where they were. Just an absolute waste of time. He got an autograph from one of them (must’ve paid for a VIP ticket or something) and they wrote “wish I didn’t have to meet you, asshole.”
He liked them a lot less after that
Guns and Roses pulled that shit on me on '91. Couldn’t even tell what song Axle was on he was so fucking wasted. And the acoustics were awful.
We were tripping acid and got turned around on the road trip to OKC, missed some opening band called Smashing Pumpkins.
Alestorm. They play pirate drinking metal, so it’s pretty on brand
I’m pretty sure they are not drunk during shows. IIRC they got rid of one guy who couldn’t hold his drink.
Ron White i believe
Ron White is sober now. Also retired from comedy, I believe. Probably true in his heyday.
He was in South America and tripped on ayahuasca, never drank again I believe.
The singer of Smash Mouth seemed to really hate that people only cared about All Star. His latest shows were) had some drunk rants. He’s dead now
somebody
You mean the guy who drank himself to death after performing at Sturgis during COVID?
Chris Jericho? Oh the “to death” part hasn’t materialized yet, just the 80lbs of booze weight.
Dylan Moran, maybe not drunk necessarily but he is always drinking wine on the stage during his sets from memory.
Moran quit smoking in 2014 and became teetotal in 2018, but has since resumed drinking.
Good for him
Shane MacGowan. Exhibit A: Irish Rover (he comes in around 0:38)
Me … on our podcast.
I’m an 80’s boy, and a documentary was made about my rock stars and their drinking habits (among other things).
The Decline of Western Civilization Part II: The Metal Years
As an extra aside, I can’t imagine that Lemmy spent any day sober since leaving Hawkwind until the day he died. When he was told he was sick and needed to stop drinking, he gave up whiskey and started drinking a case or more of wine every day. God, I miss Lemmy. 😁
