Discovered recently that Electric Wizard were kinda dicks back in the day. “At the time, we were pretty bad people. I got arrested for arson of a car, outside a police station. Tim [Bagshaw] went to nick a crucifix off a church roof so we could use it onstage…”
R. L. Burnside killed a man “possibly at a craps game.”
Varg of Mayhem Burzum burned a couple churches and killed a bandmate.
I could list other examples, but would like to hear from other people and other music genres.
It seems EVERY rockstar has a penchant for really young women. I’ve lost track of the number of songs about underage girls (“she’s only sixteen…”,“She was just 17” etc.) Paul Simon fell in love with a 16 year old, and took her on tour. She’s on one of his album covers.
