drugs = rock and roll?

if that's what you want to call it, yes.


inevitably, the drug world has been brought into this blog.
drugs are another of the many problems I have with the current music industry.
everything about drugs are glamourized in the news. sure, there are tons of prevention ads, but it's hard to really get that message across when "stars" go to rehab/jail for drug use and get TONS of media for it. or, they get caught but don't get in any legal trouble. or (this is the richest one), EVERYONE knows they're using, and they admit to using, and a simple search of their belongings would turn up illegal substances, but no one ever searches. no one wants to be a "narc" (probably to save their own skin). the health of their coworker/friend/bandmate isn't important enough to end the cruel cycle of drug use and eliminate the glamour of using. it's truly sad. and unfair, but in the wise, wise words of Scar, "Life's not fair, is it?"

peace.
