If they start doing drugs things the band touches will most likely turn into shit - family, fortune, health etc. Either the band stops doing drugs and continues to suck or they do the drugs and write good music.
Sucks don't it?
Anyone have a take on my thoughts?

As good Christians from Dublin U2 never took this route...
Another interesting thing, U2 is probably the only band from the early 80s that is still relevant... Some would suggest no, but those are the ones that are looking for a band like U2 was in the early 80s only now... U2 isn't that band anymore.
Most of you are too young to remember that U2 was often mistaken for a "Christian" rock band when they first came out because three of the members were devout...
