Something tells me that he does, and that when he was telling Stone that
he "doesn't do that shit" he was being facetious. I have one boot from
the Bay Area where he said that if anyone would be willing to give him
some good acid, and they wrote a song whilst on it, he'd give the person
co-credit for the song.

Not that this constitutes anything resembling definitive proof, but I
rather suspect that most of the guys in the band do at least some drugs.

I guess my question is why do YOU believe so firmly that he doesn't?
Moreover, why would it be so awful if he did? I think I'd prefer it if
he laid off the bottle and smoked more grass, since it's a lot less
dangerous (in the short term).

Please, name the sources... don't just say that you have them. I can't
accept anyone's word as truth and I don't know to what extent I'll
believe an article. Articles, though, are more than someone saying, 'I
seem to recall when someone said....'
Thanks

Also...on Much Music (Canada's Video Station) Eddie was on and he mentioned
an upcoming Henry Rollins show he said:

"You guys are real lucky up here to have a guy like Henry Rollins playing
in your city. I..uh..really recommend taking a couple of hits of acid and
checking him out."

I have this interview on video.

So whether Eddie does drugs (and I'm sure he does-doesn't everybody :-)
he certainly endorses them.

I agree! I heard that Courtny Love checks out stuff about her band. If
Pearl Jam are reading, please post! We love you guys! We are like another
little fan club! At least let us know if you're there. :)

In the easter concert eddie sings
"fact I got two, that's OK man, cause I love FROGS"
That has been discussed on this group by people who didn't
know the words...of course it's also the name of the band!
Who knows.
