I was cracking up the whole time. I mean, honestly, who story boards this out and is like "yes, yes to all of this."

Not even gonna watch it. Have never was able to get this out of my mind when the subjects of "Chris Holmes" or "Wasp" came up. What a piece of shit that guy was (maybe still is).

Good to see Chris Holmes is doing well musically, physically and mentally.


Sounds like he could contribute to our drum jams.

At least it has more production value than his past video, "They all lie and cheat".
Looks like this video has a real drumset in the background and not the Alesis electronic kit.

hope the stories are true about him being clean but what away to burn out . Remember Lita left him over that , she was in her prime too safe to say a "9.5/10" back in her day .

It was pretty much that way through the whole show (Decline of Western Civilization, Part II). My friends and I went to see it when it came out - went in drunk and everything, thinking we were gonna see a bitchin' rock movie, and came out totally depressed :sigh:

Yup, and no title. A friend was selling it for him because he had moved out of the country at the time it went up for sale. Or so the legend goes.

Yet he couldn't afford someone to sit in on the drumset for the video :lol:

Dude is apparently a fan of chorus. And meth. I loved WASP back in the day (first 3 albums). They were my first concert. Lots of blood and raw meat thrown around that night. It is sad, yet not at all surprising that he turned out this way.

Started video, turned off when he's walking down the road in his flip-off jean jacket smiling.

Honestly, on a certain level it's impressive he's still alive the way he treated himself in the eighties. I remember watching Western Decline II and thinking in a movie filled with burnt out rockers, he seemed to officially be the most burnt out.

I need to find a copy of that movie. We used to watch that a lot, but I haven't seen it in years now.

But am curious.

You'd dig the first one. It is about punk. Second one was good to a degree but was a little too failed hair-metal oriented iirc.
