    I am very happy how things have turned out for Phil; starting with quitting the alcohol. Granted, he and dear Steve had many documented adventures (the Terror Twins). But Phil changed up everything: becoming vegan, working out his body into amazing shape. It must have been very difficult for Steve to handle his best mate's changes--sadly he could not control his own deep demons. But Phil never abandoned him. He was loyal to Steve's end😢. Still loyal. Phil is a great man and a master beast on the guitar 🎸👏🎸💎

    The one thing I think Phil had bad judgement over....not attending Steve Clark's funeral. That was a bad call Phil. He thought there would be a media scrum but there was not.

    • @nathd1748
      @nathd1748 Год назад

      @starboy3741 Yes but how the FOOK would he know what Steve would've thought. Do you think Steve would've missed a bandmates funeral? Would he fook have done. Phil just thought he was too famous and it would be a media scrum. Apparently it wasn't.

      Steve Clark was heart and soul of DL and all the hits they made, he carried the band. "Women" and Pour Some SoM" were prob. made for Steve. Phil is looking good without the alcohol now.

    I used to think it was funny, but its really not. Its like being accused of a crime - except you actually did it - but you have no memory of doing it. That is terrifying.

    I'm early 60's and I still drink, and will drive myself home, BUT......., I don't go out & get shitfaced like I used to back in the day.
    If I'm out drinking, I maintain a cool head & drink to a minimum so that I don't harm anyone else. If I take myself out, that's one thing, but harming someone else isn't cool.
    I know someone who is basically a good guy, but had to spend several years in prison for killing someone else due to his own drunk driving, and he will most certainly tell you it was a stupid decision on his part.
