do you people know what heroin is? what heroin addiction is like?
While I don't think he was on heroin the whole time, it is possible for someone to be a junky and carry on somewhat normally. This depends on:

1) if they always have access to the drug
2) if they always have the money for the drug
3) if they are mostly just using to stop withdrawal
4) if they are shooting or sniffing

It is possible jim sniffed most of his shit and then went big at night. If he was physically dependent, it is possible he did not have many of the effects of the drug except not being in withdrawal. If he had access and never went without, it's very possible he could carry on normally to everyone who didn't interact with him intimately. The band certainly knew though.

I wonder how F. Delacroix will respond to the fact that who are you

call me out again m8

-JC's probably not coming back unfortunately
-It's nice to think that Jimmy wasn't that addicted but he probably was....like how everyone wanted to believe Kurt Cobain was murdered because they don't want to believe he killed himself. Same thing. But yeah I don't actually know shit about heroin so whatever

Jimmy has said himself that he was a "complete drug addict" and "loose cannon" in that Rolling Stone interview way back in 2010 [the infamous one....white vans come to mind...].

Yep. That song has one of Jimmy's best parts, certainly Zwan era wise

I've yet to figure out how he plays that rhythm and also sing. It's so off kilter. One of the few post 2000 things he's done that impresses me.

That confession is entitled "The Athens Games" and it was where BC tried to put his foot down after JC did so much coke he went blind. Literally.

Anywho, nice to see that JC is active and posting Pumpkins stuff.

The anecdote about playing Cherub Rock until his hands bled make me feel bad. Was that in the Confessions?

I believe that is from a 2002 article named Pumpkin Seeds.
