Can't all be Corey Taylor, Kerry King, or Randy Blythe.
Lots of Alice Cooper's and Dave Mustaine's out there to find the Lord through their recovery's higher power or respective look at their "out of control" behavior. Its honestly like 99% of people can be saved with abstract ideas and reign in their own behavior with them.
And usually it is the sobriety not the god that destroys the music you loved.
And once that happens it turns from THIS into THIS and THIS!!! The Rats in The Cellar all scurry to hide in soundproof walls.
And No, the time to see Marylin Manson was 1997 when I saw him.
My mom thought he was the new Alice Cooper, the next great Shock Rock showman, and let me go based on his MTV award show performance in 1996 where he wore Rocky Horror drag.
It seems the commonality with Alice Cooper may go further in the end.
