Yeah definite "replaced one bad habit with another" vibe here

No doubt about that. That’s a meth head look for sure.
What a dumbass, probably goes there to dry out and gets a meth addiction too.
Sobriety isn’t for everyone. Some have to take a dirt nap.

He states,
"If you have any knowledge of A.A. [Alcoholics Anonymous] or any type of program or rehab, it only lasts so long and then you have what we call in recovery a relapse. I would go through these phases of a year or maybe two years of no drinking, and then you gradually…
"It's a typical alcoholic way of thinking: 'Well, I may as well have a drink. Why not?' And that's typical alcoholic disease thinking. 'Cause it is a disease.",
Relapses happen to those who stop working their program on the daily. Folks in a 12 step program say, "I go to meetings to find out what happens to people who stop going to meetings", and this is what happens. It's the program that reminds you of the disease and why you can't drink, however, you can't be reminded if you're not there.
So I read somewhere.

Re: Will James Kottak croak this year?
Read it on bar napkin. Point being sounded like dude goes to a few meetings and gets some time, , etc...and then stopped going to meetings (while or tour, thinking that he doesn't need them anymore, etc...), relapses, and blames the disease. Always the victim.

Re: Will James Kottak croak this year?
I love it when a racist, drunk Trumptardian piece of sh!t like ol Kotex flames out in real time. I captured some of his better Tweets not included in that Blabbergunt article. SIDE NOTE: Have you ever noticed most "celebrity" musician pieces on Blabberdouche are like 1 sentence long, maybe a short paragraph? Not our boy Kotex, they gave him fricken free reign to chatter away about his latest "setback" Here are a few of my fa-vor-ite Twitter posts -
I love this one when he got put in a time out, or possibly sh!t canned, by his band mates in Kingdom Clone. I also like that he posted the same basic thing TWICE, a week apart...He really, REALLY doesn't want you to go see a Kotex-less Kingdom Clone. Also, he misspelled his own fkn name.. but JAMS KOTEX has a nice ring to it honestly.
Before his "tragic" biff, he wanted to let all his loyal followers know that he is EXTATIC that Trump is running for president again... Oh, and he likes to re-tweet posts from that fkd up Joel Osteen guy a lot too, along with his "save the animals" and "I'm a vegan" drops - just so you remember he is a f*cking SAINT AMONGST US MORTALS!!!! I mean, how could someone so pure and ethical get sh!t canned from the Scorpions for being a drunk idiot? Ehh- what's 20 years between friends?
This is a few weeks after he tripped drunk and f*cked himself up, then "had" to stay at his sisters house (cause he's a broke, drunk f*ck) He then started attempting to sell drum equipment on Craigslist. He says the cymbals are all in "new or never-used" condition. Selling off sh!t you got when you played with the Scorps, brah? Classy. I mean, no reputable drum company is endorsing this scum bag anymore, are they?
Oh boy.... Now he's "reaching out" looking for drum "situations" ... Uh, isn't he busy booking all those Kingdong Cum gigs? I also like how in the same block of Tweets, he re-tweets his OWN POST wishing his fans a happy new year from Kingdom Come??? How does that work exactly? Is he actually the spokesperson for the band? Does he really have "ownership" in the name?? That's literally suicidal! If ANYONE in the Krangdum Carp camp is reading this, GET YOUR DOMAIN NAMES AND PASSWORDS AWAY FROM THIS DUDE!!!

He was a “local” boy.
Out of Ky, but played all the local Cincinnati bars.
Here is a live clip from Buster Brown - “Let’s Rock”
https://youtu.be/T9j-fqEWiS4
Added bonus….the singer is Johnny Edwards who was also in King Kobra and Foreigner.

Re: Will James Kottak croak this year?
Wow, nearly unrecognizable!!!!! Somebody please explain to me....how can he be SOBER and look that f'd up???? Meth was mentioned. And I guess that's it. Meth and maybe an insane amount of prescription pills?
Nobody is gonna tell him to stop posting photos? I get it that he's not a big rockstar but he's still well known around here. This is beyond sad to see. Get well and stop posting photos of yourself looking like that, dude!

Man, this guy is literally back on the streets. Addiction is brutal. He needs a lot of help right now.

Had to google to check if he had another claim to fame other than playing for Scorpions when they were at an all-time low.DonJuanDeMarco wrote: ↑Thu Jan 12, 2023 9:46 am I get it that he's not a big rockstar but he's still well known around here. This is beyond sad to see.
Nope, it's that. What a loser.
Re: Will James Kottak croak this year?
To be fair, he did play with Warrant and Kingdong Clone... So it's not like he was a total nobody. He sure figured out a way to fvck things up for himself.jens wrote: ↑Sat Jan 14, 2023 3:47 amHad to google to check if he had another claim to fame other than playing for Scorpions when they were at an all-time low.DonJuanDeMarco wrote: ↑Thu Jan 12, 2023 9:46 am I get it that he's not a big rockstar but he's still well known around here.

To be fair, he joined them when they hit that low and that low was mostly here in America. They still did very well in Europe and Japan. They did that Acoustica around 2001/2002 and that went over really well. They sold out many sheds on their "farewell" tour. They continued to do well even after they decided not to retire.jens wrote: ↑Sat Jan 14, 2023 3:47 amHad to google to check if he had another claim to fame other than playing for Scorpions when they were at an all-time low.DonJuanDeMarco wrote: ↑Thu Jan 12, 2023 9:46 am I get it that he's not a big rockstar but he's still well known around here.

Re: Will James Kottak croak this year?
This is really sad. He had an amazing gig and he managed to fuck it up. You would hope that losing that gig would have been a huge wake up call for him. Unfortunately, it wasn't. I doubt he sees 2024.

Damn...it's moved past the sell your shit to industry friends, FB marketplace, offer up, etc...stage and moved onto sell your shit on Craigslist stage. Guess a pawn shop is next.

Re: Will James Kottak croak this year?
In Europe too it was the farewell thing that put them up a major notch. Only now checked and surprised to see that was already back in 2010.Thebottomline wrote: ↑Sat Jan 14, 2023 9:06 amTo be fair, he joined them when they hit that low and that low was mostly here in America.
