Saw him as a smacked-up junkie when Crash and Burn was riding high, probably 1992-ish.
They were OK, but nothing special..........they've become a polished act now, albeit sold out, but some catchy riffs and a decent frontman.
Im sure Richies 'Royalties' are now paid to his parents which basically says hes dead, even 'presumed dead' is his official state now.

Alot of bands dont exactly need to be good muscians to be good bands, they just need presence which the manics had back in the early 90's.
Same with Pete Doherty, shit muscian, good presence and junkie scum, kids of today lap that shit up sadly.
Velvet Underground werent that great and thats from them but their presnece and drug abuse took them to great heights of scandal that blew their legend higher

One of the finest things to come out of Wales, along with Katherine Jenkins bottom, Alex of the One Show's scones and the M4!! Design for Life is one of those songs that everyone loves, a great sing a long number.
