(Rock News Desk) Tommy Lee remembers being astonished by a Rolling Stones performance five years ago � because they'd consumed so many drugs he was convinced they'd never be able to play a show. The Motley Crue drummer says: "Literally five minutes before they're to go on, I walk into the dressing room and Ronnie Wood and Keith Richards are f**king wasted.

"I've played many shows wasted, but these guys could barely walk. I was going, 'There's no way they'll be able to do it. They can't find the stage never mind play the right notes.

"But I was blown away � somehow they made it to the stage and as soon as the house lights went off it was just flawless. I was like, 'I cannot believe what I just saw'." more rock news
