Has Spider quit drinking (alcohol) completley?

with the tossers he was drinking water on stage and i have heard he is fond of o'douls. so i guess the answer is yes he has quit.

apparently neither spider, philip or terry drink and haven't for quite some time. nor does tom waits or steve earle. does anyone see a pattern emerging!

Nor Jem.

But if you look at the reunion pictures (the last picture) on http://www.spiderstacy.com/, isnt Spider and Andrew holding a glass of lager. Jem is holding some "mysterious black stuff"....

They do appear to be drinking liquids with color. The reasonable assumption is lager and stout.

Perhaps as a habit they no longer drink, but still have the occasional glass "for old times" when being social?

maybe it was o'douls or the british equivalent. actually, do you get british beer or is it all imported?

Spider has quit drinking - he drinks non-alcoholic lager such as 'Kaliber' which is made by Guinness. I was under the impression Jem still has a social drink - I know for sure his wife does!

Well I had a pint with Jem not so long ago, so there we are. Darryl too. Andrew and James enjoy a sensible tipple. Think only Spider, Terrence and Phil are the, um, quitters. Oh and Shane. He hasn't touched a drop since 1987.

Hey Guest - no offence intended - I think you mean to say 1997.

cheers Andy.

I think he's having a laugh, andy!

I always wonder who those guests are that come on here and obviously know us like the one above who went for a pint with Jem and Darryl. More of a passing thought really.

People with very vivid imaginations?

Hmm.......thinking about it, I don't think I have ever actually "gone for a pint" with either Jem or Darryl myself.

Well, that's what I was thinking. A dry martini on the terrace before dinner in the old days, perhaps.
