[Mirren]

[Toe Cutter]

Gn'R, Zep & the Doors.

[VoldtaEngler]

Skinny Puppy (maybe not sex, but definatly drugs and music)
Older Manson ( he's tame now)
David Bowie

[Anarkey]

Zep
Pink Floyd
Jedtho Tull - for then

Mushroomhead

motley crew
aerosmith
pantera

[Bondage Clown]

Gwar
Lords of Acid

[Morning Glory]

minor threat

[Mindgames]

Warrant
Motley Crüe
INXS

INXS usually had people arriving for the aftershow but not caring if they saw the gig.. and Warrant's goupies gave a new meaning to "crack cocaine". MC have to be on anyone's list for the first ever dwarf-tossing insurance on a rider.

Slipknot are wholesome kids despite their image. Their 05 rider never mentioned alcohol, but was real picky over the brand of soup.

I thought they were a straight-edge group?

[TheDeathKnight]

The bands in the 70's did not have to worry about AIDS, drugs were considered ok, and the bands really were supergroups. Some of the 80's metal bands did a good job at living a decadent lifestyle. It seems like as time goes on, bands still try to party, and still try to have lots of sex, but they don't do it on as grand of a scale as they used to...

70s:

Led Zeppelin
Kiss
Rolling Stones

80's:

GnR
Motley Crue
Poison

90's:

Marilyn Manson
Courtney Love (Hole)
Ministry

Now:
??
It does not seem like there are any standout bands right now,
that really take their partying and debauchery to the outer limits...
Or maybe they do, but it's not as well-known.
