The Midnight Rider on Sobriety

January 29th, 2010 · No Comments


No Bad Movie Friday this week, in part because we had a change of heart about calling out the 1993 Bruce Willis vehicle Striking Distance. Yes, it was almost certainly pitched to the producers as “Die Hard meets Serpico…on the water!” And we’ll never, ever buy Sarah Jessica Parker as a Pittsburgh cop. But watching the trailer reminded reminded us that it’s not aggressively terrible, just relentlessly average. It would thus be unfair to lump it into the same shameful category as Hard Ticket to Hawaii.

So we’re gonna leave you instead with a post that hews to today’s addiction theme: a snippet from a 1982 interview with Gregg Allman, a man who knows a thing or two about wrestling with the lure of lotus eating. We’ve got the clip cued up to the best part, so no need to wade through Allman’s less eloquent musings.

Also, that hair absolutely rules.
