Ahh, you beat me to that correction! I think Blackie is worse, since it reminds me of the band W.A.S.P.

Now I ´m reading Scar Tissue. It is very strong story. His father gave him lots of drugs from Anthony´s 12 years! Spider "lent" his own girlfriend for sex when Anthony was only 13 years old! I ´m happy he is alive because his music give me too much.
