He was acting, John didn't drink in real life, infact in interviews he even talked about how he was against drinking, and didn't like alcohol. It was all an act he did.



Watch this interview, he talks about it here.

Good to know. Definitely increases my respect for his acting. The bathtub mannequin scene is one of the most weirdly sad funny things I've ever seen.

Yeah, he was a great actor... I like his interviews too, a very humble and well spoken human.

He is now up there with the Mustard Tiger.

So he was still a teenager when they released and toured their first two records. I remember being 17 when I first heard them. I thought I was hip just hearing them. How cool it must have been to be doing all that so young.
