The pharmaceutical/medical industries historic reliance on opioids is certainly a problem too.
I do think some slack needs to be cut for performers who are relying on drugs to get them through performances. Many of them are attempting to treat injuries they've received from their decades of performing. Entirely different situation than some guy who just burnt out. Being a performer on the level of Tom Petty takes an extreme amount of work. Performers like that sacrifice a lot for their jobs and their fans.

lol as if. I think I sacrifice a lot more working 45 hours per week than a dude that sings songs for two hours 40 nights per year.
