Poison guitarist C.C. DeVille was such a hopeless addict that he once performed half a song on MTV with his guitar unplugged.

[DeVille left the band in 1992. His replacement, Richie Kotzen, according to Maxim magazine, "seemed to be working out great, remembering to plug himself in and everything. Sadly, he was plugging something else: drummer Rikki Rockett's fiancee, leading to the most embarrassing moment involving a percussionist since the Ringo Rama album."]
