SWW was the hardest tour for jon especially because of his voice but i guess by the end of the NJ tour they were absolutely burnt out.

drug-wise, i guess they've all dabbled in one way or another. jon wasn't a drug user. i know alec and richie were. the other two probably did from time to time but not to the extent of richie and alec.

They all look too healthy to have had any major addictions to drugs.

Tico is a recovering alcoholic. He stopped drinking in the early 90's.

I read that too but on the other hand I've seen him with a glass of beer 3 years back. It could be alcohol free of course I didn't ask but I wondered.

Tico's actually talked about it in interviews (audio/video), so it's not just a print rumor. Also Jon has talked about how proud they all are of Tico because he gave up alcohol and how much he's changed since he got sober. It must take a lot of strength for him to not drink when he's in the enviroment he's in.
