    Liam Gallagher. I know he's bit of an eejit but he's entertaining dammit.

    Jean D'Arc. Crazy bitch went to war on a horse, pretended to be a bloke when it was against the law to do so and rallied a nation to arms and led them on the battlefield. I don't think she took any drugs btw.

    4 flagons in the one night, ate two raw batter burgers for breakfast and was at the corner with his lunch at 7.30 for the lift. Terrible temper on him though.

    This dude - not my "favourite" (way too extreme) but probably out-crazies any hellraiser.

    According to him, Sid Vicious was a "pussy". :pac:

    You can't expect to be topping a list of hellraisers if you're swanning around sober for the last...so many years.

    Olly Reed and Keith Moon went out in a blaze of glory! :)

    Screamin Jay Hawkins



    Apparently, he first recorded this song while having a blackout. He's also supposed to have fathered over 50 children, which must have been noisy. :eek:

    Him & Mother Theresa. They once fought each other for 4 hours for the last mouthful of a Quinnsworth Yellow Pack Lager can.

    Sid, contrary to the myths that have grown around him, was a bit of an innocent eejit. This would be in stark contrast to world class debauched hedonists like Lemmy or Keith Richards.

    ...at the 'lark in the park' out in Dun Laoghaire. The "melee near the sea" as it was known. I'd accidentally drunk meself into a coma and missed the whole thing.

    Very much so, on a number of levels.

    Well I would have my suspicions about anyone who lasted longer than thirty, maybe they were only faking it, although James Brown deserves a mention.

    If anyone wants to learn how to be serious hellraiser, I strongly recommend this book. Absolute legends, all four of them.

    Thats right, Mother Theresa messed up Ghandi with an obnoxious cocktail of Scrumpy Jack, Yellow Pack Lager, Babycham & White Spirits that he had to wear
    nappies in his later years
