  • Thumb of Stone Temple Pilots' Scott Weiland (2010) video

    (#7) Stone Temple Pilots' Scott Weiland (2010)

    The late Scott Weiland had a long history of substance issues leading up to his passing in 2015. One of his most notorious incidents took place at a Stone Temple Pilots show in Houston, Texas. In footage of the show, the singer goes on a bizarre rant about "god and friendship," admitting that he'd recently started drinking and noticeably slurring his words.

    The show was made worse by the fact that the set was shortened and they had a late start - furthering the concern over Weiland's drinking.

    (#2) Nirvana's Kurt Cobain (1991)

    While on tour in 1991 prior to the massive success they achieved with "Smells Like Teen Spirit," Nirvana played a sloppy version of the Nevermind cut "In Bloom," complete with plenty of stumbles both literally and musically. At the beginning of a clip of the incident, singer/guitarist Kurt Cobain can be seen swerving around the stage and staggering his way through the performance.

    The tour in question, a double-header that also featured Sonic Youth, was full of drinking and partying - as told by Dave Markey, a friend of Sonic Youth who accompanied the bands and filmed the festivities. That tour also brought Cobain together with Courtney Love, who was dating Smashing Pumpkins' Billy Corgan at the time and attended the Rotterdam show. 

  • Thumb of Creed's Scott Stapp (2002) video

    (#9) Creed's Scott Stapp (2002)

    A 2002 Creed concert in Chicago was so drunkenly bad, fans collectively sued the group members over their shared experience. The lawsuit claimed that singer Scott Stapp was "so intoxicated and/or medicated" that he was unable to sing.

    "Stapp left the stage on several occasions during songs for long periods of time, rolled around on the floor of the stage in apparent pain or distress, and appeared to pass out while on stage during the performance," the suit alleged

    The band subsequently issued a statement apologizing for the performance, in which they attempted to spin it as "the most unique of all Creed shows" and a part of "rock and roll history."

  • Thumb of The Replacements (1986) video

    (#11) The Replacements (1986)

    The Replacements' 1986 appearance on Saturday Night Live got them banned from the show and cemented their legacy as one of the most unpredictable live bands in history. The story goes that the band members, in particular, guitarist Bob Stinson, had been drinking throughout the day and were extremely loosened up by the time they went live.

    During the performance, singer Paul Westerberg stumbled through the vocals and occasionally went off mic to wander around the stage. At one point, he turned to Stinson and said, "Come on, f*cker!" to the outrage of the network. The group were banned from SNL by creator Lorne Michaels. 

  • Thumb of Guns N' Roses' Slash (1991) video

    (#3) Guns N' Roses' Slash (1991)

    Guns N' Roses arrived on the scene with a reputation for intense debauchery and incredibly sloppy performances. One of those performances happened in 1991 when guitarist Slash struggled to play the intro to the band's hit "Welcome to the Jungle" - seemingly too inebriated to comprehend the notes he was playing. 

    The previous year, the legendary hard rock guitarist made headlines for cursing at the American Music Awards. 

    "I don’t know what I said onstage, but it was short and sweet. I don’t think there were too many 'f*cks' in it," he later said of the event.

  • Thumb of Avril Lavigne (2009) video

    (#5) Avril Lavigne (2009)

    In 2009, Avril Lavigne appeared as a guest of comedic glam metal band Steel Panther, and fans reported she was seemingly drunk as she performed "I Love Rock 'n Roll" (written by Alan Merrill and made famous by Joan Jett & The Blackhearts). Lavigne's spirited performance was completely off key, and more than a little embarrassing.

    Lavigne has a history with Steel Panther - she reportedly almost had them at her wedding. When the "Complicated" singer married Chad Kroeger, the band was rumored to be their choice for entertainment.

    The band announced on their YouTube page:

    We're going to a wedding. We are going to be playing at 'Chaz' and Avril Lavigne's wedding. We've never been to a wedding before … obviously, nobody in our band has ever gotten married, none of our parents ever got married. I don't even know who my Dad is.
