Where did you here about Jerry being with Sid?
That dont sound right at all.
Jerry would not have known Sid in 1979.
He was NOT there.
Only is lying.
That being sed-
I'm trying to find the piece. I saw it on something...probably VH1. I take your word on it, but it's what Only's claiming.
Misfits' Jerry Only on Getting Arrested for Grave Robbing and Sharing Sid Vicious' Last Meal
http://blogs.miaminewtimes.com/crossfade/2013/12/misfits_jerry_only_interview_miami_2013.php Here's the part about
SID VICIOUS and
JERRY ONLY:
"I read online that you had dinner with Sid Vicious the day he died. Is that true?
Yeah. That was sad. You think all these people in bands have such a great life? You gotta be careful. Sid had just gotten out of jail for murder. He hadn't stood trial, so we don't know the details of whether he actually killed Nancy. He took that secret to the grave. But I'll tell you this: he and Nancy were staying at the Chelsea Hotel, which was full of junkies. And they all knew that Sid had just made five grand for playing Max's Kansas City. Sid and Nancy took that money and bought dope and she got stabbed. That's all we know. It could have been anyone that did it.
I had met Sid's mother at the Max's Kansas City show, and I was driving her around town while Sid was in jail, helping her do stuff 'cause she was from England, y'know. We had made him dinner the night he got out and talked about doing great things. He was on and on about all the things he wanted to do. Meanwhile, he was shooting dope all night and overdosed twice while I was there. It's one thing to talk about doing karate and starting a new band, and utilizing your fame for something greater. And it's another thing to talk about it with a needle in your arm while you're turning blue.
My brother Doyle was 14 years old at the time and had just played the Misfits' "Walk Among Us" stuff, so I offered to Sid that we could back him up on guitars. I said, "Look, you're in the public eye. That 'My Way' is about the coolest thing you've ever done. You could be the biggest thing in the world. We'll back you up." But he didn't give a s**t about himself, about his mom, about facing murder charges. He just sat there and shot dope. He'd got clean being in jail for a month, came out and started shooting almost pure heroin. They got him really killer s**t and he couldn't handle it.
I said, "I ain't gonna drag me and my brother into this s**t. If you're gonna just kill yourself, f**k this s**t."
So we went back to work, driving to Connecticut and delivering machine parts for the family business.
The police never questioned me for some reason.
What was his last meal?
Spaghetti Bolognese. I'm Italian, y'know. We made a red sauce, and his mom threw a bunch of big vegetables in. It was a kinda thin, wet sauce. It was British spaghetti. That's why when the Romans were conquering the world, they left the UK alone. They can't make spaghetti sauce anyway. "
AHD says: True or not,
ONLY's remarks are ignorant, at least once...
