Hmmm, where do I begin?!

Sid Vicious, was in the Sex Pistols, and Nancy Spungeon, his Jewish bottle blonde stripper groupie girlfriend (and very bad news for Sid).

They lived life on the edge, with loads of cash, kind of like Tammy and George did.

That's why I think they're similar. George had liquor, Sid and Nancy, like Kurt and Courtney later, heroin.

Can you say major destructive relationship, yet it was great drama to read about?

Anyways, Sid DID kill Nancy, then killed himself. They'd had a double suicide pact.

Kurt killed himself.

Tammy and George never got over each other, but moved on to other people after George took a gun and tried to kill Tammy.

So much DRAMA! Great to read about, but thank goodness we live in different times. Dramatic relationships are too much!

Some have speculated that Sid DIDN'T kill Nancy--there was a gathering of musicians in their hotel room that night and they claimed that there was a very creepy drug dealer in the room with them (nobody knew the guy's name). The party moved on and Sid and Nancy stayed at their hotel room with the drug dealer. There was some speculation that Nancy may have caught this guy ripping them off, confronted him and taken a knife in the stomach for this. Sid was zonked on heroin the entire night, according to the friends.

Of course, maybe they were covering for Sid. We'll never know.

"I dreamed we had a dog. It was really little, but we loved it. And then it got sick, and it died. But we loved it so we didn't want to have to get rid of it. So...we ate it." (From the movie 'Sid and Nancy', with two of the best cinematic performances ever, provided by Gary Oldman and Chloe Webb.)

Hard to imagine a gal being "bad news" for someone named Sid Vicious!

I just hope ol' Sid never tried to do a rendition of He Stopped Lovin' Her Today
