I read that Scott drank 3 glasses of shroom juice one Saturday night and passed out on the floor till the next morning. When he woke, he thought he had overdosed himself and was going to die. When he didn't die ... thank God ... he knew he had to clean up his act.
he said this is what inspired him to write MOP ... "Should've been dead on a Sunday morning." He said he wrote the song after waking from a bad dream around 4 a.m. and couldn't get back to sleep ... so he got up and started writing about that incident and how he felt about his life at that point in time.
I also read that he said they do still drink ... not heavy though and that as far as drugs go ... "the band is allowed to ... but not anything heavier than you can grow in your own backyard." I don't know if he was including himself in that remark or not. I also remember reading that he said he wanted to remain completely clean to be a good father for Jagger.
I never heard anything about the conditions for writing Illusion.
