good luck to Andy Rourke, a fine musician who is prepared to share some his talent with some young people.The earlier nasty poster was really embarrassing, and poves that care in the community just isnt working.

                    People have weaknesses, and people make mistakes. And I respect Andy for recognizing his mistakes and overcoming his addiction.

                    If he was still using drugs, I could understand why you would be worried about his choice to teach children. But he isn't.

                    He is no longer a "smack user" so quit acting like he is.

                    Have a little empathy for another man's struggle.
