Widow Couldn't Stop Slayer's Jeff Hanneman From Drinking
. She tells Guitar World: "I would express my concern and he would back off for a few months, but then he would go right back. I did notice that Jeff was relying on alcohol to start his day off � but I couldn't say very much because I knew we'd wind up in a verbal confrontation. "I did drink with him, sometimes quite heavily; I figured if I couldn't beat him, join him. But eventually I realised I couldn't go on like that, and if I stopped, I might be able to get him away from it too. "But I couldn't. He just relied on it too much to get him through the day." Meanwhile, Slayer frontman Tom Araya says Hanneman was finding it increasingly more difficult to perform even before the 2011 spider bite that was to contribute to his death.
