He aged rapidly in the late 90s, then sort of levelled off in the 00s, now the years of abuse are really taking their toll. He's still on the ale of course, probably the coke too.

On a hiding to nothing sadly
Hope he cops himself on
I think Eleni, his Greek wife of 15 years or so, was a steadying influence, hence the levelling off of the aging during the 00s. Now she's gone and he's got this new bird half his age, I suspect he's trying to be 30 again and he can't hack it. She's bad news I'm sure of it.
He looks a right state if you ask me. He must need the money badly to go on stage and perform when he obviously is suffering.....from something.
Exactly it @itchy, a band such as The Fall does not sell huge amounts of records, live performances are the bread and butter. MES is not a rich man, he lives in an average semi-detached house in Prestwich, so earnings from gigs are what pay the bills.
