Tony O'Neill has had a wild life as a musician, writer and junkie. He's chronicled the rough part of his life in the book Digging the Vein while he was detoxing from methadone.
Daniel Robert Epstein: Is Digging the Vein autobiographical?
Tony O'Neill: Pretty much. I didn't want to write it like a memoir because I'm not really into those books. I'm more into guys like Bukowski, Hemingway or the early Burroughs stuff when they were writing exactly what happened to them...
