There is a photo of Linda on a tour bus looking spaced-out or sad/lonely (IMO) she is sitting on the inside, beside a female fellow passenger. It was shown in TSOMV movie.

To me, she looks tired and exhausted. And we'd probably be too if we spent days on end on tour buses or planes.

Since this thread, Linda has affirmed she never injected anything.
Generally, Linda knew how important her voice was to her success, and would not risk damaging it.
Linda did get reported as having flu & colds, probably travelling as much as she did. She said flying gave her sinus trouble and preferred going places by road to air. I can relate to that.

Quote by RLW: I think it was David Geffen who said that. Diet pills were indeed Linda's prime pharmaceutical "obsession", such as it was. She was always insecure about her weight during the apex of her popularity. There was an article in Rolling Stone on Linda which highlighted her insecurity about her weight. She had gained weight, and had gone on a diet of eating nothing but oranges. Think it was just for a week, but she lost something like twelve pounds. I don't know if that diet was approved by her physician or dietician (if she had one), but it's a miracle she didn't seem to suffer any serious health problems. Doctors these days recommend that if you're trying to lose weight, you don't lose more than one or two pounds per week. I think the reason is you can lose too much of your electrolytes and you end up with all sorts of problems. Karen Carpenter's anorexia nervosa which killed her caused her to lose too many electrolytes, which may have been the cause of her heart stopping. And one rumor about Elvis was that he was losing too much weight in too short a time and then regaining the weight also in too short a time, and his body wasn't able to handle it because of the loss of the electrolytes. And that caused his heart to stop. Fortunately, Linda's dieting didn't lead to any serious health complications. Maybe she listened to her doctor and stayed away from every fad diet there was, which promised someone they would lose weight and keep it off.` This article is interesting about Linda's size-awareness whatsheonaboutnow.blogspot.com/2011/11/my-strange-afternoon-with-linda.html also this post forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/has-linda-ronstadt-been-forgotten.313901/page-2#post-8714074

There is a photo of Linda on a tour bus looking spaced-out or sad/lonely (IMO) she is sitting on the inside, beside a female fellow passenger. It was shown in TSOMV movie. This is the photo, what do you think? I think that's a guy sitting next to Linda. Possibly one of the Rolling Stone reporters who did articles on Linda and seem to have access to her. Linda often complained about being the only female on board, so she got her mom to go on the tour with her. The party sitting next to her doesn't look like her mom. As for Linda, I think she was just tired and bored. Going from getting on a jet to the city where you're going to play, getting checked in at the hotel and trying to get enough sleep, getting up and getting something to eat, doing the soundchecks, possibly going back to the hotel for a little more rest, then checking out of the hotel to go do the concert, the back on the plane to the next venue. That would get old. And tiring. Elvis often complained he didn't know what day it was when he was on tour. The Beatles had the same complaint as did many others. Touring was regarded as a necessary evil but I've never known an artist who truly liked the grind. It took a lot out of a person and took longer and longer to recover.

I expect they must have got jet lagged too flying across time zones.
One of the many reasons ABBA broke up was that Agnetha hated flying and got travel sick.

Linda remains my addiction perhaps of choice, perhaps not of choice. I am not fond of her politics, nor her practicing atheism. i still love her and have enough faith in the Creator for the both of us.
