Ryan Adams is furious at the L.A. Times over a recent concert review from his Thursday (December 4) performance opening up for Oasis at the Staple Center.
The reviewer, Mikael Wood, suggested that Adams, who has been sober for more than two years after a substance abuse problem, was under the influence during the performance.
