yep, the old "Fish Store" remedy was what all of us who were in touring bands back in the 1980's always used.
I confirmed the validity of that from a drummer who was in one of my bands. His sister was a RN and told us that the antibiotics for fish were exactly the same thing as the doctors prescribed.
Every band and every booking agent on the circuit knew about that. It was one of the old "carny" tricks that entertainers have always used.
So the pet store owners (this was before the big PetSmart and Petco stores existed), would see a bunch of longhaired, pale white vampire looking motherfuckers all dressed in black visit the store and buy out their entire stock of antibiotics. lol
