Yes that exactly it. He did a tell all interview in Raw Magazine, and a few months later he was gone.
He did like to party a lot but so did others in the band. He wasn't the greatest bass player in the world, but he was hired for his Rock n Roll image.
The stuff about him turning up to the studio drunk is rubbish. It's common knowledge that he hadn't played on a Bon Jovi album since 7800 and Jon used Hugh MacDonland is the studio way before he started playing live with the band, so he had no reason to turn up to the studio. Hugh played on Runaway before Alec joined and Jon always preferred his playing, but he didn't have the right image for the band at the time.
