Ageing rock stars: hope I die before I get old?

McCartney mid 70s. Try Band on the run, tolerable.

yea, borring as shit on a stick.

[Dries van Tonder]

This is one of the reasons I drink and smoke, I can't stand the thought of getting so old that I can't control my shit and piss, dementia (Alzheimers) and so forth. I'd rather die early than to go through that torture

Keith Richards is indestructible.
God has a poster of him on his wall.
He is the blackest white man on the planet.
He has wrote some of the best rock music ever.
He has taken more drugs than anyone else - dead or alive.
And yes, believe it or not, he was a choir boy who sang in front of the Queen.
Everything you have ever read about him is absolutely true - apart from the blood exchange.

[Coito ergo sum]

Current reigning "aging rock star" champion is:

David 'Honeyboy' Edwards - 95 years, 11 months, 24 days old. He was born on 28 June 1915. Delta blues guitarist.

If he's not considered a "rock star," maybe it's Pete Seegar - he's 92. Pete is folk musician, so that might count either.

If neither of them count, then I would say it has to fall to Chuck Berry. He's 84 years old.

[Ironclad]

Lemmy can't die it's THE RULES !

I think the magic wart has granted him eternal life.
