Amazing some are still alive and I dare say some may never die like Keith Richards and David Crosby.

(And some have had some work as there is no way they could look that young and be days away from 80.)

Some of them look their age and some look older than their age.

Listening to the Stones right now. Lots of good music in there. I could listen to all of those on this list.

I'm convinced that "Granddude" Sir Paul McCartney, will never die.

You can tell I am a bit younger as I was thinking of stuff off Tattoo You such at "Start Me Up' or 'Waiting on a Friend." Early 80s stuff.

I will never forget reading an article about the Stones when I was in high school. This is probably about 1981 or so. It said that if someone wanted to go see the Stones in concert it probably needed to be soon because nobody wanted to watch them when they became old and silly. According the article that time was about then. That was only about 38 years ago.

Hey my wife saw the Stones on their US tour in 1964 in Virginia Beach - still loves them - I really don't know how those guys are still alive - can you imagine the mountains of drugs, the lakes of alcohol, the million women - Wow - UNBELIEVABLE !!! :shock:

Shelter is a close second for me. Love Paint it Black at the end of the Devils Advocate film.

Makes you wonder if they could truly have the key to healthy living. Screw organic food, just abuse Drugs and Alcohol and get busy with everything that walks.
