iamsuperdan Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 A buddy and I have discussed this for years. https://theweek.com/articles/861750/coming-death-just-about-every-rock-legend It's a bummer, but it's reality. The same goes for all of those classic actors/actresses from the 60s and 70s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SfanGoch Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I posted that same article on a FB group page last week. Something to ponder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake45 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Well, all my favorite cars are now 50 or more years old. (Was I interested in 50 year old cars in 1969? I was not.) And most of my favorite airplanes are now 75 or more years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slusher Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 If you listen to the radio many of the guys I listen to and liked are dead or way up there in age. I don’t know but many had habits that did not help the cause.. just all the touring had to be really stressful... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STYRENE-SURFER Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 I think they cloned Kieth sometime back in the eighties so he will outlive them all.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugatti Fan Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 And the Stones keep rolling along!!!!!! Must have out survived just about every other rock group with most of their original members still performing.Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Charlie Watts. Bill Wyman the original bass guitarist (known as the Ghost and played a Vox Phantom Bass Guitar) is still around with another group that he formed after leaving the Stones. Ronnie Wood has been with them a long time now having joined them from the Small Faces after the sad demise of Brian Jones, one of the original members.

(Was I interested in 50 year old cars in 1969? I was not.) And most of my favorite airplanes are now 75 or more years old. I got it pretty much the same, the cars that I like where mostly made before ca 1970 (I do like quite a few from the 70s aswell) and the movies I like are mostly made between 1960 and 1980. The music I like is mostly from post WWII and untill about late 80s. I prefer piston engine propeller planes and steam locomotives. The modern cars don't really do anything for me, modern music can sometimes be good but one has to go and search it out. Modern planes are just cylinders with pointy nosecones. When I try and find a movie that I like at the cinema I really struggle. But I'm born in 1984, so more than likley I have to live for quite some time yet and seeing more and more of my heroes die and I have to see a future that I am not really interested in living in. I need a time machine, where is Doc Brown when I need him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try looking on the "modern country" format radio stations. There's a pretty decent percentage of listenable music there. BTW, I find that the two biggest influences on modern country music are...wait for it...Jimmy Buffet and Tom Petty. About 25-30% of everything you hear there could be Jimmy Buffet or Tom Petty songs.

Tom Petty seems to influence most guitar music, I cant remember many artists that dont list him, even ice t has him down as an influence for his bodycount group Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
