Vale Malcolm Young. Would you want to be an ageing musician?

It's been a bad couple of years for them. David Bowie. Prince. Glenn Frey. Rick Parfitt. Leonard Cohen. George Michael. Tom Petty. Chuck Berry. Fats Domino. Now AC/DC rhythm guitarist and founding member Malcolm Young.

    Very sad.  But, I don't think it's any different from being an aging average person.  Doesn't matter what you do in life, we all end up in the same manner.  Lights snuffed out.

    Thing is, with the exception of Berry and Fats, none of these guys were particularly old.

    Yes.  Pick your poison..cancer, drugs, whatever.  Life's a game of Russian Roulette.  I think it's impressive Keith Richards is still standing upright.

    He used to have his blood drained and fresh blood returned to his overaddicted heroin corpse.

    Why he is still standing is anyone's guess.

    I think he's been dead for 20 years and no one's bothered to tell him.

    He's a zombie. The only way to kill him is decapitation.

    I would not like to be an aging anything.

    But if I have to age, I would like to be a rich, retired aging musician.  Or a rich retired ANYTHING for that matter.
