Hasn't aged well? REALLY????

For almost 70, she looks great. I can't believe any of you were dogging on her.

Here's a musician almost her same age:

Isn't it odd that like Ringo, Keith has become the best looking Stone
And at times, makes the most sense.

KEEF!!!

At his age and what he has done to his body the only dirt he is worried about is staying on top of what he walks on

Im 28, so the 67 year old look just aint for me. Debbie Harry at 40, sure, call me.

Yes, but you said she had lived hard, and hadn't aged gracefully.

I was merely pointing out that for 67, she looks pretty good.

I was guessing she was probably a little older than you realized.

I met her once. We actually played the same club. First Avenue, in Minneapolis. She was on the main stage, and my originals band was on the Seventh Street Entry stage. She wasn't in Blondie at the time; she was doing jazz with a guy called Happy Apple.

She's really nice, and I always thought she was just sexy as could be.

Yeah, she is a bit older than I realized. I can agree that for 67 she doesnt look so bad.

So instead of "American Gigolo" it's "American Geriatric"?

Whenever men start arguing the easiest way to bring it to an end is to start discussing women.
It'll either turn into a similar situation, talking about attractive (or formerly attractive) women, or
we'll start talking about how much they get on our nerves.

Alright, I'm going slightly off topic here I'm sure - but I couldn't help it..... as I was leaving my old band - there was a dispute - now we were only making around $400 a gig.... and that was getting turned right around into equipment that the BL kept. After more than a year of this, I asked to be cashed out. Caused a huge fight. Now keep in mind I drove around 1 hr. there and 1 hr. back for rehearsals. Whole lot of accusations flew around, eventually the BL accused me of just being in it for the money.

Yeah. At a whopping $60 a gig $20 of it being spent on gas..... yup..... I'm doing this to get rich quick...... not.

Personally though the money is nice, but not a huge part of it. I like playing live. I would like to at least break even, if not get a few bucks ahead to buy a new strap, cord or maybe even save up for another amp or bass here or there....

Yeah. Plus, he's not exactly a Clapton type player anyway. Most of his stuff is, what's the word??...'sloppy rock' I guess.
