Researchers at the Centre for Public Health at Liverpool John Moores University have determined after an extensive study,That Rock Stars Die More Prematurely,than the average guy on the street.... DUH!!!!! Well, butter my butt and call me a biscuit. I wonder just how many thousands of dollars these great minds of academia shot up a pig's ass to discover this pearl of knowledge???? Let's see;a kid with nothing; all of the sudden has more money,alcohol,drugs & sex than he ever thought existed....What do you think he's going to do????Join a monastery???? Why Hell No....It's time for Sex,Drugs,& Rock& Roll! They could have given me the money for the study and I could have told them what we all already knew. Of course the ones who don't "burn out" during the first 5 year's of their success,may grow smart enough to learn about the values of moderation. I figure this "Amy Winehouse" chick is next in line to "pop her last balloon". When the "Queen of Junkie Sluts",Courtney Love says you're doing too much dope....then your probably gonna die. Then there are the total exceptions to the rule. The one's who after a nuclear holocaust,will still be here hanging out with the cockroaches : Keith Richards,Lou Reed,&George "Possum" Jones come to mind. They cannot be killed by ordinary means. Let's face it,with fame & celebrity,comes all the pitfalls of an early demise & we don't need a university study to teach us that. It's right in front of us on the news every day....
Peace,
