hmmm, interesting thread.

so many rock n rollers or musicians have led such depraved lives, and so many died young wasting their talents sucking down wild turkey or shooting up heroin.

I have thought about this a LOT. If I could trade my life for any musician ever, I would trade with

RINGO STARR

He was hoping to work in a haberdashery, and instead joined up with the beatles in hamburg germany, proceeded to record some of the most influential rock music ever, was lucky enough to be friends with John Lennon, George Harrison, and Paul McCarteny when he did not suck ass, has been happily married for a long time, has met and befriended all the great music idols of the last 50 years, has played with many great people, has lived long enough to outlive John and George (sadly) and actually passed up Paul mcCartney as the COOLEST LIVING BEATLE
and still has a great sense of humor, the exact same sense of humor he had when he joined the beatles and booted out pete best.
He will probably outlive Paul mccartney, even though he was the elder beatle.
he has never been involved in any ridiculously stupid drugs or sex scandal that I know of.

It would rule all to be Ringo Starkey
