A lot of these guys are starting to go now, I think the incredibly hard lives they have lived are starting to catch up with them. Endless touring, boozing, narcotics of many different descriptions, smoking, etc can't do the body any good in the long run.

Having said that, Keith Richards and David Crosby seem to continue to defy nature!


Very sad though losing Mitch Mitchell, thats the whole JHE gone now.
