Famously drug-addled Rolling Stone Keith Richards (seen here in April) turns 65 this week, but he remains tightlipped about any wild party plans he might have to celebrate becoming a pensioner. The legendary guitarist, songwriter and archetypal wild rocker will reach the landmark age only a few months after Stones frontman Mick Jagger, who turned 65 in July. (AFP/File/Max Nash)
Time is on my side , Yes, It is.

Just remember to fall out of a palm tree and land on your head when you’re 60 or so and you’ll do fine too. ;-)

I once spent an evening hanging out and talking with Keith Richards. He was disheveled and drunk, but was also witty, generous, pleasant and insightful. We talked about being the emotional difficulties of being a dad and dealing with his own dad, who was in failing health. All in all, I thought he was a pretty deceit guy, cursed with a life-long substance dependency problem.

Nice caption.

At 65 he looks the same as when he was 35 (when he also looked 65)....
....Except for the gray hair..... and his teeth falling out?

i’ve thought for a decade that the stones will be making music and videos and performing live
while in wheelchairs.

I actually never thought he’d make 65. He may outlive all of us.

I actually never thought hed make 65. He may outlive all of us. I kinda think the same of Ozzy Osbourne, who just turned 60 earlier this month (though I am fully convinced if it wasn't for Sharon, he would have been dead a LONG time ago)
