Keith Richards immortal!
Posted on Aug 6 07

Rolling Stone legend, Keith Richards, has insisted that he will never stop drinking, and has claimed that he has outlived a number of doctors who have warned him against it.
The Brown Sugar guitarist, who was once addicted to heroin for 10 years, claims decades of hard-partying have taught him to know his limits.
He said: “They keep telling me to stop drinking, but I can’t be bothered.
“It’s like, ‘You don’t know me, I know me.’ The people who’ve told me to stop doing this and that and they’ve croaked.
“Not that I want to brag about it, but I mean, I’ve had about three doctors who told me, ‘If you carry on like this, you will be dead in six months.’ I went to their funerals.”
Last month, Richards made a joke remark that he would live to 150! His alcoholic, drug abusive lifestyle has seen him through till his later years, so why not live for even longer, he thinks to himself.

For all the myth-mongering that surrounds Keith, in all likelihood he will die a relatively young man. It's sad -- and avoidable. |

He's old already. And he's still on the road. At ths stage of the game, what more could you ask for? |

63 ain't old -- not by today's standards. I'm not asking for anything. But I think it'd be in Keith's interest - and his family's - to live as long as he possibly can. |

Patti and the kids shouldn't have too long a wait for the $$$$$$$$. But at this point, he isn't going to prolong his life by quitting anything. |

Keith has generally sucked since The Fiji Fall. The rare good nights just seem sore reminders of what once was.... |

You don't have to be rich to get drunk everyday. |

Remember that heavy metal doco from early 90's. "Decline of civilisation" or something. Had the bass player from W.A.S.P. fully clothed in the pool, drinking straight from a vodka bottle, with his poor old Mum watching nearby.
Wonder if he' s dead?
