Since we're talking rock...
Keith Richards, the Rolling Stones' legendary guitarist, said today that "the strangest thing he's ever tried to snort" is his dead father.*
His father Bert died and was cremated in 2002. Richards, 63, says he "couldn't resist" mixing his ashes with a little Columbian bambam and snorting a few rails of "Dad." Richards says the powdery concoction went down easy.
You know what? (Kids, listen up...) To all you wannabe rock stars out there that think you know something, you don't know shite. (Yeah, I'm talking to you Snow Patrol, The Fray, Maroon 5, and Daughtry.) You're so not hardcore unless you can snort a dead family member up your nose.
Richard's quote was published in British music mag NME. All I can say is, "Rock and roll, Keith. Rock. And. Roll."
*Now Keith is saying this is a joke. I don't know about you, but I'm kinda bummed about that.
