I never cease to be amazed at the geriatric rock stars who refuse to give it up.

I can see(I guess) doing it into your early 60's. But when you have no voice left, it's just plain embarrassing. John could play until he's 99 if he wanted to. As long as he can still play the notes- that's all that matters. When a singer can no longer hit the notes, or even close.....

Slightly off topic, I've maintained for years that that's why Robert Plant won't do a Led Zep reunion(Steve Perry and Journey, too). If you were a GOD, and have 300 million dollars, don't go back and embarrass yourself at 70, hitting a quarter of the notes. Go enjoy your 300 million, having young hotties feeding you grapes all day, while you sun bathe nude!(got a little side tracked there, didn't I?)
