    Rest in peace you absolute legend.

    Given the life he lived I’m amazed he lasted as long as he did.

      Lemmy Killmeister made it to 70! How the hell did that happen?

      Not to mention Keith Richards is still alive and playing music at 79.

      Also, Willie Nelson is 90 and Tommy Chong is 85, which suggests that some “dangerous” drugs aren’t as dangerous as they’re made out to be.

      And then there’s Snoop. Snoop will never die. I will hear no arguments against this objective fact.
