This thread is for Heavy Metal frontmen over 60...

[mikeratan00]

No Clapton's or ,, only Heavy Metal Singers over 60 years of age and still in great shape and able to belt it out.....

 

[Josh O]

Lemmy (dude is almost 64)

Ozzy ((he may need a teleprompter but Ozzy still kicks it live)

Halford (he's close to 60, close enough for me, he still wails)

 

[Solomon]

Saw Halford, RJD & Lemmy last summer. All three kicked ass. I don't know if they are getting some help but they all sounded great.

anybody got a link to the beef between Ronny and Viv Campbell? What's the beef?

Over 60's heavy metallers have got to be the saddest people on the planet. Everybody grows old, be a man and face up to it.

 

[hudpucker]

The crack about Clapton must've stung a bit, eh?

 

[todd richman]

How about the father of "heavy metal" Robert "I just won a slew of Grammys" Plant.

What the hell are you talking about? They're out singing amazingly in front of huge crowds on a regular basis.

Another fedora and hawaiian shirt-wearing heavyweight weighs in.

I think Lemmy will still be doing it after we're all dead and gone. He's a force of nature.

Yes, still trying to be teenagers and pulling 18yr old girls young enough to be their grandchildren, yeuch.

better than growing a scraggly grey ponytail to hide the baldspot.

They're having fun. Their fans are having fun. They're still playing the music they want to, to good crowds. If they can still put a good show on, why shouldn't they keep playing. Rock and Roll is about maintaining a youthful perspective, and if they can still pull 18yrs olds, then more power to them.

Thread crapper, you are...




Go practice, you old fart.

Yeah, for that matter, anyone over 60 should immediatly stop living their dreams or pursuing them. It is time to give up on life and live your last 20 or 30 years or however long you have being a miserable, grumpy old man.

Lemmy rules. He's still playing louder, faster, and better than most of the people on here combined.

Black Sabbath released their first album in 1970. How old do you think their fans are?

And honestly, there is no age limit to good music.

Of course, if one is an old fart, devoid of any discernible musical talent, it does feel great being able to sit in front of a computer and talk **** about hugely talented and successful artists who've been releasing music since before The Beatles even got a record deal.

 

[Bankston]

If it makes you feel better, Halford is not trying to pull 18 yr old girls.

You say that like its a bad thing?
