Rock & Pop Stars: When should they Retire?
62
A rock or pop star should retire if and when:
- The number of wrinkles on their face exceeds the number of their hit titles
- Botox has made them look like a zombie maniken
- Any part of their body is sagging lower than their place on the charts
- Twenty-five-year-olds never heard of them
- Their CD release party is at Walmart
- All their sales occur from the 'bargain bin'
- Most of the members of their fan club are in assisted living
- They cannot remember the lyrics
- They cannot remember what song they are singing
- They cannot remember who they are
- Their great-grandchildren are their only fans
- Their grandchildren are ashamed to admit they're related
- The cover version of their greatest hit becomes more famous than the original
- Most of the people attending their concerts are using some type of mobility device
- They can only book a concert in a senior center
- They have to take oxygen between the verse and the bridge
- Every time they shake their booty, something falls off
- The fans offering them sex really start to scare them
- They must travel by ambulance when they go on tour
- A reporter takes a picture of them and the camera explodes
- No one is downloading their work, legally OR illegally
- They say they are going to release a new recording, but refer to an obsolete format such as vinyl, and everybody laughs
- They record a song for a Disney animated feature and people wonder who the hot new artist is

Funny, hub, Tom! Allow me to add:
They break a hip during sex with a groupie.
LOL If I may also add:
Paparazzis leave them alone.
LOL thought you'd like that one!
I related to they can't remember what song they are singing...and that is pretty bad...Hee Hee good job here was fun to read Thanks...G-Ma :o) Hugs & Peace
lol ...great answer Tom...thank you. I am glad to see people are having fun with it too. You're all too funny, lol.
Great ideas
Hi Tom. Funny, too funny but you're so right. Richards is a sight to not behold. But as in their youth they are leading the way for those who follow. Let's hope the followers take heed to your message.
I just can't picture a groupie screaming at Richards, "I want to have your baby!!"
It makes me wonder whether loyal fans still throw their knickers at Tom Jones. No, I don't need to think about that, especially not this close to lunch!
Neat hub Tom. You made me laugh!

But Tom, Keith Richards is so talented...oh wait, no he's not. Nevermind, you're right. I guess he can always do pirate movies the rest of his life. :)
