Rock On! Maybe Not . . .

Illustration of the Week from PreachingToday.com The High Cost of Hard Living

Researcher Mark Bellis of Liverpool John Moores University in Liverpool, England, collected statistics concerning 1,064 rock stars from the United States and Europe between the 1950s and the present. His conclusions suggest that, statistically, rock stars really do die younger than the general population. The average age at death for American rockers was 42; for Europeans, 35.

Partying, transportation accidents, and mental instability were the primary contributors to causes of death.
