After rocking all over the world since 1967, John Kaye of Steppenwolf swears that this summer's 40th Anniversary tour is the band's last. Here are some signs for some other aging rock stars that...
IT MIGHT BE TIME TO CALL IT QUITS.
If your idea of doing some drugs before the gig means dropping a couple hits of Prilosec…it might be time to call it quits.
If most of your fans leave before the encore to get home to watch TVLAND's Matlock-a-thon…it might be time to call it quits.
If instead of wanting to Rock and Roll All Night and Party Every Day, you'd just be happy with regular bowel movements…it might be time to call it quits.
If the bag you score from your dealer before the show is of the colostomy variety…it might be time to call it quits.
If your fans no longer get tattoos of your logo, but instead draw it on their arms by connecting their liver spots. …it might be time to call it quits.
If the sign that the crowd wants an encore isn’t thousands of fans flicking their Bics, but rather hundreds of fans flashing their lights on their mobility scooters…it might be time to call it quits.
If you still have shoulder length hair, but now it's coming out of your ears. …it might be time to call it quits.
If your female fans’ attempts to flash the band by pulling up their tops is foiled by the fact that their boobs are still tucked into their jeans. …it might be time to call it quits.
If your guitarist makes fewer high pitched, squealing sounds than your hear aid…it’s definitely time to call it quits.
