I still remember sitting on my parents bed (their TV had cable) watching MTV just relaxing, when Kurt Loder came on to announce Kurt Cobain died. It's one of those moments frozen in my mind.

Holy crap he was 49 the day he announced Kurt Cobain's death. I'd have never guessed and I watched that MTV Breaking News live.

Dude was already in his late 30's when I became aware of him & MTV.

Anyone else read this with the opening riff to *Peace Sells* by Megadeth playing in their head?

Wow. He's older than my parents, one of whom is so old he's dead. His interview on the Nerdist podcast is legendary. The definition of not giving a fuck. Honorary Gen Xer for life

Damn, every time I hear Keith Richard’s age, I think wow, my parents are 20 years younger. Am I old? Are they old! /s

The answer is always yes.
