Keith Richards has acknowledged consuming a raft of illegal substances in his time, but this may top them all. In comments published Tuesday, the 63-year-old Rolling Stones guitarist said he had snorted his father's ashes mixed with cocaine. "The strangest thing I've tried to snort? My father. I snorted my father," Richards was quoted as saying by British music magazine NME. "He was cremated and I couldn't resist grinding him up with a little bit of blow. My dad wouldn't have cared," he said. "... It went down pretty well, and I'm still alive." Richards' father, Bert, died in 2002, at 84. Richards, one of rock's legendary wild men, told the magazine that his survival was the result of luck, and advised young musicians against trying to emulate him. "I did it because that was the way I did it. Now people think it's a way of life," he was quoted as saying. "I've no pretensions about immortality," he added. "I'm the same as everyone ... just kind of lucky. "I was No. 1 on the 'who's likely to die' list for 10 years. I mean, I was really disappointed when I fell off the list," Richards said. |

OH MY GOD.... I'm shocked but I also laughed at that quote. He's one crazy fucker to be quite honest. :D |

So, basically what he's saying is that I should snort a little bit of my Grandpa and I'll be immortal? Sweet deal! Eat it, Kurgan! |

I read about this.... You know, I've always wondered how it is he's managed to live this long when he's done all this stupid, crazy shit. This tops it all. That's all I can say really |

They have a thing now where you can have jewelry made from your deceased's ashes. Something about carbon something or other. I think that's a better idea but to each his own. |
iGSM 03.04.2007 20:40 |
Luck, I guess. Now I think about it I wouldn't mind eating my mother's corpse with some some Bernaise sauce when the time comes along. |

The guy's 63 yet he's managed to shimmy up a palm tree and fall out. I Don't think a bit of his dad'll kill him. |

Janet wrote: linksuuuuuuuuuuuuure........ NME claims it was no off the cuff remark. However as NME's Mark Beaumont who conducted the interview explained, the comment was no quip, but came about about after much thinking on the guitarist's behalf. "He didn't offer the information, I had to ask him a couple of questions to get the information out of him," said the writer. "He didn't come straight out with that." link |

On a related note, regarding the coconut thing: Keith was probably under the impression that he was getting a coke-o-nut, was shocked by the discovery that it was actually a harmless bit of fruit, and smashed his skull in disgust. |

To be honest, I was a bit sceptical after I read that the instance had happened sometime around 2002... I thought he was supposed to have quit all drugs in the 90's, and stick to just booze! |

he's not as hardcore as i thought he was[sigh] |
