It's odd though. Ronnie Wood and Keith Richards have plenty of health scares but continue to live on and on. Charlie Watts lives a peaceful, clean living and goes before them. If you'd have asked who'd have gone first I doubt many would've put him on top of the list.
There's plenty of big musicians who've died but now that a Rolling Stone has passed I think it's the start of the end of an era.

I thought the exact same thing about Charlie being the least likely of the current line-up to go first.
Obviously such a thing was/is imminent for them (and any band that’s been around forever) but it’s weird now that it’s starting to happen. It’s too soon right now to ponder on what will happen going forward but in all honesty, I think it would take losing either Mick or Keith to end the Stones run. I don’t mean that in an insensitive way at all of course. That’s just my prediction.
