Re: (TV) John Byrne dead at 61

Very sad. I always liked that song and Television's version of it was a high
point of the two times I've managed to see them.

This guy, John Byrne, only lived to be 61.
Why is it though, that musicians seem to have shorter life spans? They live
shorter than presidents for example - who quite often do not expire until
their 90s. Am I falsely falling for for a red herring, or am I on to
something? Can someone devise a list of well known musicians who have made
it beyond 80? Any musical genre will do.
