Who is the greatest Rock "Star"?


What is a Rock "Star"? A Rock "Star" by my opinion is a legendary rock star that when walks into a room every head turns. There is a vibe that you feel when they enter the room. They have to have had several hits with their band. They pretty much don't give a F@#$ what anyone thinks of them. Say anything that comes to mind no matter the outcome.They obviously had to have been a drug addict at some point right? I can think of about 5 or so and one comes to my mind that tops the list. Stephen Tyler. He's got the look. He's got the voice. He's got the hits. He's got the fans. He's got his own Guitar Hero game that feature's his exclusively his band. He's also been a drug addict. He would be recognized on the street by anyone. Plus a 25 year old girl at my work think's he's just the bomb (even in his 60s). The other 4 that come to mind. Bono, Mick Jagger, Jim Morrison and Nikki Sixx. I know Nikki was from the hair metal era which gets little deserved respect. But after reading his Herion Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Rock Star, I have more respect for him.

its definitely a presence. when they turn up somewhere, for a split second - all air leaves the room. heads turn, nods are given... the physical language of the environment changes.
