Two case studies for aging rockstars: Siouxsie (b. 1957) and Debbie Harry (b. 1945).
Both "icons" have an album out in the fall. In both cases, hardly exciting music. One difference: one gets good advice about career choices and one doesn't.
I guess as a rule, when you're a rock'n'roller in your fifties or sixties, you should stick to your act. Nobody will crucify you for repeating yourself. We know you're old.
As a result, one manages to make you nod and think "yeah, she still got it" and one makes you sad.
You guess which is which.
