"Hope I die before I get old"?

Do you play in a band? Pray that you never hit it big. The chances of you dying young is a lot bigger if you get famous. I don't think this issue of Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health is published yet, but you better dip into this piece of science when it's out: “Elvis to Eminem: quantifying the price of fame through early mortality of European and North American rock and pop stars”. Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health, 2007;61:896–901.
