Leading up to Stadium Arcadium, RHCP was pretty wild for the sake of adding a more recent group to the discussion.

ZZ Top is still cool.

Also, the fact that Keith Richards looks the way he does and Mick having sex with Bowie and they are still in discussion should put them at numero uno.

New Order is definitely cooler than VU. Joy Division is possibly cooler.

Killing yourself = not cool

Although the album he was listening to when he killed himself was Iggy Pop's The Idiot

Which is a super fricking cool album

Because Levon was so fricking cool, it doesn't matter how much of a douche Robbie Roberson turned out to be.


I came here to say that Dylan is the coolest person ever. And The Band behind him with Levon and danko and Robertson?! Yeah!

Dylan, simply put, is King.
