Which rock chick declined the most?

[gblowfish]

a) Ann Wilson of Heart
b) Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac
c) Linda Ronstadt

Which was more tragic? Who was hottest in their prime?

Any other nominations?

Her playing there was a big deal for the town (she was pretty big at the time with 'I Love Rock & Roll' just out); the mayor was there to shake her hand as she got off the tour bus. He reached out his hand, said 'Welcome to Clear Lake, Joan'; she simply stared at his hand for a few seconds, then just spit a lugie on the ground before walking into the ballroom. Classy.

If she's shaved it, I'd probably hit it

German chick. She’s that hairy everywhere else too.

She hasn't aged well, but she IS 73 freaking years old (same age as my mother) so I'll cut her some slack.

It's one thing if they completely blimp up like Ann Wilson but getting old happens to all of us (if we are lucky).

That's why I pointed that out. Grace didn't start looking "bad" until she got to be over 65.

Here's a picture of Grace at 49/50 from their 1989 reunion:

Yeah, I was agreeing with you.

It must be because I'm getting older too but a lot of the ladies posted here actually don't look too bad now, all things considered. Linda Ronstadt is probably the most egregious.

I figured as much, but was saying that for the benefit of those who'd probably disagree with us. Like you, I don't think most of the women posted here look that bad either. I wouldn't have said that 10 years ago. Age is going to get us all someday.

I remember when I started noticing the moms as well as their 20-something daughters. I suppose it won't be too long and start noticing the grandmas.

Actually, I know of a couple of VERY hot grandmothers. Of course, they're like 45 and a decade younger than me.

That's true. Lots of grammas out there younger than I am.
