Do you love your dad?

LONDON - Keith Richards has acknowledged consuming a raft of illegal substances in his time, but this may top them all.

In comments published Tuesday, the 63-year-old Rolling Stones guitarist said he had snorted his father’s ashes mixed with cocaine.

“The strangest thing I’ve tried to snort? My father. I snorted my father,” Richards was quoted as saying by British music magazine NME.

“He was cremated, and I couldn’t resist grinding him up with a little bit of blow. My dad wouldn’t have cared,” he said, adding that “it went down pretty well, and I’m still alive.”

Richards’ father, Bert, died in 2002, at 84.

Richards, one of rock’s legendary wild men, told the magazine that his survival was the result of luck, and advised young musicians against trying to emulate him.

“I did it because that was the way I did it. Now people think it’s a way of life,” he was quoted as saying.

“I’ve no pretensions about immortality,” he added. “I’m the same as everyone ... just kind of lucky.

“I was No. 1 on the ‘who’s likely to die’ list for 10 years. I mean, I was really disappointed when I fell off the list,” Richards said.

... OK.

Meh, some people snort with their father, others just don't care for the superfluous conversation.

JediKooter · 04-03-2007, 05:07 PM

At least he waited until his dad was dead before trying to snort him.

BrianD · 04-03-2007, 05:09 PM

So how many people are in line to snort/smoke Keith's ashes when he dies. With all the drugs he's done, people should get a pretty interesting high from him.

If they cremate him, they should just make a giant bong for the occasion.

"Keith Richards intimated in an interview that kids should not do drugs. Keith Richards?! Keith, we can't do any more drugs, because you already f*ing did 'em all! We have to wait until you die and smoke your ashes!"

Denis Leary was close on this one.

Claiming that your statement that you snorted your father's ashes was a joke is decidedly NOT rock n' roll.

Yes, I do love my father. But there are some things with which I draw the line.
