No, he's not dead. But damn, he looks old!
He's cut all his hair off, trying to look younger.
Do we all look that bad? |

Location: Vermont USA | I got to see Peter Frampton in concert this past Sept. His guitar playing and voice have not changed.
But he sure looks like the rest of us.

Location: cincinnati, ohio | Frampton lives in Indian Hill now, which is like this super-hoity suburb of Cincinnati where garages sell for about $800,000. A woman doctor who's a neighbor of Frampton's ran for Congress and stated that the median income in the U.S. was something like $600,000 a year! When a local radio host challenged her on-air about that, she said, "You'd better check your figures."
Of course she lost, which means there still are at least a FEW people who can think. A post-election analysis said she lost because she was "out of touch with the masses."
"Ya THINK?" :eek: |
