British born rock and pop legend, Rod Stewart said he is going to live the remaining days of his life to the fullest and he is not afraid of dying.
The hit maker who will hit 80 in January 2025 has been sharing his musical talents with the world for more than 60 years. Stewart said he has no plans of slowing down when it comes to life after showbiz.
“I’m aware my days are numbered but I’ve got no fear,” he told The Sun.
“We have all got to pass on at some point, so we are all in the same basket. “I am going to be enjoying myself for these last few years as much as I can. “I say few — probably another 15. I can do that easy mate, easy.”
These days Stewart still “goes mad” and enjoys a few drinks after each two-hour set with his show colleagues, though he admits he can’t get as wild as he did in his younger days.
“I’m not like I was in the ’70s and ’80s and I can’t stay up all night, get drunk and go mad and still have a voice just like that. Nowadays I have to protect my voice before and after every show,” the “Forever Young” singer said.
Steward credits good old H2O for helping with that, but that’s not all he drinks.
“The older you get, the more you have to do that. Water has a hell of a lot to do with it. But no, you think I just have water on my rider? You’re talking to Rod Stewart here, mate,” he said.
“We go mad after every show,” he added, noting that the group’s current drink of choice is a classic cocktail.
“After a show we all get stuck into the martinis. Most bands all go home and go to bed but we don’t. We have a big old party,” he said.
