A new infographic illustrates the top-selling musicians in America by state of birth, with a number of familiar classic rock greats among those featured.
Any rock fan worth his or her salt is aware of the "live fast, die young" mythology surrounding the music -- and lord knows we've all seen more than enough musicians succumb to the stereotype. But a new study suggests the phenomenon might be far more widespread than previously believed.
Now this didn’t happen to me…so don’t visualize me when I tell you this story. A young musician. Songwriter. Performing his heart out. And a pretty girl comes up to him after the show. They talk.
