10 Most Rock N' Roll Things That Have Ever Happened

What do people do when their money to sense ratio is tipped 50 to 1? Amazing and incredibly stupid things, that's what.

Rock n' roll is dead. While rock music may be as popular as ever, the spirit of rock that was instilled back in the 50s and 60s is well and truly gone forever. It used to be the playground for the bad boys, for those who had an axe to grind and a desire to misbehave in truly epic fashion, yet modern rock bands are too sensible, too socially conscious and because of the rise of social media, too concerned about their image. Nowadays it's far too easy for indiscretions to wind up becoming the next viral video or trending topic, so musicians seem to be behaving themselves. Gone are the days when huge musicians would, in the words of KISS, "Rock n' roll all night and party every day" with little or no regard for their own personal wellbeing or the safety of others - it seems all that's left is the fond memories of the wild parties and antics those at the top of their field were capable of. Ahead of you are ten of the most rock n' roll moments ever, and we're not talking some miscreants trashing the odd hotel room or throwing a TV into a pool from 20 stories up. No, these are the hardcore, the bad boys and girls of rock laying themselves at the mercy of their own excess and creating some truly astounding examples of what people can do when they have more money, power and fame than anyone knows what to do with. This is a celebration of the survivors of the golden age of bad behaviour. For those who are about to rock, we salute you...
