RE: The "27 Club" - Truth or Myth
I believe it is a myth. These are people with heavy drug issues as well.
From Wiki: A study published in the British Medical Journal in December 2011 concluded that there was no increase in the risk of death for musicians at the age of 27. Although the sampled musicians faced an increased risk of death in their 20s and 30s, this was not limited to the age of 27.[3] A 2015 article in The Independent also provided statistical evidence that popular musicians are not more likely to die at the age of 27
Thank for the comment. Honestly speaking; I agree on it being a myth. Besides for the age 27 being common, another thing all these artist have in common is excessive drug and alcohol abuse. This subject always intrigued me very much as a rock music enthusiast and reading the different points of view regarding the 27 Club. I also read that Kurt Cobain's suicide was also referred to as a cold case due to new evidence that might proof his death to be a homicide; any views on this?
There has been rumours about that for a long time. I think we will never know if something else happened. Need some hard proof to ocour then.
