I know the title is very grim, but yes. Eventually the members of the greatest band in history will die (except Keith). But that's not what I mean, will the ROLLING STONES ever die? They say you dont really die until your name is spoken for the very last time. So what I'm wondering is, will they ever be forgotten? Will they be taught in school like Bach or Beethoven? They've been dead for 200+ years and everyone knows who they are! As long as I live, they will not die. If they will, when? 50 years? 100 years? 500? 1000???

Sorry if it's too harsh or too blunt. I guess just "fade" would work.
Do you have to use the word "die"?

I know schools where they're already being taught, as part of "History of popular music" classes and such.

I'd like to think they live long enough to celebrate their 60th anniversary with a farewell tour in 2022. It's only 2 years away, it's possible.
