THE STROKES drummer FABRIZIO MORETTI hopes he'll know when it's time to quit the music business, and dubbed THE ROLLING STONES "sad" for carrying on into their sixties.

The LAST NITE hitmaker, who is dating Hollywood actress DREW BARRYMORE, insists he will retire from the band when they have nothing new to offer.

He says, "If we could still be a band that is honest to itself and able to reflect its current status, then we will (make music and go on tour until we get old).

"But if we hold on to something that we were in the past, than we won't. I don't want to end up like The Rolling Stones. They are old men trying to be young guys. That's sad."

A: He's famous for dating Drew Barrymore
B: When he's had as many hits as the Stones, MAYBE then he can comment.
C: F You Fabrizio...

He is a loser, and good thing he wont be around in his 30's

Puhhhleeeeaze. He's the invisible drummer for some little shit band that imitates (poorly) classic-rock style. It's not even about hits, it's the fact that he isn't worthy to make a bad comment about the FORKING ROLLING STONES. F you Fabrizio is right.

I love what a loudmouth he is. First the having sex in the opera house, and now this. BLAB BLAB BLAB.

Love it! As for the Stones, does it matter who shits on the Stones? You can't get rid of the Stones.

why doesn't he marry Drew? You always see pictures of her crying in the trash rags, cause he's not ready - reading this he really seems an ass

No clue who he is and don't care.

Erm, your new stuff sounds just like from your first album and your first album sounds just like stuff that people did much better long ago.

I think the Stones music has been crap since the mid 80's, although I like everything they did before then.

even though I never really liked the Stones, you have to give credit where credit is due. People LOVE them...and they've been relevant and with it for decades...unlike The Strokes, who I SWEAR, have a deal with the devil, because they are on the covers of two mags, one being the New Yorker (or is it New York)with the headline "Is This THE END of The Strokes?!" calling them the new yorkiest band out there...what the hell does that mean?!

how about a good rock band, not just pretty boys dating celebs...

Both sides might be right. The fact that what's-his-name might be an insignificant little troll doesn't change the fact that the Stones should have packed it in around 1990, right after Steel Wheels.
