As Bono was in Africa giving relief to the poor and suffering in the form of lethal injections, we at EMN Headquarters were analysing the link (via our seats at a computer desk-top) between the rockstar lifestyle and the number 27- the age of which every musician worth noting kneels over and dies.

Hendrix and Cobain, for good example, both died at 27, although this wasn't much of a surprise in itself- as the two were left-handed they were doomed to die with short life-spans naturally (obviously!). The real mystery between the number was the uproar from fans, particularly conspiracy theorists- who have from the very off been suspicious that the left hands conspired against the musicians.

It was rumoured that Cobain's left hand shot the star in the brains, whilst conspiracy nuts on Hendrix's side believe his left-hand pilled the guitar god with alcohol before leaving him to puke in his sleep, subsequently leaving both musicians dead...at 27! Spooky, aye?! (writer of article clicks 'process' and resumes normal service of wanking over Google images of Amy Winehouse)..
