December 18, 2008 is the 65th celebration of St. Keith's Day. Born December 18, 1943 in Dartmouth, Kent, where he later met Mick Jagger at primary school, our hero received real exposure to good music and hard knocks!!!
In his 65 years on this blue marble, Keith has changed the way we rock n' roll forever! Here are some photos of, and quotes from, the man. Feel free to email your own additions!

St. Keith Quotes:
Dan Longer submitted this photo of Keith as the living dead. I had been looking all over for it, and am happy to share it with you all on this very special this St. Keith's Day!!!
Here's another "Hard to believe he is still alive" shot of St. Keith that I got from Bubba John!
“You've got the sun, you've got the moon, and you've got the Rolling Stones”
“I've never had a problem with drugs. I've had problems with the police.”
“It's great to be here. It's great to be anywhere.”
