wracking my brain to trying to think if I know a single adult who has successfully quit smoking (though I know many who have tried and failed, including my father)my mother quit in the 1980s so that cancels out your entire sample

it is possible that some of my friends will return to smoking prior to death, but like sic's mom, my grandmother quit in the 1980s and is dead now, having never taken smoking back up

(my dad transitioned from pack-a-day of cigs to half a cigar or two a day, but died in ‘94. half a dozen + of my high school friends started smoking in the ‘90s and quit or dropped to a drunk fag a few times a year by their early ‘30s.)

Though not a rock star, Eric Wagner who was in doom metal gods Trouble and now is in doom metal supergroup The Skull is a huge smoker who still chains on stage.

idk if he is a rocker but a recently saw a promotional photo of Richard Pinhas with a cig hanging out of his mouth. smoking is one thing but being photographed for promotional purposes while smoking is a whole other level.

I smoked for 14 years and have quit for 16. I just had a strange experience looking at the old ad posted above - looking at the woman smoking at the end I suddenly thought you're doing WHAT? WHY would you do that? - smoking itself looks so weird to me now.
