“Rock Stars” all seem to live a life of excess, in every possible dimension. From humble beginnings, these musically gifted individuals evolve and mutate into creatures of utter fascination, living lives full of adventure, drug-use, misfortune, astronomical success, and so, so much more. Whether they were frontmen (or women) or band members hidden in the back – we’re looking at you drummers – these iconic rock stars have legacies that will no doubt stand the test of time.

However, have you ever wondered what these iconic rock stars would have looked like had they not left us so soon? Their future achievements will always be a mystery but with modern technology (and a few visual gimmicks), we’ve been able to time-lapse some of their last looks into modern (rather, older) interpretations. These iconic rock stars may not be around to help us compare, but we hope you can appreciate the possible looks of some of our favorite and iconic rock stars.
