There’s an old joke that only cockroaches and Keith Richards will survive a nuclear war.

But the 76-year-old rock and roller and his Rolling Stones’ band mates aren’t taking any chances with the global coronavirus pandemic.

Keith Mick and the rest of the cryogenically frozen stones have postponed their US tour … which had been scheduled to start in San Diego in May.

We saw them last summer at the Rose Bowl … unbelievably cool.

And speaking of rock’n roll institutions … Malibu’s Bob Dylan is still selling tickets for his June 18 concert date at the Hollywood bowl.

Seems like it’s a bit of a foot race between Bob Dylan and the Coronavirus … to see who blinks first.
