...Schwartzman got to be the president of the Debate Society and the founder of the Bee Keepers Club. In real life, he gets to play drums for the sunny post-grunge band Phantom Planet. The band’s new label, Epic, has dolled up the fivesome in worn denim and messy hair, plopped them on a sidewalk stoop and photographed them in black and white for an album cover worthy of The Strokes. And why not? If that band can make it big with throwbacks to punk’s heyday and a hype campaign to embarrass...
...album with an entirely different slant. Beginning with “Visions of Paradise,” Jagger undertakes the previously unimaginable task of coming to terms with the fact that he is possibly the only man alive over the age of 50 who is still allowed to wear denim jeans and a leather jacket, bed supermodels and sing about it in front of thousands of people.

At the behest of guitarist Mike Einziger's unicorn-obsessed girlfriend, a competition to draw the mythical creature was under way. Using a wooden food-service table as his canvas, lead singer Brandon Boyd has laid down a medieval unicorn with wings in thick...
...extending the original. "I feel just as good throwing a steer now as I did when I was 25, and believe me, the cattle are not any easier," says Dan Stringari, 54, a steer wrestler from Gallatin Gateway, Mont., who sports the unofficial rodeo uniform--denim shirt, Wranglers and boots. Some participants say the weekly activity keeps them fit. "It's either this or sit at home and die of old age, so I'm not quitting until I'm 6 ft. under," says barrel racer Linda Short, 52, from Dayton...
