He strikes an imposing image: clad in a suit-jacket, tall, with Elvis Costello glasses, the presence of the elder statesman of indie rock that he is. But the minute he stepped on stage, with the simple phrase “Welcome back,” he became the rock avatar of years past, shedding his suit coat for a conservative gray T-shirt with...

Now he is planning to write a book about heart-disease prevention--the book he really wanted to write in the first place. "The idea was not to fit into a bathing suit in a few weeks but to prevent heart disease," he says. "But people don't care when they die as long as they look good when they do." Finally a doctor has learned how to be patronizing in a useful way. --By Joel Stein
