Levine: 'I Don't Want To Be An Old Rocker'

By WENN, August 6 2008

MAROON 5 frontman ADAM LEVINE wants to quit music in 10 years' time - because he refuses to rock into old age like THE ROLLING STONES.

The Grammy-winning group hit the bigtime in 2002 with their debut LP Songs About Jane, and have enjoyed over 15 million album sales worldwide.

But singer Levine isn't sure a life of touring is for him.

The 29-year-old says, "I've spent my 20s on tour and there's no consistency in my life, which can take its toll.

"Eventually I want to focus on being a completely different person because I don't want to be doing this into my 40s and 50s and beyond, like the Rolling Stones."

But Levine admits he's not quite ready to quit the limelight, adding: "I don't want to give it up just yet, though - I think we have a little more to say."

Rolling Stones Sir Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood and Charlie Watts are all over the age of 60.
