Let's make this birthday one to remember.

65 years old (Born on November 21, 1960)

Happy Birthday, Brian Ritchie! May your day be filled with more excitement than the opening riff of "Blister in the Sun" and fewer awkward moments than explaining what exactly that song is about. Your bass lines have kept us dancing (and occasionally embarrassing ourselves) for decades—proof that great music never goes out of style.

From rocking stages worldwide to inspiring countless air-bass solos at parties, you've truly made a lasting mark on alternative rock history. Here's hoping this year brings you as much joy and success as your iconic hits brought to our playlists. Kiss off another fantastic year ahead!
