Let's make this birthday one to remember.

79 years old (Born on September 23, 1945)

Happy birthday, Steve Conte! Whether shredding unforgettable riffs with The New York Dolls or mesmerizing us alongside your brother in The Contes, you've always struck the perfect chord. Your guitars might be vintage, but your energy somehow stays younger than punk rock itself.

Celebrating another trip around the sun—and you're still cooler than any guitar lick we could ever dream up. Rumor has it you don't age; you just level-up your awesomeness each year. Here's to more iconic solos, sold-out shows and epic adventures ahead—because legends like you never go out of style (unlike those tight leather pants). Keep on rocking!
