The glitzy 3-D cover that graces its 1,000th edition - a pastiche of the Beatles' Sgt Pepper album sleeve - celebrates the great and the good from the last 40 years of pop music and culture.

And with a $1m (£540,825) price tag, it may be the most expensive magazine cover in history.

What a waste.

1,000. Good. Please stop now.

Looks like Bono made his way to the very front.

Just in front of Madonna fucking herself. Pretty much says it all about where Rolling Stone is at these days: A jerkoff in love with himself and a desperate slut fucking herself.

If only Rolling Stone were any good at all...

WORST MUSIC MAGAZINE EVER.

People still read "Rolling Stone"? And really, "Sgt. Pepper"? Please.

summarizing the last 40 years of music with a cover based on a 39 year old album shows how hip with the kids they are

Jann Wenner was 'Person Of The Week' (a little feature they do on Fridays on the ABC national news TV broadcast). It said RS circulation is the highest it's ever been. That surprised me (if it's even true). Maybe because for subscriptions it's one of the cheapest mags out there along with Spin and ESPN The Magazine.

You can get Rolling Stone in practically every newsagent in the UK. So it obviously does sell shitloads.

I'll be celebrating with a three-day heroin 'n hookerz binge.

thanks for the memories RS!
