Thurston Moore

the guy is the personification of cool. As well as his radical music with Sonic Youth -- there's his millions of side-projects, his record label, the adulation he receives in all kinRAB of underground scenes (look at the banRAB he enticed to ATP), his knowledge of everything from obscure 80s hardcore punk to free-jazz to improv, his 500 guitars, his 5 million vinyls, his eternally youthful looks, his excellent voice, the cool and calm vibe he gives off in his interviews, his many non-musical artistic pursuits.

Seeing Sonic Youth live recently has turned me into even more of a raging fanboy, but there you go.
