"For the first time in years, the Rolling Stones are performing “Moonlight Mile” at arenas during their 15-city North American “Zip Code” concert tour."

Sorry, but I can't think of anything I'd less rather watch than a 71 year old man shaking his ass on stage and making kissy lips to the girls in the front row. I watched some video of their last tour and that's what he was doing and it was pretty repulsive. But, if people will still pay you big bucks to do it then I can certainly understand why they do. I just won't be watching it.

If you still can at 71, go for it. Would you rather he just sat on a bench in St. Petersburg, FL feeding the pigeons waiting to die. For many, Mick is erasing the image of the Grim Reaper just waiting around the corner.

I have to agree! And that's coming from someone who thinks the Rolling Stones really WERE the 'greatest rock n roll band in the world'...AND who thinks 'Moonlight Mile' is one of their best songs. But enough's enough already! Several years ago I was working security at the Pepsi Center in Denver and the Stones came there for a Thanksgiving concert...they acted like such stuck-up pricks with their huge 'entourage', and their sell-out partnering with Harley-Davidson catalogue of every kind of chintzy merchandise, I knew then, if I hadn't realized before, they were sell-outs of the first order. To think, all the railing they did against 'the man' back in the day, only to become 'the man' themselves! Enough to make you sick.

What's funny is that I last saw them during the 1981 "Tattoo You" tour and at the time, they were considered rock dinosaurs. We commented back then on how ridiculous the then nearly 40-year-old Jagger looked trying to pull off his preening and strutting moves on stage.

Over 30 years later and he's still doing it. Well he has my respect and admiration. But I"m not paying to see it anymore!
