A moment of lucidity from Freak Jagger.

Plain ole’ common sense from none other than Mick Jagger. Who’d ever have thunk that?

And now a word from Ringo Starr:

“I don’t talk politics. That way, everyone thinks I agree with them.”

Smart guy, that Ringo.

I once walked out of a Steve Earle concert when he launched into a diatribe about George Bush. Then I realized I forgot my scarf so had to sheepishly go back :(

No one expects normalcy from the sewer that is Joisey.

> “For two hours or whatever it is, to forget all their problems…” <

I never thought much about Mick Jagger, one way or another. His music is not my style of music.

But that quote is worthy of respect. I pay a plumber to fix a leak, not to hear his views on the world. Same kind of idea goes when I go to a concert.

Two thumbs up on this one, Mick.
👍

I have always been a fan of the Rolling Stones, since I had my first AM radio in the mid-sixties...Even the song Street Fightin Man asked the question, “what can a po boy do, ‘cept to sing in a rock n roll band?” Perhaps the most “political” song was Salt of the Earth on Beggar’s Banquet (1968)

Let’s drink to the hard working people
Let’s drink to the lowly of birth
Raise your glass to the good and the evil
Let’s drink to the salt of the earth

Wow, Mick shows some maturity, good judgment and common sense. And delivers a simple lesson in basic showmanship.

“The bottom line of my thing, really, is that my job in the live music world is [for] those people that come is to have the best time they possibly can. For two hours or whatever it is, to forget all their problems and the problems of the world and their mortgages and whatever, just to give them the best time they can have” — VERY NICE!! If only they all understood that in TV, cinema, music, theater.

Mick is fairly smart and savvy for a rock star. I’ve been impressed with his perspective and honesty in recent interviews. He knows he’s an entertainer and thats his job. A man’s got to know his limitations.

I agree, but the attendees have the choice not to buy tickets, so whatever.
