>>At this point in time , who the heck would buy a new song by Mick Jagger ? Even a rabid Stones fan ( getting fewer with every passing day )probably isn’t interested . Why does he bother ? I wouldn’t if I were him .

Maybe it’s another dodgy tax avoidance scheme. Like perpetual touring to not remain in one country too long.
