Re: Rocking at 50: Rolling Stones to tour again

Clarification: the BAND is 50! The band members average over 100. :) Average age is actually about 69.

Shouldn’t this be their “Post Medicare” tour?

They are now as old as Perry Como was when he did his parodied “Still Alive” tour.

Here you go, aging hipsters! Give a bunch of drug addled geriatric perverts hundreds of your hard earned dollars and shake your flab and wrinkles to the coolest beat in the land.

Sheesh! Boomers self-indulgence never ends.

Never cared for them. Led Zeppelin, now that would get me out for an evening.

For those of you doubters, the "Zombie Apocalypse" is a very real possibility.

There is no reasonable explanation for most of these folks to still be moving around the planet.

The Cream reunion in 2006 was serious musicians and music. They didn’t need an army on stage to prop them up.

The Stones have toured for decades with an entourage that would fill a cruise ship. It ain’t Rock n Roll.

IMO Keef is the best rhythm guitar player in the world.
He is also one of the best songwriters the world has ever seen.
His voice sounds like goose farts on a foggy morning but I like when he sings better than when Mick does.
