As an old fan,I would probably be wearing rose colored glasses too if I were to see a Moody Blues concert today.

You can’t go home again.

I saw “Yes” in concert twice in the seventies and once in the eighties and it was “far out!” then “cool” and finally “not bad.”

Rock Legends should at least retire at “cool” because “not bad” means they are great musicians but like any night club band, have no new good material and just go through the motions playing golden oldies.

The Stones try to do a new song at least once every half decade and the songs usually suck but they claim because of it they are still rock relevant even if it’s a sad joke.

Mick and Kieth should be doing Sinatra covers.

From what I hear, and I have no first-hand knowledge of this having never seen them, the Rolling Stones are still pretty good. But as for their studio material, they've pretty much been phoning it in ever since they put out It's Only Rock and Roll.
