I assume, therefore, that Jagger was complimenting Romney? Why am I confused about this posting.
Is the theme that Jagger was saying something nice about him or not?
at least Romney can support himself and his family in good fashion
When I heard I’d missed Jagger on SNL I didn’t think twice, but JEFF BECK was on too? Man, I hate to have missed that. Beck is to a guitar what DaVinci was to a canvass and oils.
yes - my point is that he was actually complimenting romney. it is political satire in a blues song but it is hardly anti-romney as reported in the media outlets. A mensch is yiddish and the highest compliment you can give a man.
I watched the beginning of SNL but was so depressed to see Mick Jagger looking so old that I fell asleep. I think Mick is turning 70 next year but I’m old enough where I can’t stay awake after midnight anymore.
Mick always looked worse than his age. And I find it hard to find any pity for him. He’s such a low-life. And I was a fan, back in the day.
But he did show up at some WH event not that long ago.
Thanks bagadonutz.
Definitely — there are virtuoso guitarists (Steve Vai for example), but Jeff Beck is the top.
Apparently the SNL writers asked Skinny Mick to come up with something biting - one thing I’ll say to his credit he always kept his nose out of American politics. Unlike, say, Paul McCartney.
He has finally become an “Old” blues man.
Jeff Beck was great. I haven’t heard him in years but he hasn’t lost a step.
Me too! But it's good to see that Tal Wilkenfeld is playing in his band again. She was off doing other things for a while, but her groove with Vinnie C on the drums is just SO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!

Here is the Beck/Jagger video plus Foo/Jagger doing "19th Nervous Breakdown" plus a version of "Last Time"
I'd like to see ol Mick doing his down and dirty song "Memo From Turner" but I don't think it has ever been done live...only on record
Of course they are. They are now the Soviet American Press Surrealists (S.A.P.S. is the acronym).
Should Obama lose in November, I expect them, in unison, to congratulate Obama on his victory, speculate on the Obama second term agenda, and call Mitt Romney a sore loser who just happened to get a few more votes than the winner, Obama.
They the THAT bad, these days.
I don’t think “always says his prayers ...but don’t ever let him cut your hair” was exactly a compliment.
Could have been worse, of course.
Jeff Beck, in my top five still alive, along with:
Joe Satriani, Eric Johnson and Eric Clapnor (sic).
Definitely there are virtuoso guitarists (Steve Vai for example), but Jeff Beck is the top.
