Everyone seems to be at the mosque instead of the concert halls in Britain

I think the last Stones album I picked up was "Through the Past, Darkly."

I don't really care one way or the other, but it has always surprised me that they still draw crowds. Some of these shows with ancient geezers seem a little creepy, especially the rock ones. Jazz and blues singers, OTOH, just seem to get better with age.

President Kennedy said they were a flash in the pan, guess he was right.

the band who have a combined age of 249

New math. And what's the combined age of, say, the team of current Dallas Cheerleaders, huh?!

Shhhhhh.... it's a secret! But I've yet to see or hear a live Stones concert that looked exciting, or where the music didn't sound "mechanical" and rushed!

The Superbowl halftime fiasco in Detroit last year, with its mediocre-at-best performance, didn't exactly shake my opinion.

I dunno, maybe it's like the Dead concerts, where it's more of an event than a concert?

So that "Sweet NeoCon" song didn't win them thousands of new fans?

Maybe the Stones and the Dixie sluts ought to just hang it up.

Going to a RS concert, I suspect, is much more about saying you went to a RS concert. How cool is that? I've never been among their most ardent fans, but I went to one about 25-30 years ago; at the Oakland (CA) Coliseum, IIRC. Geez, the sound absolutely sucked and the band was not especially together. I acknowledge that sound reinforcement art has advanced massively since then. But what a story I can tell!

But perhaps most embarrassing of all for the band who have a combined age of 249 is that cut-price tickets are also being sold to pensioners through the company Saga.

Key demographic.... they should have quit in 1981, or in 1991, or in 2001.

Well maybe we will finally find out how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall.

Oops, wrong geezers.
