I can't believe it. The Stones are still touring.

I was driving through downtown Minneapolis and sure enough, there was a sign advertising a Rolling Stones show at the new Vikings stadium in May. I saw Steel Wheels at the old stadium in 1989 and I thought the Stones were old then! I remember thinking that Jagger still had some pretty good moves for an old guy. In 1989. And Keith Richards is apparently still alive, or maybe he's undead.
Amazing.

1. Trail blazers

As long as they can still rock the place I will still go.

3. I might go just for the contact high, like last time.

And to see if the audience looks like Lawrence Welk audiences used to look like.

18. I see a mixed bag

Kids, young adults, middle-aged folks, and oldies.

I can remember the Stones causing riots and being banned from Vancouver. People said they were of the devil.
Now they are considered rock and roll cultural icons and parents are taking kids to see them. I took my kids when they were 8, 10, and 13. They were mesmerized and I was so proud to let them experience real rock and roll artists. Their moves weren't choreographed, their voices weren't enhanced, and they proved they could still perform as they have in small venues by walking down the ramp onto a tiny stage and blasting out raw rock. The only drawback was that the guys sitting behind us kept spilling their beer on us. They played for more than two hours.

As long as they can still rock the joint, I am still in and so are my now slightly older kids. My son can play a mean guitar thanks to the inspiration he got at 8.

2. Sometimes I wonder if Keith Richard(s) is just acting

If he did half the things the stories say, he wouldn't be around now. It's a nice image to be a bad boy (now old man), but seriously, he's now something like Bernie Sanders' (or Joe B's) age? He's taking remarkably good care of himself for such a "vintage" rock n' roller.

I like the Stones, and I love the Beatles. What is common about both bands is that their members were/are incredibly intelligent folks, Keith included!

9. LMAO!

Good one! Nothing could survive in Keith!

Ok, here's a fave rave for a simple but wonderful guitar duo courtesy of Keith and Ronnie Wood:

19. You know, when you smoke a cigarette, God adds 10 seconds to Keith Richards life

4. How is this possible?

Didn’t Mick Jagger have heart surgery? And he’s so old (76)!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

7. And yet they live.

6. They did so many drugs and alcohol that the are well preserved

[brewens]

8. I thought I missed my last chance to see them about 1981 when I couldn't get tickets to the Seattle

show. I ended up seeing them on the Voodoo Lounge tour in the King Dome in '94. I figured that was really the last chance. Not even close. I'd consider going again. If they couldn't do it right, they would quit.

10. Marc Maron had a whole thing about this in his Netflix special--

he was very worried they would overdo it and fall, and wouldn't get up.

[zanana1]

16. That was a great special!

His tirade against Trump: "It's OK to hunt in zoos now". He didn't know how close to the truth he was.

11. 4th row seats in Dallas in May.

I have a feeling I won't be there due to the virus. We'll see.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

20. But Keith Richards will be.

13. My ex-brother-in-law has an $8 mil mansion...

...as their business manager, he has to maintain the place, doesn't he?

[Ahpook]

14. Love it

Here is hope they go another 20 years!

[dchill]

15. As someone once said, it's time to start thinking about...

...what kind of world we're leaving for Keith Richards.

[Mendocino]

17. I saw them in 78 & 81

Keith is like cockroaches and kudzu.
