Will there be a 60th anniversary?

They have gathered a lot of moss.

Is Charlie Watts actualy alive, or is Keith Richards just holding him up? :-)
Jimizo
The usual 'strolling bones' type jokes. What do you expect them to do? True legends - keep doing what you do.
Serrano
Sushi - Heck, is Keith actually alive or is Ron Wood just holding HIM up, ha ha!
I would pay good money to see the Stones perform even at this stage.

It's seemed to me that Charlie has ALWAYS had that "deer in the headlights" look in these publicity photos. He's always looked more comfortable sitting at his drum kit rather than standing out front with the rest of the guys.

They should re-open the Altamont Speedway and the Stones should open their concert tour there with Charlie's Angels providing security.

First, they were the World's Greatest Rock 'n' Roll Band. Then they were the World's Greatest Rock 'n' Roll Act. Then they were the World's Greatest Rock 'n' Roll Institution. Now they're the World's Greatest Rock 'n' Roll Corporation.
If I could freeze time, it would be when the Stones were on tour after releasing Exile on Main Street. If you've seen "Ladies and Gentlemen... The Rolling Stones!" you know why.

Rock and Roll is all about youth, youthful vigor and rebellion.
It takes a real artist to adapt that to aging. I'm thinking of a guy like BB King.
As much as I love the Stones, they should have stopped long ago.

Jagger is amazing!
Even at 68!
If you've ever seen him live, you'll know.
Check out Superheavy on YouTube.
Incredible music, with Joss Stone, Damien Marley and others.

BB King is incredible.
The Stones are incredible.
Very different. I don't know how you can compare them, brother JTDanMan.
And I agree with Shimagaicha, Superheavy is well worth a listen!
