1. Where's the other one?

Is he dead already? :D

[Dr Fate]

4. Bill Wyman quit a few years back.

The dead one is Brian (1969)

[Dr Fate]

2. The Stones are doing what they have always done.

Worked hard, toured and tried to keep their fans happy.

They are a fun band to see- the crowds are 12 to 65 years old.

[undeterred]

8. Some in the band are now past 60 so it wouldn't surprise me if

there were a few folks older than that at their concerts!

[Magrittes Pipe]

3. Keef looks like my grandma!

:o

[Cooley Hurd]

5. I can't get no...

...solid poop.

Uh-hey-hey-HEY!

[Kikosexy2]

6. Give us...

Mick, Give us Mick!! Always enjoyed their concerts--damn old farts!

[JimmyJazz]

7. Old? They're turning into fossils!

[Book Lover]

9. Me, i never really *loved* the Stones, but

seeing a buncha "old men" rockin warms my heart.

[freethought]

10. Keith Richards will outlive us all!!

And that's everyone's age combined!!

[Rabrrrrrr]

11. It is kinda funny to realize they're a bunch of pensioners rockin' out!

[gizmo1979]

12. I saw their farewell concert at candlestick in 1981.

I think it was 81n maybe 80.

[progmom]

13. I've seen them live twice.

Say what you want - I'll probably agree with you. But they kick ass live.

[baldguy]

14. "I'd rather be dead than singing 'Satisfaction' when I'm forty-five."

[Dukkha]

15. Jagger is older than Bill Clinton

They need to seriously ask themselves do they have anything left to contribute musically this late in their career.

Rock and Roll will never die, but the Stones are on life support.

[Dr Fate]

16. Except for their shows rock and are fun as hell. n/t

n/t

[Dukkha]

17. I'm sure they are

I saw just one show, the Steel Wheels tour in 1989. It was very good.

Rick Wright of Pink Floyd once said "You don't want the world inhabited only by dinosaurs but it's good to keep a few of us around"
