If a rolling stone gathers no moss, than these 2 are not stones... nor rolling. They have perpetuated a rock and roll mythos for decades. Yes they may have done something interesting back before I was born, but what have they done lately? Gathered moss. Props for doing whatever it was that made so many people like them, but really... do something relevant to me and I'll be impressed.
(Did that sound too negative? It probly was. I'm wrong, they totally should continue riding limousines and snorting cocaine off of hookers' asses, it's what they tried for and deserve. I'm just a lowly music enthusiast, what do I know?)

I eats fermented cabbage and likes it too.
Also, I happen to agree with you that these stones have been gathering moss for the past, oh, 20 years or so. Which is why they have to kick any set off with something from before we were born to even hold a crowd's interest.
Only recently have I even paid more than glancing attention to these guys, and what brings me back to it is the filthy, dirty blues they played in the early days.
As I mentioned in a reply to someone else, it wasn't the fact that it was The Stones that pulled me in, it was the fact that they were pimping their mythos across the road from me for nothing.
Free whores are still whores, but at least you don't feel robbed.

In "Brown Sugar" he changed all instances of "black girl" to "young boy."

What's coolest was that I got something very expensive (even priceless) for free.
What's coolest is that sometimes this city repays me for all of the hard work it takes to get by here.
