Suburban Warrior

The Rolling Stones performed in our town recently. Now, I enjoy the Stones' MUSIC, but as for the geriatrics that make up the band...uh, not so much.

First off, Mick Jagger. Mick Jagger...sexy? He's vile...his sixty year old body slithering around in spandex?!! His face looks like an old raisin to me. Could someone explain what is attractive about this man? If you find Mick cute, did you also have a thing for Hume Cronyn? And his age has nothing to do with it...he was just as repulsive when he was in his twenties. Granted, I'll give him credit for being able to move like that at his age. I mean, he's basically the same age as my mother...and she recently gave up taking baths because "it's just too hard getting in and out of the bathtub...".

Keith Richards. He kills me. He looks like he's been run over by a bus at least ten times. And have you ever really looked at his hands (photo above)?!? How this man can boil water nevertheless strum a guitar with those fingers is beyond me. My ninety year old grandmother's hands looked better than that...and she was forced to move into an assisted living facility because she couldn't open doors anymore.

The other two band members? Whatever...(Although the guy on the left reminds me of someone's creepy uncle...someone I would be sure to keep at a distance from my children).

But the Stones keep on makin music and entertaining us. AARP should be proud!
