Man, what a halftime show! The Rolling Stones have still got their stuff!

They're rockin'est 60-somethings I've ever seen!

I know! I remember them when they first started out. They had it then and they still have it! Wish I did. :wink:

In 1966 a guy named Harlen Baker bet me a million dollars that the Rolling Stones would break up before the Beatles.


Anybody know where I can find that sumabitch????

I saw the Stones a few years back in a concert. Keith Richard
was utterly pathetic, and his voice isn't an ounce better than
a crow's hue.

I thought the Stones were great, loved seeing them, thought the stage set was terrific, and couldn't believe they were in their sixties. However, I kept expecting them to do something a little outrageous.

Start Me Up
?
Satisfaction

I didn't like their choice for the middle song, not even sure about
Start Me Up. What songs would you have chosen?

start me up's a sports arena anthem, so twas expecting it & they did fine on satisfaction, i thought. which leaves just one number, which plugged their latest album i'm guessing, but hard to pick one tune anyway. let's spend the night together might have been fun.

You hear what he said before they played I Can't Get No Satisfaction? Mick says, "We could've played this one in Superbowl I". Laughing
That made me laugh. Cool

That was funny. It's hard to imagine a group being around that long and still be going as strong as they are. Awesome.

That dude dances like a wounded duck.

Still amazing how long they've been doing it, and still do.

You are so right when it comes to Keith Richards' voice. Isn't the ten minutes at every Stones concert when they allow him to sing the designated time to go take a piss and smoke a joint?

It was when I saw them.

I have to disagree with the first post of this thread. They don't still have it. They haven't still had it since girdles were all the rage. Compared to a sedentary beast like my dad, who, at one year older than Mick Jagger can barely get up off the couch to go to bed every night, they still have it. Outside of that world, they really should just get the hell out of the spotlight and let people with fully-functioning prostates do the rockin'.

I agree with Kicky, here. They don't still got it.

They used to, but it's all over now.

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for them ripping off the easily nostalgic. And why stop after things slow down for you musically, when you can still make loads of cash? I'm still rooting for them.

Songs like Start Me Up and Satisfaction, to me, resonate about as much as a cell phone ring or the blip-blip-blip of items being scanned at Wal-Mart. Those songs have become white noise, played on every ******* commerical, on the radio all the time.

But if the Stones had played Paint It Black at halftime, this would be an entirely differen post.
