Sweet Neo-Con

First, I think that a serious artist in any medium has an obligation to produce works that evoke an emotional response. Political subjects are certainly fair game! A rambling diatribe [either liberal or conservative] given during a concert or a press interview doesn't qualify as art, merely opinion...there is a difference!

Second, I find it amusing that some British artists will criticize the politics of the USA, and then set up residency here to avoid their high tax payments in the UK.

Third, Mick has not been able to sing live for some 20 years now!

Uh-oh!!! Bono is going to be sooooo jealous!!!!!! Cat fight!!!! meow-meow....

Imagine that! After 20 years I just might have to buy a Rolling Stones Album!
; )

Exile on Main Street was the last serious listen I gave to the Stones. Sorry, I just can't take them serious.

I haven't heard anything good since "Some Girls" and even that album though eblematic of its time (Miss You= Disco Stones) it was still vastly inferior to Exile and previous work. Now Mick and the Boys look like those Kroft puppets. Totally irrelevant caricatures of themselves. The fact that they still sell out shows proves P.T. Barnum knew what he was talking about.
