Uggh, my head just exploded a little bit, trying to fit Biden & Jagger in the same photo.

But a more realistic assessment:

How Joe wants to be thought of (like those ol' Obama days...):

But if he's looking for his target demo, esp. after those last polls, I think this one has it pegged:

Maybe it work out for Biden too, contra Michael's title? Mick is 75 and Joe is 76, just sayin'

The Lennon interview parrots

In reply to The craggy-faced "been around

The Lennon interview parrots (sorry, Monty) all of that - while everyone was stuck on Pat Boone or Jan & Dean, there was this pack of Lennon and Jagger and Eric Burdon (Animals) etc. And Lennon notes that while they messed up that cleanness in America (and notes Chuck Berry as being a roughneck outcast wildboy even for black audiences, too crazy rock 'n roll), he also notes the British public was no better - just he and his mates were in their own bubble. (Herman's Hermits? really?)

In reply to When they said the only

The craggy-faced "been around the block some" thing was part of their appeal from the getgo. It was part of their appeal from the getgo that they were not fresh faced boys. The Dave Clark Five, The Beach Boys or The Beatles could not do Paint It Black, Gimme Shelter or Sympathy for The Devil. Hard to synch playing heavy-blues/soul-influenced rock with nubility, youth and innocence. So it not so much a surprise that the gig still fits their advanced age as long as they can move--that's the "rock n/roll" part. As for the blues/soul part, more's the better the more life experience. I.E., nobody complained B.B. King or Aretha was too old.

P.S. The humor, though, that's Brit. And being a person that has always taken delight in cross-cultural oddities, I have always loved that they are a Brit version of all of the above.

When they said the only survivors of a nuclear war would be cockroaches, you didn't think that out clearly, didya?

A generation or so ago they were designing Pirate characters around Keith - now it's Tales From the Crypt.

As long as he has 2 hands for the guitar and 2 lips for the cigarette, that's the way it's gonna be. I suspect there'll be a philosophical end-of-life decision to pull the tube based exactly on these criteria [if there's a cadaver-like figure of Keith that can't even smoke but can still repetitively hit the 1st chord(s) of Honky Tonk Woman for months, does he really exist? or is it time?]

I dunno...there is the commonplace trope "It's time we gave some thought to the world we are going to leave to Keith".
