65 is the new 39!Mick Jagger was 65 this past July.
Two and a half years older than yours truly.
He is a lean, mean rock and roll machine who moves like a man in his 30s. If he was five years old, some concerned parent would have him on Ritalin.
“Shine a Light” is the Martin Scorcese film about the Stones.
It’s is actually a concert, or two, with some old film clips added.
We saw it last in the Sacramento IMAX theater last May. Our pal, Meredith S. wrote about it back then so we went. I am just commenting on it now because I am a left-handed Saggitarius... which makes me a natural procrastinator prone to sentimentality (thanks M) and many other disturbing characteristics.
It was a magnificent piece of entertainment.
But this is not a review of the film. No Sireee...
It is a statement of awe. Mick and his band are still squeezing all they can out of life. It’s amazing.
Makes me want to lose (quite) a few pounds then go out and dance my ass off.
