Stuart Is A Stones Fan

Stuart Is A Stones Fan

Stuart is a Rolling Stones fan. He’s been a fan of theirs for fifty years. That’s almost his entire life!

Stuart has been to over 100 Stones concerts in numerous locations and each one has been different. Each time he knows what to expect: great music, a great time and moves like only Jagger can give.

But recently Stu attended a Stones show and things didn’t seem and sound just right. Eighty-year-old (almost 81) Mick seemed “off” and just wasn’t moving like Jagger used to. Eighty-year-old (almost 81) Keith Richards seemed to be playing guitar riffs in the wrong places. The music just wasn’t right.

Yet nobody in the sold out stadium was seen leaving. Everyone stayed for the entire two hour set. Everyone had a great time. Even Mick and Keith seemed to be having a great time, despite Mick almost falling flat on his face and Keith dropping his guitar. And Stu was having a great time. To him none of the “mishaps” mattered. Because he loves the Stones and has for most of his life. The music makes him and everyone in the stadium happy. It obviously makes the Rolling Stones happy too, since they’ve been at it since 1962.

Stu has been to other Stones shows where things weren’t “perfect”. That impromptu show at Sir Morgan’s back in the 80’s was his favorite “not perfect” show.

Do the “not perfect” shows or concert “mishaps” of an aging iconic rock band matter to Stu or millions of other fans? FUCK NO! Because they will love the Stones no matter what. They will stand by them no matter what. They will be with them until the day the Stones say “retired” and Keith goes solo. The Stones, nor their fans, aren’t letting a few “mishaps” during a show stop them from making music or touring.

Why should it be any different for an 81-year-old presidential candidate?
