In 2008 ( September the 17 th ) Mick Jagger has been named an adviser by Neelie Kroes, the European commissioner for competition. He has been assigned the task of aiding the European authorities on the subject of online music sales and multimedia content on the web. Jagger will be part of a work group led by Ben Verwaayen, who is also chief executive of Alcatel-Lucent, which will bring together some of the biggest names in the multi-national business world such as Apple CEO Steve Jobs, the vice-chairman of Fiat John Elkann, as well as Ebay's president John Donahoe.

I am a Frenchie ,as Mick affectionately called them in the Old Grey Whistle Test in 1977 .

Neelie Kroes is pure Rock 'n Roll.
