While not as mundane and dated as the needlepoint cover originally
"revealed", still extraordinarily mundane and dated. In fact, from any
distance at all, it still looks like needlepoint.
One thing very appropriate: The last time doing a button collage like this
was cool was 50 years ago.
From the article: "One
complicated part of the process was choosing
the right font for the word '50' – some fonts looked too much like the word 'SO'."
1) LOL! "Complicated"! LOL!
2) LOL! Because the truth is they chose one of the
very few fonts
where the "5" definitely implies an upper case "S", because of the
downturned serif at the end of the top of the "5". LOL!
3) LOL! The Stones themselves have now implanted what will become the
enduring meme of their 50th, "The Rolling Stones SO?". Damn I should have
thought of that! LOL!
4) The subtle but
intentional killing-off of the Stones continues.
It is by far the most fascinating aspect of this anniversary period.
