I hate the thread that uses the straw man argument.
Please point out who's said they should hang it up.

All of us die hards that have been to so many shows are just jaded and hard
to please. With that said, however, at times the sound is so soft and tempo
so slow it is hard to listen to . Keith, in particular, has declined more than
any other player still alive from his generation.

So who more appropriate to sing about it (which, as the song notes, is all they could do at the time, too)?

You must not hate it too much - you read it! Anyway, for the longest time as a follower of this fine board, MANY posters have whined and complained that the Stones need to call it a day, that they are just a shadow of their glory days. I respect that opinion, as I am not the final word on who thinks what. My point is nothing more than my perspective on the trash talking I have seen on here over the years. I am just taking the opposing side - as long as the music keeps playing, I will take all we can get!

treaclefingers and EddieByword: if you do a search for the phrase "hang it up", you will find plenty of examples. I could do you a big post full of quotes, but why should I do all the work?
I do notice that the "hang it up" posts sort of tailed off a bit after December 2012.

LOL. The current line-up are now geriatric tax exile mega-millionaires, one of whom is a Knight of the Realm. I don't think we'll ever see them protesting the Establishment.

Past a certain point, performers should quit what they're doing and do something else. That point is either when what they are doing seems really inappropriate for their age
