I'm glad for a lot of the younger fans that our boys
finally seem to be back on top of the charts. But if
I remember from back in the day that can be a mixed
blessing too. Most folks like whatever is popular,
so now they'll like the Stones too, for awhile.
That includes all the people you can't stand,
who don't really get it, are just into it
coz everybody else is. And to stay on
top the band is going to be under
pressure to keep playing to them,
giving them what they want.
Popular doesn't necessarily
mean better..................
Still, it's a moment to celebrate,
but for my money, I like the Stones
with or without the worldwide kudos,
and just hope/ trust, that as
always they'll stay true to
the rock.
Enjoy!
