Mick probably hopes the same - to be back performing.
He loves it.

Robert Redford played his most recent movie as 83, Clint Eastwood as 88.

What you have to remember is he is losing strength and fitness as he recuperates. It will take a while to get back in shape even after he is medically cleared.
A footballer, for example, after a surgery is put right back to exercise. The best recovery is to exercise. So, you will probably have MJ already sitting on a training bike or similar keeping him in shape. The worst recovery is to sit back and doing nothing - it is exactly the biggest chance for any complication because you get weak. Lot's of people think it is best to relax, overprotect - it is not. The body can not fall apart doing nothing.

Being up and about after almost any type of surgery is very important. Mick will have a physical therapy program to follow to slowly ramp things up, so he can't just lay around and rest even he wanted to. Agree definitely not tour ready. Two /three months maybe. However, it's not only what Mick does on stage. Touring alone is grueling.
As an aside, nice pic of the Jagger boys together in the same article.
BUT the obvious difference is that the musicians above don't spend a couple of hours running about all over the stage.
The challenge for Mick is wether he can adjust his stage movements at this point in his career. He may not be capable of 'slowing down'.
Agreed.His dance down the catwalk routine for Midnight Rambler is simply incredible for s man his age. Amazing as it is to watch, He maybe needs to cut out stuff like that and pace himself better.
If you look at early footage from say, 1963-1967, his movement on stage was pretty much dancing on the spot. The crazy stuff he still does now arrived in the large arena/stadium era.
It shows the same pic.
"Running around", "jumping around", -you make it sound so stupid. I guess it`s part of the formula in the same way as songs like Midnight Rambler, Sympathy, Satisfaction... As Jagger probably would say; "you don`t mess with those songs".
Talk about your favorite band.

In my opinion, the Stones should retire. Mick, your health is more important than a band. If you're not 100% then just walk away. No harm in that. You've already proved what you wanted to prove. I think it's a selfish thing for us to discuss when the new tour will be rescheduled. Some things are more important than our own personal enjoyment. Retire from the road, enjoy your remaining days on earth with your family.

I wouldn't bury him yet. I've had some fairly serious heart events and have recovered nicely - no, I don't exert like Mick does - and feel sure he will do the same.
Maybe not as much running around, but like some have said, who cares? Yes, maybe it's selfish, but I hope to see Mick performing soon.
Mick probably hopes the same - to be back performing.
He loves it.

I play instruments. What I meant by retire was retire from the road. Elton John is doing that. Paul Simon, too. Bowie did it. Glen Campbell. Linda Ronstadt. Lots more. If Mick can't do it anymore, then don't.Quote

I think some are underestimating Mick's drive and Type A desire to be the best and let nothing get in the way of his plans. I would think he sees this as a great challenge. Mick's been in great shape for so long he's got the best chance for a full and quick recovery.

From all reports sounds like everything went very well. No complications.
The recuperation time from these procedures is 2 weeks.
Being very conservative 6 weeks and should be 100%.
They should be able to go in late May/June.
Which is why the July start being rumored baffles me.
June weatherwise is much more forgiving than July.
Just happy everything went well!
What you have to remember is he is losing strength and fitness as he recuperates. It will take a while to get back in shape even after he is medically cleared.

Awesome to see Mick out and about! Once the rescheduled dates are announced we should all buy some of the pricier tickets to show our love and support for him. That would no doubt help in lifting his spirits.

‘Tour ready’? How? It’s a seventy-something strolling in the park. Let him rest; even if it’s indefinite. We’ve enjoyed so much; he’s given so much. Thanks, Sir Michael.

To be honest, I think the running around has gotten ridiculous. Probably a result of stadium era Stones and having to cover so much ground but back in the day it was a lot more dancing and a lot less running around.

YES! Would rather hear him sing the songs properly instead of all the pointless running around. We get it Mick...you are in great shape-you can still do it. OK. Why continually prove it over and over?? Just sing instead of shout..take your time, maybe if you conserve energy you can add a few more songs to the paltry 19 set. A b-stage with 3-4 blues or R&B numbers from the old days would be a welcome change. You don't have to impress anyone anymore Mick.Quote

I adore "the running around". I pray he can still do it but if he can't that's fine too. 75 and running around...he is my hero!!

Agreed.His dance down the catwalk routine for Midnight Rambler is simply incredible for s man his age. Amazing as it is to watch, He maybe needs to cut out stuff like that and pace himself better.
If you look at early footage from say, 1963-1967, his movement on stage was pretty much dancing on the spot. The crazy stuff he still does now arrived in the large arena/stadium era.
