JJ Flash, its a gas, gas gas...

On Sunday afternoon, we spent 2 glorious hours with the Bad Boys of our generation. I think whatever your age, the music of your youth will always hold a soft spot in your heart and getting to see them on the 5 story IMax screen, doesn't hurt either. Besides being in little piggy girl music heaven, I walked away with a new found sense of age. If you are trying to talk to your kids about the dangers of sex, drugs and rock and roll - I would stay away from mentioning the Stones. Mick Jagger works the stage like a teenager. His muscles are ripped, you could bounce quarters off his abs and his stamina is amazing. Even Keith Richards, who repeatedly got on his knees to play and got right back up again - goes against everything we have ever learned about health and taking care of one's self. Make no mistake, they are Bad Boys, very Bad Boys but they have endured and have come thru the fire. You can't live that lifestyle for over 45 years and still do what they do. Oh yes you can and they do. Saw one interview with Richards and he said that these days, he can party or perform, not both on the same day. Forget exercise, got to start smoking, partying and playing in a rock band. Seems like one could live forever or it would sure feel like it. Another chapter in the Life Ain't Fair book. The dudes just rock the house...
