Sweet Neo-Con


On the soon to be released Rolling Stones album there's a politically tinged song titled "Sweet Neo-Con". It's quite critical of some recent U.S. foreign policy moves.

Will Sir Mick and the boys be "Dixie Chicked" as the vast right wing conspiracy get their Ya-Yas out, or will the legions of still smoking 50-65 years olds rush to Give 'Em Shelter?

You mean those wrinkled up corpses are still writing songs? How could a band that's been dead since the late 70's do that??? Next thing you know we'll have more multi-milionaries telling us working folks how the rich steal from us!!! Where's Bruce Springsteen when you need him.

It never ceases to amaze me how washed up has-beens feel the need to put out a new LP just to prove they have nothing left to say!

They've gathered a little too much moss!
Speaking as an artist, and knowing many aritists in the music industry, the art community, the photography community, the poetry community, the ceramic community, and the sculpture community, etc... I hope nobody ever tells me to stop doing what I love doing, simply because they don't appreciate it.

As Dylan (another of those wrinkled up corpses) once wrote: "..don't criticize, what you can't understand."

Besides, age discrimination is just another form of intolerance.
Mick's so old, that if he "Can't Get No Satisfaction"...he should try Viagra!
Many of the great blues musicians perform(ed) into their senior years. They just got better or do ya'll consider them washed up has-beens. I'd have given my eye teeth to have seen Muddy Waters, Lightnin' Hopkins, Sonny Boy Williamson, Howlin Wolf and many others at any point in their careers. The Stones have'nt been successful all by them selves. Weren’t they inspired by some of the blues musicians I just named?
