He's five years older than me, but other than that, I couldn't agree more. We saw him in 2009 in Nampa, Idaho, of all places, and he was unbelievable. It's a small venue and we had the second-cheapest seats they were selling. With an audience of 10,000, and the Stones' stage that rolls out into the middle of the audience, it was almost like a personal performance.It was a couple of weeks after Mick Jagger's dad died, and about a week after Keith Richards fell out of a tree and had a concussion. Despite all of the challenges, they rocked liked nobody I've ever seen before, and I've seen a lot of live performers over the years. They didn't start until about 9 p.m., which is past my bedtime anymore, and I was cranky, whining that they'd probably play for an hour while whining at the audience, then leave, as Stevie Wonder had when we saw him a few years earlier. First up was "Jumping Jack Flash," and I told Gerry it already felt like I'd gotten my money's worth. Then they performed for three full hours, and they weren't winding down, they were still cranking it up. It was phenomenal. They are amazing.Kitty Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15141714964347824839noreply@blogger.com
