Only Rock And Roll

[poliphilo]

I like the Stones well enough but  when Keith Richards complains about Adele being too show-biz I wonder what he thinks he's been doing for the last fifty years. The Stones have only ever sold the one unchanging product and are now as venerable and unchallenging as Bruce Forsyth.  If a Stone's concert isn't show biz what on earth does he think it is?

Yep they are just as show biz as any other act.

And what's wrong with that?

As the old song says, There's no business like it.

That strikes me as a case of the pot calling the kettle black indeed!

Very much so.

This is the same man that says, in the 'introductory' movie at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, that he will never play Rock and Roll (if) he is old? Yeah.

Changed his mind on that one, didn't he!

One thing he and I agree on..I Do Not like Adele.

I've never gone out of my way to listen to her. Putting the music to one side, she seems quite a jolly lass.

She is my supervisor's FAVORITE and I get to hear her music at least once a day. I won't say anything about it because she's never said anything to me about Hank Wiiliams.
