Totally awesome. Keith has survived against all odds and predictions. Still doing what he does. Looking back at some of the best rock ever done. A new movie called "Charlie is my Darling" follows them on an Ireland tour in 1965. So quaint to see them playing on a crowded stage before perhaps 5000 people. People rushing the stage and jumping up on it to get a touch or a kiss. Days long gone. Only the dinosaurs remember them. When rock took the first stumbles from the prom stage to the arenas. This film shows the naivete of the band and not a glimpse that they had any foretelling of the fifty years to come. Brian Jones and Bill Wyman brought a particular feel to the band that has been long lost but it did not lead to the demise of the band. The mercurial personalities of Mick and Keith have provided enough fodder to manipulate millions of dollars and a legend from that little old Brit band. Totally awesome.
