Title: What makes "em tick?
Post by MaineMotels on Oct 19^th, 2008 at 5:09pm

What factor (s) makes the Stones tick so long. Almost 50 years is unheard for any kind of band. I won't post a poll because I can't pin it down. I think I might know.

Old blues guys (like Keith once pointed it out) have been doing it longer then The Stones have, look at Chuck Berry, he's in his 80 I believe, could be wrong, but he was one of the artists who influenced The Stones, B.B. King is another guy that's way up there in years.

" The Stones have, look at Chuck Berry, he's in his 80 I believe, could be wrong, but he was one of the artists who influenced The Stones, B.B. King is another guy that's way up there in years "

...and both artists are still GREAT !!!

If B.B. King & Chuck Berry are still touring in their mid - 80's then Mick and Keith and MACCA and The Who are going to be performing WELL in to their 80's or even 90 . Word .

Snuggles ! ™
