Mick Jagger loves anything with a vagina. And, on occasion, David Bowie.
Bowie probably has some famous dead person's vagina in jar of formaldehyde somewhere in his mansion.
And Mick is Mick. Yes, his band hasn't done anything relevant in about 15 years, and I was always more of a Keith guy (the girl I lost my virginity to said I reminded her of him, I spit out a molar and said "thanks,"), but he had a hand in some of the greatest music of the late 20th century.
I'm babbling. I had a weird night. There was a four alarm fire down the block from me and the Twin Donut and the McDonalds are now gone. Plus something is making my right eye hurt like a bitch.
To derail: the Stones do seem to like Canada, especially Toronto. They usually start their tours playing (at least) one "secret" gig in a Toronto club, rehearse their tour in town (for as much as a month). They were the headliner for the SARS benefit last summer, which was a huge deal in TO at the time. They're playing, what, 6 dates in the north this tour, 3 or 4 more than most tours, which typically hit TO, Montreal and maybe Vancouver. The cool thing is that this time, they're playing, of all places, Moncton NB, which is over the moon at hosting their first stadium concert ever.
So yeah, the creepy old men really do love us (and our former PM's wives in particular).
Oh, I loves me some Mick. Always have, always will, since I was about 14. Even though now he's like a caricature of himself I'd still go for it. Although, like iconomy, I'm too old for him. ;-)
