32 years ago. And they are still touring.
ReplyDeleteIndeed. I can remember slagging off the big 'greatest hits' tour the Stones did in 1989 or 1990, I can't remember, and around that time in a singles review talking about how daft it was that Mick Jagger was still playing the randy teenager on record - predicting that he would carry on until the liver spots showed on his hands. I don't think I could have imagined Macca headlining Glastonbury though or the other Sixties giants lumbering on into their late '70s and '80s.
ReplyDeleteOf course I am older now myself than The Who or Jagger were in the late '80s - just as I am older than the candidates for Tory leader / Prime Minister Unelect. Boris Johnson is exactly one year younger than me (born June 19 1964) but Keir Starmer is 9 months older.
