Forgiving the Rolling Stones
The Rolling Stones are playing Blackpool, England for the first time in 44 years after the town lifted a ban imposed after a 1964 concert caused riots.
A lot of things that seemed dangerous in 1964 now seem almost quaint -- heck, Holiday Inn even lifted their ban on The Who now that the biggest problem the band causes them is Pete Townsend waking up to got the bathroom every twenty minutes.
Right now I'm listening to the soundtrack to Scorsese's new Stones documentary, Shine a Light, streaming free here.
There's a version of "Loving Cup" with Jack White. Nice.
