AHAHHA..... I agree man. Ability to tour & driver licenses all revoked at 70.
With the exception of Jimmy Page and Robert Plant of course. They can go on until 80. They just both need face lifts though. ha.
I think that as long as people want to see them, and as long as they can play (without sounding like crap), then they should rock on for as long as they'd like to!
learn how to spell man, thats constitution and that is STUPID because they should play till they can't play no more
ROCK AND ROLL IS ABOUT YOUNG LOVE- SEEING AND DOING THINGS FOR THE FIRST TIME - REBELLING AGAINST AUTHORITY- NOT OLD MEN WITH WALKERS SINGING "HOPE I DIE BEFORE I GET OLD"
thats dum! these artist love making music,love recording and love touring so why should we have a say to when they have to stop? the stones are in there 60s and i have been waiting sooo long for them to go on tour so i can see them cause the only time I've seen them is on t.v. and too me they still have that kick ass sound no matter how old they get.
I think they should play until they A. aren't able to play anymore, or B. don't WANT to play anymore. This is their life, it's what they do. They've spent their whole lives on this, do you have any idea how bored they would be if they just stopped? My point is, it's up to them. They're not hurting you by continuing to perform. If you don't want to see them, don't effin' go. If all these people, that have created this beautiful music just stop, who the hell are we gonna go see? There are so many people I haven't yet had the chance to see live. If they stop touring, I'll *never* see them. EVER. Just let them do what they love, and don't judge them for it. Besides, old people are awesome. =) (oh, and all caps suck)
I agree with Jenny. There are some great Artists out there that still are doing some really good stuff at an "elder" age: B.B. King, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, Ringo, The Stones, etc. As long as they are in good health, have the drive and their Fans come out to support them!
hey kat,
i beleive they should stop touring when they take a notion too...freak
PEOPLE ENJOY WATCHING LAWRENCE WELK - IT'S NOT ROCK, IT'S MEMORIES - A 70 YEAR OLD MAN SINGING ABOUT YOUNG LOVE IS CREEPY
I think these guys should stop touring if there isn't any members left. Their ticket prices are so expensive. These guys don't need the money for instance I was on ticket master the other day it was almost 300 dollars a ticket to see The WHO. Come on there are only 2 members left in the group and they should stop touring. Come on you don't see Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr touring as the Beatles do you? No because it wouldn't sound the same with out John Lennon or George Harrison. Now if you have all the band members then they should tour for a while longer.
GREAT EXAMPLE OF WHAT I'M SAYING - A FRIEND SAW GEORGE JONES IN NASHVILLE, IN. - HIS HEARING IS SO BAD HE WOULD LOSE HIS PLACE AND HAVE TO WATCH ONE OF THE BAND MEMBERS TO GET CAUGHT UP - NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO HOLD THE MIKE TO HIS MOUTH FOR A WHOLE SONG - CAN ANYONE IMAGE KISS IN THEIR 70'S
