Alright so, why should they retire?

Your avatar is cracking me up. Sometimes I send that pic to my mom when I'm drunk. Roosevelt Franklin, man.

But yeah, they're old as hell now. Die-hards are glad they're still around but some of us are side-glancing at Keith Richards wondering if he's still alive or died 40 years ago and he's the only real zombie that's ever existed.

I know this dude who's about twice my age and he's completely obsessed with the Stones. I trust him when he says that they kick ass on stage.

They have become a nostalgia act. Their last good album was Tattoo You and that was 33 years ago. People who think they are still good would say the same if they came out with walkers and wheelchairs. Their sound is no longer relevant or pleasing. Let it go. The past is gone. Let them die with dignity.
