At the first of two Los Angeles-area concerts Thursday, Mick Jagger reeled off a list of celebrities, real and imagined, whom he said were attending the Rolling Stones’ opening night at SoFi …

“There’s so many celebrities here tonight,” Jagger said early in the show. “Megan Fox is here, she’s lovely. Lady Gaga. Kirk Douglas. Paul McCartney is here; he’s going to help us — he’s going to join us in a blues cover.”

What Jagger was alluding to was a new profile of McCartney in the New Yorker magazine, in which the ex-Beatle told editor David Remnick: “I’m not sure I should say it, but they’re a blues cover band, that’s sort of what the Stones are. … I think our net was cast a bit wider than theirs.” The rivalry between the two rock legends has seemed somewhere between whimsical and dead-serious in recent years.

The big difference, though, is and sort of slightly seriously, is that the Rolling Stones have been a big concert band in other decades and other eras when the Beatles never even did an arena tour, Madison Square Garden with a decent sound system. They broke up before that business started, the touring business for real.”

RUDE!

Waiting outside for hours in Ann Arbor in December was no problem bc we got in to see John Lennon perform “Ten For Two,” his anthem to Free John Sinclair! Lennon was always exciting! Surprising! Paul was pretty and wrote very pleasant songs.

The undercurrent I believe is MickJagger, former LSEEcon student, is envious PaulMcCartney is more financially successful than he, hence touring even when the “Stones” are down to only 2 original members. I believe a Mick and officialKeef blues hour w/be far more interesting.

'I was always very respectful about Mick and the Stones, but he said a lot of sort of tarty things about The Beatles, which I am hurt by, because you know, I can knock the Beatles, but don't let Mick Jagger knock them.” John Lennon
