It’s Friday night in Wash, D.C. I’ve taken off from blogging as all this Kathy Sierra, porno banning, Imus scandaling, war raging, bloggers blogging, beheamouths purchasing, leveraged money guys spewing, rich people a partying just bores me - to be honest.

But when a friend pointed me to the post on Rolling Stone magazine launching a social network - I thought: “Gosh that’s something I should blog about.”

So I took off from my crazily busy life and spent :03 putting up a post which acknowledged that some of us ‘older types really would use a social network, if I knew my constituents, my homeboys, all my grrrrls, my friends, peeps like me - would be on that network. I suggested that we could all reminisce about our favorite concerts we ever attended.

I even plopped down a couple of old found memories of the two most memorable concerts I ever attended - and you know what happened? This:

Yo - Mo.

I hate to break this to you - but I actually did read the post, I actually did go see the Stones in ‘72 and was almost trampled upon as 50,000 funk fans went ah-rioting in Grant Park when Sly Stone never showed up. I know you must think all us hippy types are just stupid, but dude - life is for living.

Go have a drink or do whatever it is you do. I don’t drink.

And I do know the difference between the magazine, and the subject of that famous song - versus - the greatest rock and roll band - that will ever be.

The 1969 tour of the Rolling Stones produced the greatest live album ever.  Its called “Get Yer Ya-Ya’s Out”.  That album blew my mind and changed my life.  I attended the 1972 tour - wishing that they’d play everything that was on the album.  They did.

Mo - I highly suggest you go and download a copy and don’t “bust a button on yer trousers” - “cause you don’t want Mick’s trousers to fall down now - do yah?”
