Hey what's with this guy Marc Landerman? I was so exasperated after reading his comments. This was written in one of the Boston newspapers.
"I know what Rolling Stones fans look like nowadays - they are old and fat," said Marc Landerman, chairman of the Fenway Community Development Corp. "I don't expect there will be a big uproar."
How do the rest of you longtime Stones fans feel? |

He's probably 90% accurate.
We are the rock equivelant of Jimmy Buffet fans.
Put it this way - I think Slipknot have a younger demographic. |

The Stones are far from fat. What an ignorant asshole. |

Where did the spring go?
Where did the trees go?
Where did the sun go?
Where did the bluebirds fly?
Why did the rainbow turn into shadows?
Why am I cold now?
Why does my skin sag?
Why ain't my back straight?
Why do my feet ache?
Where did my youth go?
Where did my life go?
Remember walking in the rain,
And getting soaking wet,
Now I got rheumatic pains,
And I really do regret it.
(...)
Where did my teeth go?
Where did my hair go?
Where did my shoulders go?
Where did my chest go?
Where did my hormones go?
Where did my go go?
Where did my energy go?
Where did my skin go?
Where did my muscles go?
Where did my liver go?
Where did my heart go?
Where did my bones go? |

he didnt say the Stones were fat.
He said their fans were
anyway, looks like Fenway is going to be full of old fatties for two nights in August
The vote was carried unaninimously. Now it's just up to the city to give the gigs the go-ahead, which will probably be a mere formality.

Well I'm 18. I've been a Stones fan for over 10 years.
I am a skinny 5'8.
That man is a moron.
There already has been uproar.
Jimmy Buffet SUCKS!
