Chatting with the Rolling Stones
Friday in the Salt Lake Tribune, legendary Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards and singer Mick Jagger chat with music writer Dan Nailen about the band's new album, their love of country music and the band's current tour, stopping at Salt Lake City's Delta Center Tuesday.
During the conversation, Richards described how seeing older acts like B.B. King and Willie Nelson out on the road is inspiring, and how playing live until you die is part of the reason he got into music.
"To us, it's part of the example," Richards said, speaking of the older acts still touring the world. "It's the same way I think about Muddy Waters or the blues guys, or even Duke Ellington and Count Basie. Nobody expected them to retire. You just carry on with it.
"To me, it is the longevity. Where can you take the music?
You don't do it just to do it. There's a sort of fascinating thing of saying, 'Where can I take this music now? Where can it go?' And it's sort of this fascination with not getting off the bus."
