Mick Jagger

Well, and, and innovation comes from, from, you know, necessity and good ideas.

Uh, y- I don't know what year it was, maybe late '63, when Mick Jagger said to, to Keith Richards, "You know, the difference between us and The Beatles, the biggest difference is they write their own songs.

We're gonna have to go ahead and do that." And they started writing their own songs, and, and they became The Rolling Stones that we know today.

So, like, uh, just, just doing the same thing over and over again because it's, it's easy or it's not complicated or controversial, I think it's the most dangerous thing in the world because people are gonna tune it out eventually.

Did they all work out? No, they did not.

But I loved it.

But okay, let's use Mick Jagger as an example.

If Mick's not looking to be better than The Beatles or compete with The Beatles or say, "Hey, we can be as good as The Beatles," he doesn't decide we gotta stop doing covers and write our own songs.

In music this weekend, it is Classic Stones Live, a tribute show taking place at the Baker Street Center at 323 West Baker Street.

Showtime is at 7.30, tickets starting at $39.55. Frontman Keith Call has all the moves and swagger of Mick Jagger, and his partner in crime Bernie Bolendorf, who portrays rock and roll outlaw Keith Richards.

They complete the duo notoriously hailed as the Glimmer Twins.

Their jaw-dropping resemblance to the two rock and roll icons is simply amazing.

Oh, that was

Van Morrison at the beginning, not Mick Jagger.

TB Sheets by Van Morrison.

Yeah.

But I do think that his impact on popular music writ large, like rock and roll in the broadest sense of the word, is the kind of thing that is actually indelible, is gonna be remembered 300 years from now.

You can look at the people who point to him as their number one inspiration, Michael Jackson, Prince, Mick Jagger, David Bowie.

I mean, like, people who are in the upper, upper echelons of, like, who is who in rock history.

I also think, you know, that extends even into hip-hop.

They just said 20th century music.

That's a good point, actually.

I think they're getting at the same thing that they recognize that his influence is just as broad as you stated, because you mentioned David Bowie and Mick Jagger.

And then like hip hop would not exist without James Brown and frankly, like outtakes from his band.

She told LA Weekly.

All right, Mick Jagger.

My boy.

Mick Jagger, prior to running around on stage as a front man of the Rolling Stones, Mick Jagger was running errands as a hospital porter in a psychiatric facility.

Oh, wow.

Tom Morello of Audioslave and what's the other band?

names of people in that guest book as well.

Like, what? The guest book has got the best Mick Jagger and Keith Richards signatures I've ever seen.

It's a beautiful mix.

It's a full page.

The thing about it is it's not like a... you know, where they're asked to do a street graph, you know, Keith, sign, you know, Roger, sign this for us in the street while they're running into a restaurant or, you know, getting into a limo.

This is a proper, you know, what we call sit down.

signing so as I say the Mick Jagger and the Keith Richards are the absolute best I've seen if you collect Rolling Stones memorabilia then they're two beautiful autographs and I will digress for a moment when we're talking about autographs because it does tie in and we've actually got a Nirvana poster in the auction.

I don't know if you've looked at that in your research, but when I say sit down signing sort of like where they're not stressed, they're not pushed.

do it? Yeah.

Oh, yeah, I can hit my Mick Jagger lips.

See?

See, if this was a video podcast, everyone would have seen me form lips with my lower gut.

Well,

between him and then, you know, Justin and I talked about Mick Jagger.

Yeah.

And somebody put on, we talked about this about a year or so ago because I saw him in New York and the Rolling Stones.

Fallon did the template for this.

When he did the mirror skit with Mick Jagger, that was brilliant, man.

By the way, I'm not... you know, I want to keep politics out of this out of respect for you, but like, however you lean politically, you can't deny when Maya Rudolph did the mirror skit on SNL with, you know, Kamala Harris, like that wasn't gold.

Of course it was that like skips, you know, it's funny, Josh skips all about he skip, even though it's old school, he's all about monetization and all about reach.
