Plus, I may have to reconsider seeing the film after imagining big screen close-ups of Keith Richards.<BR/><BR/>This is beside the point, but Michael Flatley doesn't hold my attention for even one minute. Take a note, Mr. LOTD: variety is the spice of life. Wait, to be slightly more self-descriptive, how does "the salsa of our existence" sound? God I'm glad you took that guy down.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1833907669377506399.post-64533197943250532062008-04-10T08:26:00.000-07:002008-04-10T08:26:00.000-07:00Botched - Yes, drunk with passion...Steve - Even t...Botched - Yes, drunk with passion...<BR/><BR/>Steve - Even though I love their music and have about fifteen of their albums, I can't watch the Rolling Stones live for more than a few minutes.

I was a student/vagabond absorbing culture and counter-culture in Europe at the time. Classes had ended and I was in Geneva on a rainy day. I was looking through the guidebook for museum options when I came upon a theatre playing <I>The Last Waltz</I>. After too many Titians and Durers as it was, I figured a movie concert would be a nice change of pace. The screen was cluttered with both German and French subtitles, but it was the music that mattered. I came out feeling proud to be North American. Seeing the McDonald's next door brought me down again, though not all the way.<BR/><BR/>I don't know whether Scorsese can recreate similar magic with <I>Shine the Light</I>, his new Rolling Stones IMAX movie, but I plan to find out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1833907669377506399.post-56870880739685250092008-04-09T19:47:00.000-07:002008-04-09T19:47:00.000-07:00Are you drunk again?BotchedAre you drunk again?<BR/><BR/>BotchedAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
