I saw the Rolling Stones in Austin!

The venue was huge. It was an outdoor concert and we stood the entire time. (I thought we were gonna have seats..LOL)
It was at a Formula One racetrack.

Mick Jagger's voice and dance moves have not changed. Mick apparently familiarizes himself with locations prior to going onstage. He says, "What do you think of Elon Musk moving to Austin?"...The crowd all says, "Boo!"

Images from Saturday's concert:




Steve Jordan is the new drummer

We just got home. We stayed in the parking lot until after 1 am, then drove back to San Antonio.

Mick does indeed like learning about the places he performs

I saw Ron Wood at the Armadillo in Austin back in the day, doing a benefit for his buddy Ronnie Lane.

Moving so fluidly at age 78. I'm not even 50 yet and I have arthritis in my neck and frozen shoulder. I couldn't move like Mick with the lower half of my body, let alone the upper half!

Before the show. Casually having a drink just like any regular person.
