Sometimes I wonder why the Stones are still rolling on after all these
years, but after the show in L.A last night I know it’s because their
love for the music and the pure enjoyment they feel when playing for
the world cannot be easily let go. The show in L.A can be compared when
Martin Luther posted the 95 Theses on the door of the castle church
sending notice to all those past and presence and leaving no question
to who is still the greatest band ever. No show on this tour has come
close to the set they played last night; I may be more inclined to laud
the show I went to but it was incredible. Mick reminiscing on being
back in L.A said, “We haven’t played this joint since 1975, and we hear
it has become a church,� referring to the Forum in Inglewood which is
now used for Sunday Gospels. This led into Far Away Eyes with Mick on
guitar and Ronnie on slide, which drove the crowd when he sang the
line, “Well the preacher went right on saying that all I have to do is
send ten dollars to the Church of Sacred Bleeding Heart of Jesus
located somewhere in Los Angeles California and next week they played
my prayer on the radio and all my dreams will come true, so I did next
week I got a prayer for a girl well you what kind of eyes she got.� It
almost made me cry hearing this song, after being preceded by Sway and
followed by Worried about you, a peace came over me reenergizing and
breathing fresh life into my soul. There are sometimes in life when we
feel the world around us is too overwhelming and our worries seem to
surround us like the feelings of despair, dissolution and desolation
in the darkness hours of night, but then you hear such a beautiful,
heartfelt outpouring of emotion, and you realize these temporary
feelings can and will never last and that a light is always shining at
the end of the road and the only limits to what your future holds is
what you allow. The inspiration and motivation to love and enjoy life
and seize the moment everyday is the message the Rolling Stones have
brought to this world, and for everyone who needs encouragement and
support in your times of need, listen to their music and the words will
guide you through those hardest moments in life.
