Sweet Neo-Con

On the soon to be released Rolling Stones album there's a politically tinged song titled "Sweet Neo-Con". It's quite critical of some recent U.S. foreign policy moves.

CNN Story with video interview

Will Sir Mick and the boys be "Dixie Chicked" as the vast right wing conspiracy get their Ya-Yas out, or will the legions of still smoking 50-65 years olds rush to Give 'Em Shelter?

Should we call this the "Dead Men Walking" tour?

That's a good point. However, IMO the Stones peaked in the Beggar's Banquet/Let it Bleed/Sticy Fingers/Exile on Main Street era. Everything after that is vanilla rock and roll (or disco for a short period). There's no doubting they are a great rock and roll band but getting better? Sorry. Lastly ole Mick lost his voice long ago; he no longer sings but shouts and talks with the music but you gotta love the energy.
