I have attended many impressive concerts over the years. Few of them, however, have been as exhilarating as The Rolling Stones' “50 & Counting” show, which is now on tour (in London, New Jersey and New York City). Never mind the timeless appeal of their numbers, or their slick and witty staging (songs such as “(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction” were belted out on a stage shaped like a vast Mick Jagger-esque mouth). What really made me cheer and dance (badly) was the sight of men in their seventh and eighth decades of life wiggling their hips and rocking out.
多年来我参加过许多令我印象深刻的音乐会。很少有音乐会能像滚石(The Rolling Stones)的“50 & Counting”这么令人开心,这场滚石的50周年纪念演唱会正在伦敦、新泽西和纽约进行巡回演出。毋庸赘言滚石团队的永恒魅力以及他们纯熟而诙谐的台风——演唱《(我无法)满足》((I Can't Get No) Satisfaction)这类歌曲的舞台被装饰得形如米克•贾格尔(Mick Jagger)的大嘴,最令我开心和(不那么娴熟地)起舞的是看到六七十岁的老人扭动臀部,唱着摇滚。
