Scorsese's new concert film on The Rolling Stones is about thirty years too late. That is how long it has been since the geriatric group has been relevant in music. Never acclaimed for the greatness of their albums, their singles ability dried up around 1981. Since that year, their music has been about as successful as Mick Jagger's solo efforts. Not very, in other words. Some would say that John Lennon's musical efforts have not been very successful since 1981 either. Oh wait a second, John Lennon has been dead for that entire span of time.

Thanks to the pathetic baby boom generation, we continue to be subjected to their sustained mediocrity.
