Time to Hang it Up

Now don't get me wrong, I like rock and roll music a lot. However, one of the things about rock celebrities, as with other Hollywood and other media celebrities, is that they are perpetual adolescents. And part of that infantalism is that they won't -- in fact, can't -- grow up. They need to be young, trendy, rebellious, etc. It's what they've based their careers on, and if they move on they run the risk that they won't be perceived as cool anymore. (There's also the real possibility that if they tried to do something different with their music it would become readily apparent that they didn't have any real talent to begin with.)

The point I'm trying to make is -- would someone please tell Mick Jagger he's not a teenager anymore. Gently break the news to him that he's not even young anymore -- he's an old man! For crying out loud, when is this fossil going to realize it's time to hang it up and move on!
