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.
多年來我參加過許多令我印象深刻的音樂會。很少有音樂會能像滾石(The Rolling Stones)的「50 & Counting」這麼令人開心，這場滾石的50週年紀念演唱會正在倫敦、新澤西和紐約進行巡迴演出。毋庸贅言滾石團隊的永恆魅力以及他們純熟而詼諧的颱風——演唱《（我無法）滿足》((I Can't Get No) Satisfaction)這類歌曲的舞臺被裝飾得形如米克•傑格(Mick Jagger)的大嘴，最令我開心和（不那麼嫺熟地）起舞的是看到六七十歲的老人扭動臀部，唱著搖滾。
