      "Shining Light"

      It was a fulfilling weekend, and it contained many mixed emotions together, so it had to have a good ending.
      So, I chose a rock documentary about two Rolling Stones performances in 2006.

      A group of old poles, looking like a drug overdose, they swayed on the stage, shining like that.
      In the gorgeous theater, Clinton gave the opening speech for them. Many excellent musicians competed with each other. Keith with black eyes was smoking while playing the piano, and Mick was...

      Listen to Rolling Stones for a lifetime, watch Shine a Light for a lifetime,

      I liked QUEEN, NIRVANA, GREEN DAY, and even BLUR, OASIS when I was in junior high school and high school,
      but as I grew up,
      ROLLING STONES' music gradually occupied the dominant position of rock music in my heart.

      The age of 60+ can't hide that rock . And the deep wrinkles of the burning heart
      can't cover up the glamorous face
      , the hoarse guttural voice of the vicissitudes can't cover up the shocking touch
      , and the guitar that no longer squeaks can't cover...

      The volume of the cinema is always not enough. The audience under the stage is too young~

      There was no such movie in the original plan. I just heard that BUDDY GUY had a shot. So I dragged people to watch it.
      As expected, when I saw the black and white speckled piano, it was naturally HIGH.
      Although The firepower is not fully turned on, and for some reason, the distortion is not very large this time. Without the iconic guitar sound of Buddy Guy. In addition, the music played by MUDDY WATERS. And there is no eye-catching SOLO, I have to say that it is a little sad.
      But...

      miss no loss

      The documentary directed by Martin Scorsese, HKIFF had the last show, I thought, this film should be in the main stage, so I didn't book tickets. But now it's only shown in one or two theaters.

      However, even if you are The Rolling Stones Fans, I can also tell you that there is no loss if you miss out! If you are not a Rolling Stones fan (like me), don't waste your precious time!

      "Shine a Light", when I read the introduction, it said that it mainly revolves around two...

      Free and easy regardless of age

      After winning the Oscar for "The Departed", Martin Sicosese seemed to relax all of a sudden after resentment. The band shone a bright light to us together, full of aura and shocking. When I watched a few old men on the stage full of energy, I couldn't help shouting Niu B and dancing along with them.
          I'm not a fan of the Rolling Stones, I've only heard a few of their famous songs sporadically, and also know a thing or two about their anecdotes. However, the best thing about a great band...

      WX To be honest, I didn't expect too much when I received this disc, but after watching it, I was still moved. These four old demons are so cute. The scenes of Martin's music show that I can't stop laughing don't need to go into details. I'm used to watching bootleg. In the live video, I saw this disc and it was like seeing something Mike, although the tension of the voice is no longer unbearable, he still tried his best to dream dance moves, Keith is...

    • Mick Jagger: This is a real old song. That we're going to do for you now. It was one of the first we'd ever written. In fact, it was so old that we never did it. We gave it to someone else; because, we were kind like slightly, slightly embarrassed about it the first time we wrote it.
