Start Me Up

For a recent audition, I was asked to comment on the video for the Rolling Stones' "Start Me Up":

I love you, Mick. But that outfit would make a grown man cry.


It is truly a sign of virility to be able to look butch in a skin-tight lavender v-neck t-shirt tucked into white sweatpants.

My eyes dilate
My lips are green
My hands are greasy
She's a mean, mean machine..."


Mick, I think that means you need to get tested for syph.

Hey, Mick?

Sweating WITH the oldies? Um, when you're trying to remain relevant at 70 or 80 (or however old you are now) to a younger and hipper crowd, it's never a good idea to be dressed like a gay tai chi instructor at their grandparents' nursing home, okay?

Yeah, yeah, I know it's only rock 'n roll and you like it. I don't mean to be all up in your cloud, or anything. But gimme shelter, dude! Please! Exile that get-up to a dumpster on Main Street, will ya? The bespoke Charlie Watts has the right idea. Wipe off your sticky fingers and put some goddamn clothes on.

And lest anyone think that the onset of dementia really has set in, don't even THINK about the clogs in Jen's other post.
