    I just saw him in Freejack.  His finest work in my opinion :).

      Get the meat!

  • Brainspore

    Careful on those jagged crevices!

    He’s got the moves like Jagger!

  • wolfman_al2

    He used to climb rocks.
    Today he IS a rock!

  • rtresco

    In the screengrab shot before you hit play, he looks like he should be saying “Multi-pass”.

    I love early Stones, like 63-64, because Mick was still a punk, and you can see in this video he’s gonna be a punk. He’s shooting daggers at the guy.

    So he did use to not look like shit warmed over.

      Oh, like you’re gonna look any better when you turn 187.

  • Pope Ratzo

    How cool is it that I’m finally better looking than Mick Jagger?  See, time evens everything out, I guess.

    As the saying goes, “If you sit by the river long enough, you will see the body of your favorite rock stars float by”.

    • frankieboy

      how much time has to go by ’till you get as much, uh, play as he’s had?

    Also of interest: Young Davey Jones (aka Bowie) as the founder of The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Long-haired Men.

    Isn’t that Art Garfunkel behind him?

  • mikedt

    It’s amazing that he still has the hair of a 20yr old. That has to be a toupee.
