"Well this could be the last time
This could be the last time
Maybe the last time
I don't know. oh no. oh no"

The Rolling Stones mean a lot to me in umpteen ways. They provided the music, beautiful & raunchy rock/blues, that formed the soundtrack to much of my life experiences - the good, the bad and the just plain naughty. They've always been "my boys" - and Mick my poster boy/man - since the late 1960s.
Goodness. Really? Yes, early 1960. It's weird to write or think about that. So many of the people I know right now weren't even born then - hell, some of their parents probably weren't even born then!

I've just successfully bought a ticket - 1 ticket - to see my boys on March 25 next year. Yes, I'm going solo - alone - by myself. The ticket prices are extortionate, over $500 per ticket for the good seats, and George refused to go with me at those prices. I don't really mind because once the concert starts I'll be dancing like crazy anyway.
As the song says, "this could be the last time" to see them in concert. I honestly don't remember how many times I've seen them over the years. The first time Jae, me and a car load of hippies drove all the way to Tuscaloosa, Alabama. The date was June 28, 1972. Since then I was lucky enough to see them every time they came to Atlanta - the most memorable concert was at the Fox Theatre where I had 3rd row seats! The last time they were in Sydney - April 2006 - was a terrific show and I truly thought that time would be the last.
Now there's one more time. The ticket was stupidly expensive but I would have probably paid more. That's how much being with them, dancing with them - live - one more time means to me.
