Did you watch the 121212 Concert last night? I freaking loved it. I love rock and roll!
Listen to Bruce singing about taking care of his own while reading 🙂
I was born and raised in New Jersey, and I still live in New Jersey. I could be doing commercials for New Jersey. I live 45 minutes from NYC, where I can see a Broadway show, an opera at the Met, or eat the best pizza on the PLANET. I live 60 minutes from the Jersey Shore, where the beaches rival any beach in the world. I live in the mountains, the Appalachian Trail runs through my town. Where else in the world can you say that about a place?
My beautiful world was devastated by Hurricane Sandy. I can feel the devastation in my soul, I’m so integrally a part of this amazing state. My beloved Jersey Shore was hit hard. Last nights concert featured the Jersey Boys, Bruce Springsteen and Jon Bon Jovi, and lots of other amazing musicians that I grew up with. And Roger Daltry! Major crush.

I grew up in the 60’s and 70’s. With rock and roll. I grew up with the Rolling Stones, I grew up with Billy Joel, I grew up with Bruce Springsteen, I grew up with Jon Bon Jovi. These guys are aging folks. HD is no friend to them. You know what though? They are still rocking and rolling! The Rolling Stones are on TOUR! I don’t know if I could have that kind of energy in my 60’s and 70’s. I barely have it in my 50’s, I had to record the concert last night and watch the ending this morning!
Where am I going with this? What are YOU doing? Do you think you’re too old for something? Do you think that life is passing you by? Get up and get moving my friend! If Mick Jagger can move like Jagger, so can you. Take that salsa class you’ve been wanting to take. Spend some time on meetup.com and find some like-minded people, and join a group. Think about Mick running around that stage last night when you hesitate before you do something, if he’s not too old to rock and roll, you’re not too old to start that business you’ve been thinking about.
What are YOUR Jagger moves? I want to hear all about them! Comment below and tell me. Me? I’ve got all kinds of surprises in store for you all in 2013. Stay tuned!
Ah and for my college friends, check out Mick’s moves. (I’m pretty sure we did it better.) Shadoobie!
Mick Jaggar trains like an elite athlete! I read somewhere that during a typical concert he covers several miles on stage. And he’s in his 70’s! Gotta love that. My Jagger moves are power yoga and running on a treadmill or track. I shoot for 5 days per week with 2 days of rest. When I fall off my routine I feel depressed and irritable, but when I’m disciplined I feel great. Like Jaggar 😉
I’ve never tried power yoga, I should look into that! And I’m a spinner more than a runner, but I need a Jagger kick in the butt these days. Your schedule is inspiring me!
Great post Karen!!! And yes…I’m sure we did it soooo much better! LOL
I think we totally did. Just ask Lori and Mare! xoxo
Aw, I felt all nostalgic reading that. Love all that music.
Me too Joyce! Maybe we need to add some music to our mastermind!
to Mick ” I’ve got this great song” Mick asked him “What song?”, Keith said ” Angie, Angie … ” and promptly lay down on a couch fast aseelp. Mick then finished the song with only those two words !
