Sympathy for the Marketing

In anticipation and start somewhere , say that after fifty years of similar gestures and Jagger strutting on stage, only to revive the idea is much closer to boredom to excitement .

If to this is added Scorsese 's documentary about the Stones is - as it can not be otherwise - a documentary "author " , and enter the realm of the absolutely predictable. Beginning with its first ten to fifteen minute , a new sample of very particular histrionics of its director is attending (must be all that will not diminish this man with age) to the point that , for a moment, it is not known if the title of the document is English or group Scorsese himself . However, the narcissist is reserved apotheosis ( what better way to finish the show ? ) For his "brilliant " conclusion. The seal of the house from start to finish . However , it is also recognized that in relation to the conduct in general, the packaging industry , with large staff of highly qualified technicians , as well as its effective staging . Framing, camera movement, etc. , at times simple correction is improved.

Special mention other concessions : what the little speech of Bill Clinton ( the theater seemed to become parish) and Christina Aguilera squeaky paint on stage , even if it was only five minutes per head? As a result , we are impossible to ignore that in USA- not surprising that the public or four inches on its body axis and the first row is taken over by twenties as guapitas as sosonas not wag . Formulas television studio and election campaign. All very calculated and content. Pure marketing.

The musical section not just reserve some surprises . Guess who did not know in person the first time the legendary group - '60 - '70 - or those who have not reached the quarantine can watch the show more leniently because of lack of time perspective . In part , I regret not being able to fit this group and refer , in short, at the beginning of the review . The rollingstoniana performance for the same elapsed time , and out of respect for age and stubbornly apañadita leave her . With its ups and downs and qualitative decibélicos ( here always personal tastes included) : fast followed by another topic rather slow . Among the latter is appreciated the inclusion of " As Tears Go By" . Jagger announces recognizing that a long time since I played " shame " . It is worth to hear one of the most inspired lyrics, a poetic recitation , his musical beginnings. To dare to " Sympathy for the Devil" , but this only leads us to remember that we are many miles , and almost more years of Altamont .

Also review the positive side , the inclusion of brief outages old videos on the group file ( performances and interviews ) , some rather curious. And note that the only thing holding up the weight of the instrument and is good-natured drummer . Still the same humble guy always. Charlie : time is on your side . Pity not count for this occasion with another genius in the shade , bassist Bill Wyman.
