Hope They Die, Before They Get Sold.

This is a picture of the Rolling Stones frontman arriving for his very first concert in China, Shanghai actually.
This is an article about them in an Asian newspaper.
Apparently they are not too bothered about being ordered to censor themselves.
Somehow I'd have hoped they wouldn't Kow Tow to Peking.

But apparently they will.
Now, if it was me, I'd open with 'Under Cover Of The Night'.
Then go on to Paint It Black. Then a cover version of the Who's "I'm Free", and a few more 'revolution' type songs fro the sixties.

We'll just have to wait and see.
But I don't hold out any hopes. Even our own people are probably putting pressure on them to conform.
