Poll question: Rod Stewart

Yes I know I didn't cover all possibilities, nor put on Other. Also some of these aren't mutually exclusive. However, the ever-popular Reply function still operates, and very well by all accounts.:)

1. I give him credit for doing an album of standards

and not trying to act like he is still a kid like some of his contemporaries.

[Floogeldy]

5. Which contemporaries?

B-)

[Lannes]

7. Mick Jagger for one

[Floogeldy]

8. Mick Jagger acts like a kid?

In what way?

B-)

[Lannes]

9. Buy a ticket to one of his shows

:)

[Atlas Mugged]

22. I already have bought tickets

I'm 53 and I still act like a kid. I do - because I can.

[Lannes]

25. If he could still do it well I would agree with you but he cant.

[SweetLeftFoot]

2. Is

a fine example of a misgynistic old prick abandoning all his responsibilities once he's shot his load.

3. Other

old

[ugarte]

4. I know he had a bout with throat cancer and I'm sorry

but he really can't sing anymore.

[Kenneth ken]

6. other other

I like him fine, but apparently only up to shortly after the Faces period, since I stopped paying attention to anything he did after Tonight's The Night (or whatever that album was called.)

I don't know if he should have retired; I'm told he still puts on a good show. :shrug:

[Bossy Monkey]

10. Embarrassed to admit that I know what that album's called 'cause I bought

it at the time. (Big Renoir fan, that's it. That's the ticket!) A Night on the Town.

I'm pretty much with you; he's been pretty easy to ignore for decades, though I did like one of his discoish numbers somewhat, Young Turks.

[Kenneth ken]

11. yeah

that's it. I had it too, when it was new. I knew there was a "Night" in the title, but I also pretty much knew my guess was one of the songs, rather than the title.

thanks :thumbsup:

12. I am SO going to hell if I add "Please specify number of ounces in the

version you heard" to Option 10, right?

[Kenneth ken]

14. dunno

but you'd probably liven the thread right up.

how many ounces in a gallon? Then I could answer :7

[WCGreen]

15. 128oz to the gallon

[WCGreen]

16. Cut Across Shorty and Mandolin Wind are two

of my all time favorite songs.....

[Kenneth ken]

17. 649 then

heck, I don't know, I'm making it up. But you heard it here first!

13. Still makes a living--not easy in Bush's world.

[intheflow]

18. What's the urban legend?

I heard one, but then I heard the same story with two other rock stars, so I'm just wondering if your detailed UL is the same as mine.

[Bossy Monkey]

20. Something to do with a stomach pump nt

[intheflow]

21. OK then!

Same UL!

:rofl: :puke:

[The Magistrate]

19. Should Never Have Started, Sir

And failing that, ought to have quit at the earliest opportunity. He is on my least favorites list, right up with Elton John and Bobby Goldsboro....

[bicentennial_baby]

23. Oh I so agree!!

I'm in good company, apparently, good sir! :hi:

[MissMillie]

24. I never thought he was anything special

Until I saw him in concert this past April. He puts on a really good show. Just about every song he sang I found myself saying, "I love this song!"

[johnnie]

26. Is a underrated songwriter

And he is just doing what he loves to do. I don't understand why people like to suggest that once a person is over 30 they should stop doing anything.

[Atlas Mugged]

27. Ageism is rampant on this and every other forum

[johnnie]

29. Just started a thread on it

I have seen that too.
