Rolling Stones in Charlottesville?!?

[Cthulhu's Librarian]

My wife just got back from lunch where she overhear the head of UVA university events (at the ntable next to her) talking about "Rolling Stone" over and over. When she got back to her desk and checked the news headlines from the local paper, this is what she found:

Looks like the Rolling Stones are going to be coming to Charlottesville! Never thought that I'd be able to go see them less than 5 miles from my home.

I could go, but I hate the Rolling Stones. And Kelly hates the smell of pot.

Blashphemy! About the Stones, at least (I never did understand the allure of pot).

I saw them what, I guess sheesh, 15 year ago or so. I drove 200 miles to Miami with a friend.

I love the Stones, but the show they put on then was pretty awful. Just really really sloppy and no energy. Then, I thought they perhaps were over the hill. I can't imagine 15 years has helped. Probably worth going if they're close, but I would be afraid to pay a lot of money to see them (Back then it was only $20, a bargain by today's standards)

On the plus side it was somewhat amusing watching several ex-hippies have acid flashbacks during the lightshow for 2000 light years from home

But the big question: Will they go perform "Brown Sugar" at TJ's gravesite?
