Just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you SHOULD do something. Thought they looked bad and sounded even worse. Needed grease for their slow swiveling joints and voices were so bad that if Simon were to have heard them for the first time he would have said that they sounded like his Uncle Herman. Just goes to show you that a lot of money makes for an Emperor's clothes kind of mentality in terms of displaying something that should not be displayed. Anybody agree with me????

The Stones
 Absolutely! Old or not, they still have what it takes in my opinion! I can if you can still sell out a concert, go for it!

Probably still jumping around because he is still full of drugs from the early days.
I'm sorry, but that guy it just plain homely. Not all that talented in my opinion, but music is a personal taste and lots of people like the Stones.

The stones are and forever will be legends. The little girls on here are too busy buying Jessica Simpson and Brittany music.

Stones who's next Aretha? sm
You generation X people just don't get it. The Stones were essential in elevating music, what ever you like as it is today; we were there and we fought for it and beatles and stones were with us. I guess you did not like the Queen of Soul either, to fat, what? She was the FIRST woman ever inducted into the Rock and Roll Music Hall of fame. You young people are so obsessed with looks. I guarantee you looks will fade and that includes yours. It starts at 35. Even though you think you will never age, you reach your peak at 30 and then at 35 you start dying if you are narrow minded.
Throwing stones...
I would like to point out that you are asking people to delineate their experience on their resume, and that is not the function of a resume. Recent experience and future objectives should be discussed in a cover letter. A resume is more or less a reference guide of your work experience. Your deciphering of one should come with your experience in hiring MTs; what companies they have worked for and what educational programs they have attended should illuminate to you what they've done in the past.
1. If a company runs an ad looking for MTs and puts "competitive line rate" for compensation, or only asks for 2 years experience for acute Basic-4, expect a resume from everyone who graduated from XYZ "Typier" School in Whittier, Wisconsin. It's obvious you don't know what you want.
2. If you set an MT up for testing, expecting them to follow abbreviated, slapped-together instructions by e-mail without a telephone alert it was on its way, don't expect the test back in 20 minutes. Legitimately timed testing is NOT done this way.
3. For those of you who use online tests from third parties, I encourage you to go and take your own test. It will be very educational at the very least with regard to what you are spending your money for, which is not much.
4. Still on the subject of testing: Give legitimate examples of the work the MT is going to be expected to do, and not the "cherries." If you have 50% or more ESL, you might want to pick out some of your more difficult dictators to provide as examples of what your company has to offer in terms of work being done for a production-based pay scale.
5. Be prepared to answer questions about how you count your lines, and know that any MT worth their salt is going to want to compare your line count of their test with what the MT can count on their own.
6. Don't tell people to expect a call from you, not call and then call, expecting them to drop everything to accommodate you. They are looking for work, not begging for scraps.
7. Finally (for now), do not do a "bait and switch." If someone applies with you because you offered a particular specialty, or work type, a line rate "based on experience," a definite schedule, etc., and you decide later that's not the case...shame on you.
Anyone seeing the Rolling Stones on tour?
I've always wanted to see 'em in concert - can't believe they are all in their 60s....but Mick Jagger still knows how to shake it!
