STONES GET MOSSED!
October 1, 1978
Lotsa people have had lotsa stuff to say about the Rolling Stones since the band's origin sometime around the dawn of the Industrial Devolution. Teen magazine alternately flash-drool and cross their legs over them, while teen mags for big kids, one of which is even named after the band (Bait & Tackle) examine their every twitch and sniffle for evidence of rumors. Even Sunday supplements run stories like "Mick And Bianca—The New Ernest And Ethel?," and it's whispered in publishing circles that Sadat barely nosed out Charlie Watts as Time magazine's Man Of The Year. Even Ed Sullivan once called Mick "handsome" on the air. (Of course, old Ed liked to flash aquariums too.)
