Despite Losing His Father, Mick Jagger Continues To Tour
By Brendan Butler: 2006-11-13 00:00:00
Performers often recite the cliché “the show must go on” and sometimes they really mean it. The most recent case-in-point involves the death of Mick Jagger’s 93 year-old father Joe Jagger this past Saturday in Britain. And although it's the kind of thing that makes a grown man cry, the Stones continued their show in Las Vegas that night. As MSNBC reports, The Stones are on their A Bigger Bang tour and a spokesperson said that the shows will go ahead as planned. Mick flew to Britain for one last visit with his father on Friday, and then flew back to Las Vegas later that day. The spokesperson also relayed that details on Joe’s death and all funeral arrangements will remain private, and the Jagger family would make no further comments. The Rolling Stones front man/rock legend is handling his loss with class and dignity. He’s probably continuing with his tour dates because he knows that’s what his dad would have wanted. Keep in mind, he is now an orphan, as his mother Eva died in 2000, so this should be an especially emotional tour for him. Hopefully the latest news won't impede on them too dramatically, so Mick can go on kicking ass, as always.
