Sir Mick Jagger

Front man genius entertainer with The Rolling Stones

Sir Mick Jagger, the legendary frontman of the iconic rock band, The Rolling Stones! This evergreen rock 'n' roll superstar has truly stood the test of time, continuing to command the stage with his electrifying performances, even as he celebrates his 80th year on this planet. It's incredible to think that he's not just a rock legend, but also a proud father to an equally impressive brood of eight talented children.

These kids have been born into a life less ordinary, with a dad who's not just a rock icon, but also a man who's been knighted for his contributions to music. Can you imagine the bedtime stories they must have heard? The tales of the road, the music legends they've met, and the secrets behind some of the greatest hits of all time!

But it's not just about the glitz and the glamour; it's about the unbridled energy and passion that Mick has brought to the stage for decades. At 80, he's still strutting and swaggering like a man half his age, leaving audiences around the world absolutely spellbound. It's as if Father Time has had a bit of a tiff with him, and Mick came out the clear winner, refusing to slow down. This charismatic Rock legend has more stamina than a Duracell bunny on a sugar rush, and his stage presence is nothing short of phenomenal. His distinctive voice, those iconic dance moves, and that inimitable energy have made him the poster boy for rock 'n' roll vitality.

Sir Mick Jagger isn't just a rock star; he's an inspiration, a living legend who proves that age is just a state of mind. With his eight kids and a career that's seen more highs than a mountain range, he's a reminder that life is about embracing every moment, every beat, and never, ever stopping the music. I have seen Mick and the stones live many times since the 1970's and every time, all you need to hear, is that opening riff from Keith to know subconsciously, you are in for a good time.

Keep on rolling, Mick!
