I love the Rolling Stones. Back in August of 2005, I waited 17 hours in line to get a ticket to see them play the Phoenix. It was well worth it. The memory of being so close to Mick and Keith is one that is still vivid in my mind. The Stones can do very little wrong in my book (except for maybe 3/4 of the “Dirty Work” album but nobody’s perfect), especially when in comes to concert flicks. The “Four Flicks” and “The Biggest Bang” DVD’s are the epitome of concert sets for the 21st Century. But now, for the first time since AT THE MAX in 1991, the Stones return to the big screen with the new movie “Shine A Light”. With Martin Scorsese directing the Stones in New York’s intimate Beacon Theatre, you just know this one is going to be good. The movie premiered in Berlin yesterday ahead of its release in theatres and IMAX this April and got rave reviews.

You can check out the trailer below, then let me know if you’ll be checking out “Shine A Light” when it hits screens.

Todays bonus word, good until midnight is: SHINE
