Note: Special Connection between Mick Jagger and the Tennessee Titans
What a beauty. What a natural and spontaneous complicity gesture. How fun it is to go to a concert and have the singer dedicate some excited words to the city where he is performing. It is one of the most deeply rooted traditions in the world of rock. And one of the most beautiful. And elegant, if I may. That and the simulation of encores, where no one asks for "another" anymore but the artists leave and come back for the sake of tradition. May it never be lacking.
Let this introductory paragraph serve to say that Mick Jagger, whom you may know as the singer of a band called Rolling Stones, had a special moment of connection and natural intimacy with those who went to see him in Nashville, Tennessee yesterday. He said, "LP Field, home of the old conquering Titans..." and after a long pause to increase the drama, he added, "Next year you will have Marcus". Ovation. How touching that he remembered good old Mariota.
It is true that I have read some characters, because they do not deserve any other name, say that he did not make a dramatic pause but instead rushed to ask again for the name of the guy he was referring to. Similarly, there are people who believe that they do this in every stadium they go to, like saying in San Diego that the Chargers are better there than in Los Angeles or talking about Jerry Jones in Arlington, Texas. Without a doubt, the people who say these things are cynical with very small souls.
As I still have an emotional heart, I leave you with the image that proves that Mick's feelings about Marcus are not only sincere, but also indicate that all the Rolling Stones believe that the Titans are going to have a great season, with an 8-8 record and one step away from the playoffs. Or at least that's what I understand, really.
