Stevie will rollerskate her hula dance during Dreams. I actually think she stopped doing the hula. The only dancing now is the crackhead dance.
The Gypsy twirls might as well be done on an office desk chair
First of all, you can no longer even call them twirls. They haven't been twirls in almost 20 years. And to be fair to Stevie, she's into her 70's and I refuse to make fun of an old woman who can't twirl around on stage like she did in years past. That's just life. What I WILL make fun of, is her insistence on continuing to do this. It's pure insanity. She looks like she's stumbling on an icy surface, trying to step in a circle in some haphazard way to maintain her upright position. Not being able to do it anymore isn't sad, continuing to think you can and should do it, that is sad.

I think the last GREAT twirls were 2005. I would say that Cher still does some decent choreography and can run on stage for Turn Back Time and Believe. Debbie Harry is a great dancer still and does impressive footwork in heels.

And Jagger can do it all because he wears Nikes Watching him during JJFlash and Rambler is something else. Bless that man.

I saw her in 2009 and the twirls were very good. I guess at that age there may be better or worse performances. It's an undeniable truth. I agree that's just life. In 2014 at NJ her GDW was great, though I don't remember any twirl that night. Anyway, I agree she shouldn't insist to do things that may result very very bad.

Jagger is in a league of his own. His commitment to staying in shape as he aged over the last 30-40 years is awe inspiring. Watching him run from side to side 5 years ago at Heinz Field you just sit in awe that this man is the age that he is and able to do what he does. Beyond disappointed that the 2020 tour was canceled but I hope that the boys figure out a way to tour still in a year or two.
