How does it feel for Mick Jagger to be back on tour singing, dancing and strutting across stadium concert stages at 80 years old?
"Like being on stage at 78," the Rolling Stones frontman, who has thrilled audiences for more than six decades, said a day after playing a packed show outside Boston.
"It took a couple of shows to get into the groove, but now we're into it," Jagger said. "I'm feeling good."
He sang What a drag it is getting old, back in the 1960s. But Jagger, who turns 81 on July 26, is still having a blast and has no plans to stop rocking anytime soon.
Now swinging through the US on the Hackney Diamonds tour, the group will look at opportunities to play in other countries next year, Jagger said in an interview.
"We'll consider those offers, where we're going to go and where it will be fun, you know?" he said. "It could be Europe, could be South America, could be anywhere."
Jagger also said the Stones are likely to release more new music soon.
The current tour is named for the critically praised album the Stones debuted last October, the first new material from the British rockers in 18 years.
At each stop, Jagger commands the stage for two hours with bandmates Keith Richards, 80, and Ronnie Wood, 77. Fans say Jagger still delivers a vigorous performance full of gyrating, stomping, sprinting and his world-famous swagger.
Where does he find such energy?
"I just enjoy it," Jagger said. "Really, that's the answer. I just love doing it.
"You get this back and forth with the audience. You can see they're having a good time, you're having a good time, and it gives you a lot more energy."
Jagger said he stays fit by doing two dance rehearsals and a few gym workouts each week. His father was a physical education teacher and Jagger has often credited his good health to genetics.
