COOPER'S VOICE


Boxers or Briefs? Paper or Plastic? Mary Kate or Ashley? All of these are tough questions but here is the most difficult question of all time: THE BEATLES OR THE ROLLING STONES? Tough question because the Beatles pretty much started the rock and roll revolution, however, the stones may have perfected it.

One thing about the Beatles: They started out wearing suits and sang harmless songs like “she loves me yea yea” and girls were their primary fan base. They were essentially the original boy band. However, they gained credibility throughout the years. That’s like the Backstreet Boys somehow morphing into Led Zeppelin. That’s incredibly hard to do.
ADVANTAGE BEATLES

ROCK AND ROLL LIFESTYLE: I will have to give it to the stones. Keith Richards has done enough coke to kill entire nations of people, yet somehow still goes strong. Granted he looks like a morph between a bulimic chick and my left nut (wrinkles) but still he is ALIVE and that alone is amazing. The Beatles did drugs too, but they all stopped years ago and 50 percent of the band is still dead.
ADVANTAGE STONES

Lead singers: Jagger vs Lennon. (I realize that the Beatles kind of had numerous lead singers but I think we all think of Lennon as the front man) This is relatively easy. Lennon had Yoko Ono who pretty much destroyed the band and was a weird looking chick. Mick Jagger had super-model Jerry Hall and was still hooking up with all kinds of girls on the side. Jerry Hall just put up with it because “he was a rock star”. Awesome. Now there is the rumor that Jagger and slept with David Bowie. Now, no one knows if that is true, but if it were a proven fact, Jagger would fall in the dude ranks fast. But him and Richards did have their fair share of ladies.
ADVANTAGE STONES

GUITAR PLAYERS: Richards vs Harrison. George Harrison got really into the Hindu religion and stopped partying. Before that he was just 18 when the Beatles were huge. He was banned from several towns throughout Europe because he and Paul kept setting their hotel rooms on fire. So he did start out cool. Richards still gets wasted and falls out of coconut trees in Fiji and he is in his 70’s. Also, last time I checked Johnny Depp based Captain Jack Sparrow on Keith Richards, not George Harrison. Pirates are awesome and if George Harrison couldn’t be a pirate I don’t like him. Finally, “Beast of Burden” has a much manlier guitar riff than “Here comes the sun”. ADVANTAGE STONES.
CHAMPION=STONES
