Page Two THE MICHIGAN DAILY Saturday, July 15, 1972 Gathering moss at Cobo , By BILL LEAVITT A fantastic number of guards and police surround Cobo Hall before the Roling Stones con- cert, giving it the apeparance of the set of "The Longest D a y" during lunch break. I approach one guard and ask him if Patton really did slap that soldier, or if it was just a George C. Scott ad lib. He looks puzzled, then says "Move on," which I interpret as a sign us. He toys with the grip of his of secret communication between night stick, which I intepret TV & Stereo Rentals $10.00 per month NO DEPOSIT FREE DELIVERY, PICK UP AND SERVICE CALL: NEAC TV RENTALS 662-5671 as a sign that I should move on. I read that the Rolling Stones have perSonal guards. Guards for the Stones. That knowledge gives me an uneasy feeling in the pit of my stomach, much the came as realizing that Beaver Cleav- er knew naughty words. The crowd is somewhat sur- prising, appearing more 1ii k e they have come to see Ike and Tine Turner or even Vic Da- mone, rather than the Rolling Stones. But, the thought occurs to me that I decided to dress up for the occasion and put on a clean work shirt. Still, I think it must be the wrong concert untilea group of bloodshot eyes passes. One guy is tryig to peddle "marijuana pills" - he must be here for the Vic Damone crowd. On the way to my zeat I pass a guy in a pair of no-scuffs with a date in capri pants. For some reason I have the desire to ask him if he beat up Glen Ford in "Blackbsoard Jungle." I let the urge pass for I see anothler interesting couple, the usual blonde guy in the body shirt U. of M.

I consider asking him where all the fish go at night, but I decide against it. After careful deliberation I realize that someone is in my seat. "I think you are in my seat." "Far out." He extends his arm and we wrestle for a handshake, I pushing for the traditional grip and he fighting for the poisular "concert clasp." We compromise with our fingers and thumbs randomly sprawled. For a while I wonder why I have just shaken hands with someone I don't know, someone, in fact, who is sitting in my seat. After making a mental note that at my next opportunity to shake hands with someone I know, I will refuse to shake, I decide upon another plan of at- tack with this fellow, mention- ing death, permanent injury, and the rather unfriendly looking guard about ten feet away. My intentions are very clear at this time, and after another attempt at a handshake and some heart-rending goodbyes, he leaves. On stage, some guy is shoving a microphone around.

"I hear that Mick Taylor has beautiful hair," I say to my companion, loud enough to pick up a few glances of awe. I as- sume that knowing the name of at least one Rolling Stones gui- tarist is enough for even a few looks of adultation, and I await the reaction of my new fans. "Far out," says a girl in front of me, who doesn't even look old enough to rate records on "Am- erican Bandstand." I look around for a few more admirers.

University 663-7151 after looking at his date, I de- cide that I will bring bubble gum to my first concert too. On stage, the same guy is dragigng a microphone around, and not being too careful. That familiar concert aroma of sweat, marijuana, and deodor- ant, with the deodorant running a weak third, reaches my nose. Perhaps the smell is more pro- nounced by the fact that the peo- ple next to me either do not be- lieve in the redeeming values of soap and water or are very ser- iously cultivating some armpit disease. I consider briefly the possib- ilities of convincing the blonde guy in the body shirt that these people have not showered before entering the pool, and after shov- ing a whistle and a megaphone in his hand, telling him to throw them out before the pool man- ages returns. Instead I mention to these people the importance of never aiding a foreign power and al- ways rem iing downind. That same guy' is pulling a microphone chord, and not car- ing about the equipment. I am glad I came to this con- cert. As usual, the crowd is in- teresting and the music is good. Wild horses couldn't drag me away. Wild Horses? And it is then that I realr e that the guy on stage is Mick Jagger. The Michigan Daily, edited and man- aged by students at the university of Michigan. News phone: 764-0562.
