It has a 2 pages report ("Sons D'Age") asking 33 French groups about their roots. First question: To what music did you listen when you was young? - 16 name (among others) the Rolling Stones, the Beatles are named only 7 times... Second question: Which musicians do you find important nowadays? - Only four groups (Bad Losers, Dogs, Jet Boys, Telephone) name the Stones but 11 name Prince. Third question: To which music do you listen to nowadays? - 8 bands still like the Stones (Bad Losers, Baroque, Bordello, Ticket, Dogs, Satanic Majesties, Le Baron, GPS) - a good occasion to call your attention to two excellent French rock groups, the Dogs and the Bad Losers. There is also a large photo of Keith!

Mick: "I've always changed nappies for other people's children as well as my own." - "When you have a young baby it's bound to change your lifestyle if you want to see the child. And I do."

Ronnie: "I'd stay up all night, then sleep all day. I could see myself getting more and more distant from the kids... I started to realise how badly I was letting my family down when Jo said to me one day: I'm getting so fed up with all this that if you don't see a doctor I'll leave."
