Mick leads supergroup for 2012 opener
THE greatest supergroup of all time is being lined up to play at the opening ceremony of the 2012 London Olympics.
It will also be the OLDEST.
Rolling Stone Mick Jagger wants his band to be joined on stage by David Bowie and Van Morrison and Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page.
It is also expected that Phil Collins, Elton John, Sting and Pink Floyd's Dave Gilmour will be approached.
In 2012 they'll have a combined age of 522!
As a long shot, both remaining Beatles, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, could also join the show. Paul would be 70 and Ringo 72. Jagger and the rest of the Stones have already held talks with Olympics bosses who are keen to outdo this year's Beijing opener.
A source close to the band explained: "Mick feels the Olympics coming to London is a huge honour-and wants to make his own gesture with the band.
"It's early stages but Page, Bowie and Morrison are already involved, although no one is quite sure yet how the show will play out in its entirety.
"The Olympics people hope to use the template of the American football Super Bowl half-time show, where an artist takes over the field on a giant stage.
"Having the Stones on side for a project like this is a huge deal."
