Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts has admitted their age has stopped them from doing big tours - and even said he'd be "quite happy" if they were to stop playing.
Watts said the band, who have a collective age of 278, tend to keep their tours shorter in comparison to when they were at their peak, blaming it on their "tender age". Referring to their current 14 on Fire tour, Watts told TheAustralian.com: "We've done half of this one already. This is short compared to what we've done before, but it needs to be, I think, at our tender age.
"The thought of doing 50 shows, which was normal at one time for us to sign off on, that is quite daunting. Now we're doing that in little bits. If we don't do any more I'll be quite happy with that."

Watts also revealed he had a fantastic time headlining Glastonbury in 2013, despite initially being unhappy with playing at the legendary festival. "That was wonderful, although you should have been there when I didn't like the idea of doing Glastonbury in all the mud and everything," he said.
"We had three weekends in England in July where we had fantastic weather and the crowds were great and I had a really good time in both places. I've got to learn to shut up about things. That's typical of me."
