beatles vs rolling stones

I saw a great clip on YouTube today in which you can compare the styles of the Beatles and the Rolling Stones as they play the same song, 'I Wanna Be Your Man'. Apparently, as Ringo says, the Beatles literally finished the song as the Rolling Stones were standing by to record it for themselves. Boy, they were on different drugs is all I can say.  The speed-driven Beatles playing it much faster against what looks like a British flag masquerading as a plane back drop.  The Stones jerking around in a more groovy way, with lurking blues riffs bouncing off the guitar tones.  But what I really want to know is what kind of underpants they were all wearing?
