Crossword Genius

Covering Rolling Stones, perhaps getting on (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bandaging

'covering' is the definition.

'rolling stones perhaps getting on' is the wordplay.
'rolling stones perhaps' becomes 'band' (The Rolling Stones are an example).
'getting on' becomes 'aging' (I've seen this before).
'band'+'aging'='BANDAGING'

(Other definitions for bandaging that I've seen before include "holding together" , "some first aid" , "Providing cover" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
