Mainly for Brits or anyone that can pick up ITV news .......... just noticed at the end of the ITV 6:30 pm news that the presenter announced that there will be a feature on Keith Richards' brain surgery/operation on the 10:30 pm news - today Tuesday 9th May.

There was an almost 3-4 minutes feature on danish TV2 about Keith and the possible cancelling of the consert in Horsens June 8.

They talked with lots of people about all the preparations, all the people that had prepared holydays for helping with the consert - they use lots of volentary people. There have also been made quite many arrangements fro the day, which now all is in doubt.....

The promoter, Frank Panduro, mentioned that Keith probably had drunk a quite strong juice crawling up into a palmtree......

They showed people crossing their fingers crossed hoping for the best and no cancelling of the consert.....

Later on tonight you will be able to see the news from 19.00 oc. on this link:

The ITN News report didnt indicate any great cause for alarm, thankfully.

They spoke to a neurosurgeon at the hospital and showed footage of Patti, Theo and Alex arriving at the hospital and some guitars being brought in.

The reporter said he had an op for a suspected clot on the brain and that the recuperation period would be "a few weeks".

The story wasnt all it was cracked up to be. In the 6.30 news they mentioned a report in the 10.30 bulletin on "Keith Richards Life Threatening Injury" but the actual report didnt really imply anything like that at all. Just before showing the report itself, the news reader even teased us with a "coming up - Keith Richards gives a defiant message to his fans", yet there was nothing of the sort.

Oh yeah. Weird that these kindda things always happen in threes or fours. Keith had the brain thing, Sanne Salomonsen (Danish female singer) had a blood clot (Dunno what it's called) and the same with Jesper Olsen (Former soccer player on the Danish national team).

...Speaking of happening in threes or fours like Kent does...
My baby gal, lovely daughter of 9 had surgery yesterday.
Dont think its connected though*. Went fine; shes jumpin the jumpboard and
gong to school.
* But a hell of a pressure with both family and the HouseGod of K.R.

Best wishes for Sanne; also a rock-goddess!
