The Stones' "Spinal Tap Moments" (according to Ronnie)

and here's one from Keith...

KEITH RICHARDS of the Rolling Stones

When I recorded Talk Is Cheap [Richards’ 1988 solo debut], we shot a video in Los Angeles. The script called for a couple of tramps with dogs. The director felt a tramp should have a dog that was not only ugly or dirty but also weird or, at the very least, disfigured. His assistant suggested a lame dog. They called up some agency and the word came back: “We can get you a lame dog by noon. Which leg would you want missing?” These people were prepared to maim a dog for the sake of a @#$%&’ video. I tell you, man, L.A. is one sick town.



IORR............but I like it!

Ronnie also tells a story about the time they left the backstage area and headed for the main stage but couldn't find it. Seems they got lost trying to find it.

Please correct me if I got this story wrong.

Do ya think Keith really thought they would go maim a dog? As if they didn't have any around already missing a leg.

I did see Mick poke some dog in the nards with a stick once during Street Fighting Man.

Sure it wasn't Ronnie he was poking?

This also happened to the first 20 people trying to get into the Stockholm Cirkus in '03 - all following each other, we ended up in a broom closet while the line behind us found the right door and got spots in front of us at the stage!
