Here they're just being nasty to Brian. His contributions may have been very limited, but they weren't meaningless.Quote
There's an exception, of course: Brian Jones contributed nothing meaningful to Let It Bleed, was too out of it to play his instruments anymore, even when he did try to turn up to sessions, and died long before the album was released. So it goes.

Wow, check the other new galleries too.

Vox Foundation Bass head, probably the one used throughout 1967 - 1968.
Fantastic! But I am actually shocked on how the stuff looks -it has been dumped there 35 years ago and never touched again. Look at the corrosion on those Ampegs!

As a member of the rolling stones fanclub you could log in to see your (membership-)details. Is it me that i can't find it on the new website? And what if there would be a new announcement of gigs, how could you get your passcode?

Very good news that Universal have taken control over the rs.com!
I guess the Stones must have listened to all the harsh comments about how Ultrastar ran the fan club. In the end they couldn't continue the way it was under the Ultrastar and Cohl-infected system.
So, raise your glasses and say FINALLY! Cheers.
And prepare for an announcement...
Use the search button here and see what they did in 2002 and 2005 before tour announcement! They closed down the site, and...
Please tell me you're not seriously suggesting that a tour announcement is imminent.
Gazza, we both know that a tour was in the planning, (start late 2010) but unfortunately, "things" got in the way. A lot of work's already been done regarding the logistics, arenas and even stage design, I believe. We've already discussed this in another thread, some months back, and I think I recall you writing that you too knew that a tour was being planned, that work had been done and that slthough they announced that there "will be no tour in 2010" they would not have to start planning a new tour from scratch... I could find the thread if I made a search.... Searched - and here it is: [www.iorr.org]
Er, quite true but its no longer 'imminent' - the timing of the re-design has more to do with a label change,the hype surrounding the Exile reissue and what will probably be subsequent archives projects.
I'm glad theyve dumped that atrocity of an Ultrastar site and this one (so far) looks to be an improvement, but nothing major is going to happen with regard to anything 'new' from the band for quite a while yet. Thats my point.
Ok, so we're glad Ultrastar and the crooks are out - and that the new site looks a lot better. I guess they listened to some of the critizism from people on this site, for instance. Everyone hated the scam Ultrastar was behind. I can't even imagine what kind of money they've practically stolen from us... This of course even made the Stones open their eyes to who they had hired to do the job. I know it's been discussed within the band sphere.
Anyway: I read Keith saying they're going to go out and play. "Yes, I've heard rumours!" But not this year. Since the Stones fiscal year starts in September - and therefore most of their touring activities also start in the beginning of September, so 2011 - September. Does that qualify as a qualified guess?

If I remember correctly, the memberships were renewed automatically (if your credit card was on file) during the first week of May.
I haven't heard anyone complaining yet about their credit card being charged.

I hope that they will finally make use of a black background. It looks best with pics and especially the tongue. I liked the old one, but it was too messy here and there (the archive pages really had issues). I hope they do the new one so logical that even a tosser like me would be able to find my way through all kinds of great videos and reads.

who she is and if she posed for this somewhere.
