What is your earliest sporting memory?
Dad took me to the Oval to watch England play Australia in the Ashes when I was about eight. I'm sure it was the match when Denis Compton made the winning runs.

Gazza..I thought for sure you'd look this up.
MJ said "When the Stones started happening I just didn't have the time so sport took a back seat for years. Most people know where they were when England won the World Cup in 1966, but I have no idea where I was or what I was doing. I could probably work it out if I tried, but I was just too busy with the band at the time."

Didnt even need to look THIS one up.
England won the World Cup on 30th July 1966 (the day after Bob Dylan fell off his motorcycle, trivia fans). The Stones finished their US tour (their last with Brian) two days earlier in Honolulu (28/7/66).
The band were still in the States, and probably on the west coast taking a short break as they started recording 'Between the Buttons' at RCA in Hollywood in early August.

I know that Mick envied Bowie and Iggi Pop which have traveled incognito all Russia
To him Soviets never gave permission to get in
Even in 90-th when already there was a perestroika Gorbachev hasn't get the Rolling Stones to Russia. Instead of them there have arrived Scorpions (remember this awful song - The Wind Of The Changes) and Stones have performed in Prague
If Mick doesn't lie he has simply forgotten. It once again confirms that his memory is awful

Finally! A completely candid and forthcoming interview from Mick. Makes a nice change.
