Just listened to the audio clip that BV posted. First of all I will say that this Markus Larsson had a great deal of guts to actually show up for this interview himself. Listening to him squirm and apologize profusely to Keith and tell him how good the show in Stockholm was is great. He has some guts. He may be a terrible writer,but it takes nerve knowing the subject you are interviewing hates your guts and doesn't know you are the subject of his wrath. For his part,Keith stays pretty cool. Once he finds out who this twerp is,he tells him what he thinks of him in a pretty calm,collected manor. The "Your lucky to get out here alive" is just Keith BS. Didn't sound like much of a scuffle to me. You can argue whether or not Keith has thin skin about a bad review. But people saying Keith is a thug or a punk or whatever because of what he did in this interview are just wrong. It's pretty clear he didn't hit the guy. If he did,you can bet the little pussy would have filed charges. In the end I think the whole think is actually much ado about nothing.

Markus Larsson was brought up on hardrock (heavy metal etc) and never listened to classic rock.
So why on earth does he interview Keith and report on their shows? I have just listened to professional Norwegian journalists who interview Keith in Paris with a heart and a soul and get close with him and they get lots of great talks and stories. Then I have seen this Markus Larsson crap interview and report which does not make sense. I would get more info about the Stones by talking to my dog. Is he some kind of celebrity in Sweden? And is this the only paper people read in Sweden? I just don't understand.

Incorrect.
The reporters got between 15 and 45 minutes. Those who got 30 minutes were in general those taking part in the round table interview, with from 6 to 9 people. Then there were a frw separate interviews. Varying from 20 to 45 minutes.
The 45 minute interview was with radio reporter and TV-host Bård Ose, who wrote a book in 1993(?) "30 years with The Rolling Stones".
(I have the complete list of press, interview schedule and how many minutes each reporter got to spend with KR)

It's great to see that you take time to answer to some member's question , and on the other hand, it's strange that you didn't take time to answer to the same question for some other member
Don't feel offensed, it's just not fair, that's all.
Now I got my answer, French JOURNALIST for sure didn't pay enough to get some footage
that's right ???

4. About your insults - please. Just go ahead. If it gives you joy and happiness, come on! "Don't Stop"!
Yeah the guy was so nervous you could almost literally hear him pissing his pants.Quote

what Keith was reacting to in this scenario was discovering he had been misadvised by his and his publishers' staff -
misled into treating this prat cordially, and then completely unexpectedly finding himself confronted by a jerk with an agenda
who was basically going "nyahh nyahh - fooled you!" (and practically pissing his pants at the same time)
and Keith stayed calm enough not to give the creep what he hoped for.

Mr Addict: Thanks for your (inside?) information, I stand corrected. I was just quoting Mr Larsson though. He said that his bit was intended to last 30 minutes but he only got 17. Can I make some comments about what's been said here and , maybe, straighten something out? 1. Markus didn't decide to go to Paris, his boss sent him there. 2. Markus never had something personal against Keith, he wasn't "after him" as Keith seems to believe. 3. The intention from Aftonbladet (as Markus tells in the "Schulman interview" was not to make war with Keith, on the contrary they wanted Markus to "make peace" with him, laugh about it and take a picture. It didn't turn out that way though... . 4. I, personally, think that keith has exaggerated this matter, perhaps he has been poorly informed by someone? I'm sure Mick would have just laughed about it... .

So Keiths plays a crappy show and a reviewer does his job and critiques it as lousy. So Keith... hits him. like a child. Did he take his lunch money too? This is not a man of class, wealth and taste... but of a spoiled baby.

A journalist union has made a couple of sharp statements on the subject though (they dont't accept violence or threats against any journalist).
