Mick has thrown down the gauntlet - next year's tour is going to be as much (or more) about him than anything else - he owns the moment - hard to imagine that part of this is not one great big f-you to Keith for writing that book (which, according to an incredibly well-placed source tells me caused more static than anyone ever imagined and continues to cause problems)- Jagger knows they'll still tour - but on his terms - with him calling the primary shots, no doubt. Props to the Foos for placing ego aside and doing some seriously nice work with Mick -
It's Mick Jagger's world. The rest of 'em now just live in it.

How is that any different than any time since the mid-1980's? From what I can tell, since that time it's been exactly as you described above (minus the book references, obviously). I'D SAY IT'S HEIGHTENED MORE THAN EVER NOW - THERE IS MORE AT STAKE AS THIS IS CLEARLY THE LAST BIG RUN FOR THE BAND AND MICK WILL PROBABLY BE WHAT MOST PEOPE REMEMBER AFTER NEXT YEAR
Also, why would the Foos have to place ego aside to work with Mick? Are you insinuating that your sources have told you that they had their egos bruised by having to work with Mick? NO - MY POINT WAS, THEY ARE A MEGA BAND PLAYING BACK UP - THAT'S ALL - JUST MY OPINION BASED ON NOTHING FROM ANYONE - I LIKE THAT A BAND THAT BIG CAN TAKE A BACK SEAT TO A LEGEND - NOT ALL OF THEM WOULD DO THAT
Peace,
Mr DJA

"out of it" is better IMO.
Meet the new Stones. Same as the old Stones.Why would next year be even bigger and more important. Because it's the last time? I don't think Charlie really cares how big it is. Ronnie will have his part in it. Keith will be Keith as always. Liek Mr Dja said. This has been the state of the Stones for decades. A farewell tour won't change that.Quote

What I gather HB is saying is it's REALLY gonna be on Mick's shoulders more so than ever. This is to be the last time...and it's on Mick's dime. On Mick's time. On Mick's songline. Keith is only a player, if that.

Keith once said, "I'm just a side man", well...

i'm telling ya - and don't think that book LIFE hasn't resulted in a bit of knife twisting from Mick - that's what I believe, anyway, based on what I have heard from someone on Keith's side - in Keith's camp - on how much that book got under Mick's skin - a man whose skin was thought to be impenetrable

Of course Life caused static. No surprise that it continues.......
Props to the Foos for placing egos aside? They should be honored to share the stage with Mick.
