My #1 Guest choice by a mile: Chuck Berry
Posted by: goodvibe61 ()

I understand a big reason they have younger artists come out on stage with them is to make them more accessible to young fans. I get that. I even get the whole pop star element of it (personally I can do without it).

But if I could have my choice of ANYONE coming out there to play with them, my choice would be Chuck.

i imagine what it would have been like to see Howlin' Wolf with the Stones. Bo Diddley. John Lee Hooker. Muddy. Those would have been incredible.

I would have loved seeing Tom Waits the other night, that's about as close to bliss as I could imagine. Jack White would be good, but the generation gap there is too big for it to be that big a deal to me.

Well, Chuck is still around. He's a major part of the Stones' legacy. There's a great deal of history there. A GREAT deal in fact.

To me, it would be a genuine thrill if Chuck Berry walked out onstage to play with the Rolling Stones. That would part a charge into me for sure. Can you imagine Little Queenie, Carol, my god that would be like time standing still!

thumbs up on that. even if he played terrible and they came to blows on stage (both possibilities) he would be the most worthy and fitting guest they could have.

If I could have my choice of anyone coming out there to play with them, I would pick Erwan Nijhoff.

Can you imagine Chuck stopping Little Queenie after a few bars, making wild gestures with his arms indicating that the drummer hit the wrong beat? And then once more because a spotlight is pointed so that he can't see the audiance? That would be a laugh.

No really, I love him. I've seen him some years ago and it was good fun in every way.

Chuck was a perfectionist and we love that...but if he attempts to stop a song none of the Stones will notice...did you hear Little Red Rooster with Waits?

That stopped and started somewhere around 12 times...nobody knew where the hell they were...

Actually I think they should do Carol.

"If you're gonna play it then play it right..."

Could be great.

I love CB.
His playing and his legacy is brilliant.
But, in truth, he's not a nice guy.

i think they learned after she's so cold at wembley that if you close your eyes and just keep playing sooner or later the song will end and 90% of the audience won't notice or care...

I was a babe magnet.

reminds me of a remark from carolyn wonderland (fabulous local gal done good)...she's intro'ing a new song..."I hope you like it, but if you don't it's ok, it's not very long." the stones should employ this intro for the two new songs.

I agree with the sentiment to have Chuck Berry come out on stage, but to have him actually play anything?
Hmmmmm....I wish he could.

A nice visual experience for the romantics, who are also 100% assured of major disappointment. I prefer a classic rocker who can add value - like Tom Petty or John Mellencamp or frequent Stones coverer Lindsey Buckingham.

Actually: JANELLE MONAE over all of the above.

I love Chuck Berry, have seen him many times over the years and am eternally grateful for his performances he has given us. I wanted to play guitar because of him and his musical progeny. I am very sad to say he simply cannot play anymore. I saw him not long ago at the Howard Theatre in DC with three other guitar player friends. As much as we love him and what he gave the world he has slowed down to the point of perhaps considering having his son, a gifted player/performer cover all the guitar parts as it is painful to hear. I mean no harm and have the utmost respect for him and his lovely family and wish them all the best. Now Eddie Vedder would be fun to hear on CYHMK!
