because he quit the Stones 20 years ago, is 74 years old, has a family, a life and other interests to occupy his time?
the answer to the two questions you want to ask him, incidentally, are both 'yes'. The first one anyway for sure, and probably the second.
It's like Peter Frampton's facebook page - he's got half a million 'likes' on it and he actually posts on there once every few days. Cannot not believe some of the nuts on there. He had three days off on his tour and says 'don't call me, I'm tired' or something, and bunch of women come on and say 'can I just stop by then'. Of course, I'm one of the nuts because I ask him if I can run one of his Framptone talk boxes through a bass guitar. Strangely no reply from Pete...
You're correct. He's not.
I say we find this warehouse, break in, and liberate the '73 footage. SLA. Stones Libertaion Army.
seconded.. SLA!!
Finally, something we can all agree on.

Why isn't Bill Wyman on this board?

Listening to the great No expectations live recording from LA 1973 on Youtube I wondered why Bill Wyman is not on this board.He has always claimed that he appreciated to stay in touch with the fans, and he could answer many questions.
As the Stones' archivist he surely knows if there are soundboard recordings and movies of the early years, and he could tell us how they are preserved (even if the Stones are not willing to release them.
To me he seems the most interesting member to ask questions. If I were allowed to ask him just two quastions I would ask:
- Are there soundboard recordings of rarely played songs from 1972/73 like Ventilator blues, Torn & frayed, Sweet black angel, No expectations, Silver train, 100 years ago?
- Is the concert from Empire Wembley Pool, September 1973, whichw as filmed professionally, still in the Stones archives?
So, what would you like to ask Bill about the Stones' archive treasures if you had the opportunity? (Only serious questions, please).

Could you imagine the deluge of questions, requests, etc. if Bill were here ?
Could be that he lurks.

Bill collects about anything about his past with the Stones,is still great friends with all Stones, but he seems not genuinely interested in what is happening to the band nowadays. Bill sometimes talks about his past, but I have never heard him speaking about this board.

This is Bill Wyman, and I am very disappointed that more discussion has not happened on what are obviously the Rolling Stones' two best tracks: In Another Land and Downtown Suzie. Also, if anyone is in the market for a metal detector please e-mail me privately. I would especially enjoy hearing from females under the age of 20.
PS: Mick Taylor was a much better guitar player than Ron Wood. I should know.
Love...Bill

Better ask this question! Why isn't the Rolling Stones on this board anymore!
- Is the concert from Empire Wembley Pool, September 1973, whichw as filmed professionally, still in the Stones archives?

I don't buy that Bill is completely divorced from the Rolling Stones business entity. He may have things in his possession that they would prefer not be known so that they can market them later, such as recordings both audio and visual. If he took part in those recordings then he obviously stands to benefit from their sale at some future point. Conversely he doesn't have the legal right to release them on his own, so he doesn't benefit unless the group as a whole agrees to a release. At this point he's probably trying to figure out what will happen to his archives when he is gone. If he hadn't been prudent with his money, he might have been forced to sell a lot of them. And I'm sure we'll all intrigued as to what he actually possesses.

I'm very intrigued by Gazza's answer that both questions are yes (at least the first one for sure). I always like his posts and trust him. Hope he is right, and these treasures will reach the fans.

Thanks, Frank - well, the vasty majority of shows that the Stones have done in the last 40 years would have been recorded and (unless theyve been destroying tapes) would exist as a soundboard, even if its only in a raw, unmixed form.
As for the '73 video footage, have read a few times that it was filmed, so unless the tapes are unusable through decay, I cant imagine why theyd have thrown it out. They have a warehouse in London that stores all this stuff.
