Thanks, Saturn. I sometimes feel like I'm speaking Chinese here....I don't get why the majority of Stones fans aren't totally pissed at Keith for creating this situation in the first place. I really do want to just let it go....it is tiring.

I do agree with you, Mickschix, and I have written at length about it. But as I said in a related thread yesterday, if you like someone, you have to accept the whole package, not pick and choose the bits you like and discard the rest.

But that is something Keith obviously has a problem with. He doesn´t like the whole package Mick, he only likes what he wants to like and he despises the rest, that part of Mick´s character that is contrary to his own. Keith always seemd narrow minded in this respect, in my opinion.

I meant, it's US who have to accept the whole package. Keith is a large part of the RS, and as fans of the group, we have to accept what he does.

I had no problems with KR - I took his drug addiction, alcoholism, stupid pirate pose, the constant assaults on Jagger. The music and the Rolling Stones were more important. This was part of his image and the image of the band. But with this book, Richards allowed himself to sell this image.
He is not a fool, and he knew what he was doing - but the temptation was too great, a check too big to pass up. The editor demanded details about Mick's anatomy and sexual life - please, you get it. In addition, since the book was not written by Richards himself, but by another person (James Fox), the usual assaults on Jagger at his hands got quite a different character. There is nothing friendly or humorous here.
Mick Jagger is no longer the biggest star in show business, and there are many who want to kick him in the balls.
It's a shame that the first in the queue is Keith Richards
P.S. and after all this, now Richards is making his solo album.

"I can't help but think that Jane Rose encouraging him to air dirty laundry about Mick in interviews starting in 1986 and growing exponentially in the 25 years since did the band a great deal of damage".
Spot on

Yeah, I think he went from his mom, to Anita, to Jane Rose, three very powerful tough women in his life.
I think for all the talk, (the blade, gimme a break), the women exercise the control over his life and lead him to do the things he does. A little oversimplistic I'll acknowledge, but I'll bet there is a lot of truth to this.
