KR is currently rehearsing new material with his other band, the X-Pensive Winos. "I hardly played at all for two years," he revealed. "I'm sort of basically recovering from the book, and this is my therapy at the moment. In the process of doing it, my chops are coming back."

That's not the official Keith, but if it's true - it sounds great

Judging from his appearence with Johnny Depp he needs quite a lot of hard work to get his chops back.

OK, let's hope she's right.

Wasn't that said back in the spring?

I agree with you.

So, if that quote is correct, Keith has admitted to needing practice to get his chops "back". What is your opinion adding to the conversation? Didn't Keith just say that?

Also, the video with Depp is hardly proof that Keith is either playing well or poorly. The band itself is absolutely pedestrian and Depp clearly isn't on the same page with Keith and the other guitarist on the progression, and doesn't plan on joining them anytime soon. Also, it's supposed to be a Depp Event as opposed to a Keith Event, so Depp's guitar is unfortunately way up in the mix to show his fans that he can play.

But, again, Keith said he needs to practice. What the hell does your "quite a bit of hard work" add to his statement? I mean, he's Keith Richards admitting he needs some work right now, who the hell are you?

I'm thinking maybe Mick told Keith at their meeting last month that he would have to get his chops together if he wants the Stones to tour next year?

i don't remember vermonters being so confrontational; is there a new breed there now?

thanks for holding all those very relevant points up to the light for the people -
plainly not everyone noticed 'em [passing popcorn to vermontoffender]

Why do these sites just hash the same quotes over and over month after month and act like it's new?

Your name seems to be your program "Offender".

"quite a bit of hard work" means he was playing pretty lousy in this vid.

Oh sure, Mick would tell Keith to get his chops together if he wants to tour next year with the Stones. I'm sure that's how Mick talks to Keith.
