"I'm not writing for them right now," says Richards, who has been working on a solo project "reminiscent of early Chess records." "I'm cutting my own stuff with [producer and drummer] Steve Jordan," he says. "There's no point in writing for the Stones until I know that Mick Jagger's in. He could have every song I've ever written. They're all for him. If he doesn't like them – or if he poo-poos them – I take them somewhere else."
vs
Mick has told how he had been jamming with Charlie recently, and even written songs for the band.
He said: 'I have been writing a lot for the Stones. I mean, when I write, I go, 'Yeah, that could be a good Stones tune'.
'I did some sessions with Charlie recently where I just played some songs I'd written, and of course I wrote more when he was there.
'I'd start making them up, so that was good fun, so we had a really good time doing that.'

i tend to side with proudmary and doxa on this..
i think keith is very ill advised to try to blackmail mick into a tour...are things that deteriorated that he can't just call mick on the phone like a man and talk about it? its very odd behavior.
of course i'd love for taylor and wyman to be there (dream come true) but it just seems insane to throw that out there in such a flippant manner and in the current context.. i do hope it happens
keith is acting like a bozo.

When will it dawn on you guys that this is a well-crafted PR-thing?
A rather dense comment from you...I would have given you more credit.
I don't think MJ would have come up, or went along with the 'Let's call me Brenda and label me with a tiny todger' thing, as 'well-crafted PR'. His whole persona is that of a lady killer...that just would not have been the plan.
To even suggest that is incredibly dense. KR is an idiot, and is now trying to make amends, and MJ is maneuvering through this incredibly well, and making KR suffer a bit along the way. All will be good again in 2012...where there is smoke there is fire, and I'm choking on all the smoke from the last 2 weeks.

An idiot? You may say a lot about Keith, but he's no idiot.
I'm not suggesting that the book was PR for the tour. However, I'm certain of the books impact on Mick and Keith's relationship means ZERO for the Stones' future. Why should it mean anything?
Both Mick and Keith are masters when it comes to handling the press - don't forget that.
If keith wanted to make amends for anything, he would have done something else. What the drama queens on this board tend to forget is the fact that Mick and Keith have met several times after this book was published. If there was something to mend, it would have happened on one of these occasions.
Now it's all about building the buzz, hopefully for a new Stones tour.

Don't forget the Shows in July in London, SecondSet. You have been so convincing that we just have scored flights and rooms just in case... Springsteen on the 14th would do, but!
Ha, I wouldn't make any non-refundable purchases based on my guessing. But I have rooms booked as well.

There sis nver a done deal with the stones until the trucks arrive at the venue.
Also, Keith may not be an idiot but he ain't not genius neither. Master of the PR? Master of his domain for sure but not PR. Jane Rose is the master of Keith PR and always cleaning up after him. I find it hard to believe that Jagger would just jump when Keith calls. After what I saw on ABB, I think Jagger, as someone else said on this board last week, that he wants to make sure Keith and Ronnie are ready to play and they are serious. I did not see every show, but I saw plenty and I was close enough to witness that Charlie and Mick with the help of the backline were holding the ship together. Ronnie and Keith were very sporadic and at times dreadfully off the mark. Keith played one intro for a song while the band played another, Ronnie destroyed a couple of songs with bum notes and Keith blew the intro on Brown Sugar at two shows I saw. Don't get me started on Keith's wandering across the stage a few nights looking confused and out of place. This is the guy that played most of the 1970's completely fried and sounded amazing yet the fingers and the coconut may have caught up with him.
If I were Jagger I would want to have a little proof that all could function on stage.

In theory, anything they release now should not matter financially since they've made gazillions from touring and hardly anything, compared to touring, from record sales. So strictly in that sense it's about the art with these archive releases - it's all they have now - and it's up to UMe to make what money they can. It's out of the Stones' hands because it doesn't need to be in their hands.
