haven't seen him in awhile myself...but reports are that he's doing much better than he was a few years back when he was on serious pain meds for hip replacements that went awry....he certainly played much better on his latest record than he did on previous one...

I think I caught one of those shows you're talking about.
He was helped onto the stage and never moved a step the entire show.
I thought he played OK then, but I couldn't help but worry about the man.

Looks and sounds ok to me.

Wow! I would have loved to hear his take on Gimme Shelter.
Winter does the all time best cover of Let it Bleed, and Stray Cat Blues. Incredible!
I recently read a long and interesting interview with Winter about his health issues and how he is under new management and feeling much better. The article also mentions how his previous manager pretty much ripped him off and encouraged him to stay on methadone, which gave the manager more control over Johnny. So it seems he has come out of his haze and doing much better. I would go see him in a second!

Only about a 7-hour drive for you, or a couple of hours on Southwest.
