Tell Me :
Talk
The Stones will always have a special place in my heart, but you are correct, it is over, barring some sort of miracle. Getting the Sons of the Beatles to form a band is also going to take a miracle. At my age I just don't have the energy to divide my time between the two.
Which one is The Watchman? I mean Watchwoman.
Only about 42 years ago, but even unto today they cast a long shadow, a shadow that the Stones have never been able to step out from. Of course they did have their chance but it looks like that may never happen now, barring some sort of divine intervention. Maybe Ronnie is the Angel that can bring it all together?

No, I need more than foreplay.
I like "The Watchcrow" better.
Well mice, I can honestly say that I left it all on the field of battle. I fought hard and long for the Stones (took a lot of heat for doing so by so called hardcore fans) but I am not a young man. Either are the Stones. All good things must come to an end.
The good news is that you will be getting more in the way of archives in the years to come. The bad news is, that they are done touring and making new music.
Well, the Stones are far from being losers, but it appears they will always be in the shadow of the Beatles. Of course if they were to do the impossible..........
Thirty years from now they will be calling him Sir James.
Thanks, but I have done my part. It is now up to the Stones. I learned a long time ago that a good man must know his limitations.
There is definitely some truth in your words. No good in getting up after the count has reached ten.
No doubt that will continue.
You are doing fine, there are more things in life than the Rolling Stones.
Thanks, mate, I suppose if Keith were to step in, I might just re-consider.
Sounds like some sort of baseball talk. Nothing more boring than the game of baseball, except for talking about the game of baseball.
Thanks, but I don't plan to stop enjoying the Stones on DVD.
No, he just has a life outside of the Stones.
It is kind of "catchy" isn't it.
An active musician.
Thanks, but I am spent.
Well, thank God I won't be attending any of their parties.
Hansie, sorry to let you down. Not sure even a "session" with Oddball would revive me at this point. The best to you, mate. Maybe there is a miracle out there after all, only time will tell.
Old enough to know when something is over.
Well, you might say the Beatles and the Stones are the Pepsi and Coca Cola of rock. Two giants. It appears that the Stones will always get "second mention" to the Beatles, but that's not bad, not bad at all. In fact, it's quite good.
Well, wait no more.
Talk about your favorite band.

Well, it does seem that the sons of the Beatles is now at least a remote possibility. But surely you could follow them and the Stones. You don't have to make the choice.
But you are right about the Stones. I think the game is over and all the 2013 talk is just wishful thinking. Any noises from the Stones are just about denying that it's over.

I have decided that I am much more interested in following the solo careers of Paul, Ringo, and James, then waiting around for the Stones to throw a few bones our way.
I have invested a lot of time and energy posting here with the hopes of motivating the Stones to give themselves and their fans what they both so richly deserve, a rousing finish to their careers. Just one problem. They do not appear to be interested. Maybe that reflects the majority of their fan base, I don't know. But, what I do know is, that it is time for me to "get back" get back to where I once belonged.

You just got three excellent releases from your favorite band during the last few months - there are three more to come.
That's not enough for you???
No, I need more than foreplay.

>< Another one bites the dust. Some people just aint got no stamina. Hell there is more happening Stones wise at the moment than in the last few years, and he quits! Oh well enjoy following the Beatles family I'm sure they will listen to you

Yeah, nothing going on in the Beatles camp. They even gave up on producing DLC for Beatles Rock Band. Which is a shame because I love that game. But nothing has happened Beatles-wise since '09. I would love some more rarities or something to be released, but I'm not holding my breath.
It's all about the Stones Archive Series, and whatever surprises they have planned. It's an exciting time to be a Stones fan. The most exciting time I can remember in my time as a fan. Which I grant you hasn't been long. But in the early days of my fandom we got R&R Circus, a Studio Album, and a tour, all within about a year, which was the most exciting time I can remember. Until recently with the Archives, Texas '78, etc.
The good news is that you will be getting more in the way of archives in the years to come. The bad news is, that they are done touring and making new music.

You don't have to go, Stonescrow. Take a break and come back when it feels better. Sorry to let you go. You were always positive about The Stones. Positivity is needed on this forum to balance out the negativity!

The problem here is not negativity, the big problem here is that many don´t understand the difference between negativity and being realistic.
There is definitely some truth in your words. No good in getting up after the count has reached ten.

Those "shadows" you speak of only exist in your mind. "Legacies" aren't competitions. The Stones and the Beatles are both great; I prefer the Stones by a wide, wide, margin, but I recognize that preference as an opinion. I don't feel that the Stones "crush" the Beatles or that the Stones legacy casts a longer shadow because, well...those types of things are just personal constructs that have nothing to do with reality.
If you ditch the "competition" mentality, you might be able to more greatly appreciate what the Stones have given you.
Peace (for the wicked?)

Sorry you feel that you've got to leave - seems like over-reaction to me, but anyway, I hope you enjoy whatever the Beatles family has to give.
