Thanks revvy... pretty cool... but kind of sad.

Very sad, indeed. Thinking of Ray Davies' tragic song of divorce, "Property" from The Kinks in 1983:

"Now that it's all over, now that you and I are free
Now there's nothing left except the bit of property
Started off with nothing, started off just you and me
Now that it's all over you can keep the property

And all the little gifts we thought we'd throw away
The useless souvenirs bought on a holiday
We put them on a shelf, now they're collecting dust
We never needed them, but they outlasted us"

Reading between the lines, it seems clear that all this stuff was in Jo's
possession after the (quicky) divorce. In other words, she got this particular
house and its contents (without a time-consuming inventory and valuation ever being
done), and so its Jo that's running this liquidation. I don't think Ronnie has
anything to do with it. Yes, he could probably fight to have his name taken off
the sale, but I don't think he really minds Jo making a few extra bucks this way.

In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if Ronnie had the right of first refusal, at
fair market value, and purchased a few near and dear items back from Jo prior
to this auction catalogue being put together.

sorry, Coke. I even looked before posting, but obviously not good enough.
I can't believe your post didnt get more replies, and slipped down the list
so fast. hopefully bv will fold my thread into yours.

This won't win me any friends here, but looking through all those possessions makes me think how out of touch MOST rock stars are with their fans. Yes, they work hard in the beginning (not hard compared to a construction worker) but when they reach this stage of wealth and do you really think they give a shit about rock and roll? About taking creative risks? It's no wonder the Stones have largely sucked since 1981. Insulated by country estates and bad decor.

We need another Sex Pistols. We mean it, MAN.

Some pretty cool Stones stuff starts on page 150.

If this is not Ronnie doing this auction, then I wonder... ah...
I dont know... none of my business... still feels pretty sad.


Anyway... Cool Stones stuff starts on page 150.

There's even the '55 Strat he's played for years....

It's my understanding that all of these items are Jo's.

Some really neat stuff, might have to bid on a lot or two.

hmmmm interesting, but I wouldn't call it pervy! I mean they arent selling used underwear are they?

What does that have to do with anything? Keep on dreaming...

I thought "Perv On This" was Revvy's play on "Slide On This." The "Perv" part being the fact that all of us are looking at someone else's belongings. Whether legitimately auctioned or not, it does feel a bit like we're peeping tom's. Mind you that painting of Jo nude with a penis drawn on always made me feel a bit creepy, too. I think it was also in THE WORKS.

That´s not one of his more used strats on stage, and it´s not one of his hardtails. I think i´ve never seen him play that one live, but i might be wrong.

Wow he had Voodoo Brew. (page 175)

I am surprised at the amount of cool Stones swag he collected (but left behind).

I hope the Stones stop the sale of their property. One could say Jo was really bad for Ronnie and she continues to @#$%& with him. She had her luxury now she should chill.

Far cheaper than anywhere else, Thanks Jo, I will bid on it

HMN

I am eye balling the shirts, but I dont think I will bid,
out of respect for Ronnie (dumb I know, but it is what it is)

I just think it is cool he collected these things too
He probably got it all free, but at least he got it

Yeah thought of you HM when I saw the STU book

Only 1000 printed ...950 for sale with the other 50 going
to those who contributed to the book ... thus the certificate on left I guess..

Hope ya score it Honest Man ....

If its Ronnie selling his things, that doesn't bode well for a future tour.

I don't get that argument. He would need a tour to make money.

Aaaaah, Jo is even selling bootlegs? Good to know!

The price range on some of the Stones swag is interesting. You can tell it was valued by an estate auction appraiser. A few of the items they probably feel is junk, I would assume would sell at a much higher bid. At least to a RS fan.

Although there is some uber expensive stuff, all the flatware is silver plate instead of sterling. How tacky.
