bv modern Bill German

As i was reading the thread about the fans required for the oofficial new videos, i thought that maybe, our great bv is kind of "modern" or "nowadays Bill German", always with first hand information, direct line with the inner circle, always being able some way or the other to get in the club shows, etc.

How close are you from the Stones? Please bv, give us a glimmer...

Bill German isn't dead. He's just resting.

Why has BG been so silent...that book of his was a great read for fans but I doubt it helped his cause with the inner circle, like say Jane Rose...

As for BV, read his ordeal on getting tickets for the Trabendo, it doesn't look like he had any insider info, he did know there was a show in Paris on the 25th though if not he would have not flown in. Now the inner circle is asking him for a favor for these fan things...and they couldn't give him an invite a few days ago ?! There sure are a lot of weird things going on around the Stones...but we knew that from Bill German's book ;-)

BV's site has effectively replaced the Rolling Stones fanclub (remember the newsletters back in the early 80s??), and has done so FOR FREE. For those in the know, there is IORR, Shidoobee and Rocksoff. IORR being the home for those who know about it. Its not like he advertises or anything. =)

I am sure he has connections into camp, or at the least has folks who contact him when relevant. HOWEVER, even if he has any direct connections, know that he probably can't reveal anything.

I have the same feeling of "thank god we have bv and iorr" for news and everything that i think existed in BillĀ“s era.

By the way, you think Bill is still a real hard core fan?

that's the first giveaway. if it's your site, it's obvious and doesn't need constant reminding.

The job made by Bv is beyond any member of the band could expect. His efforts amaze me. And his generosity.

backstreetboy, what is your source for "totally not true?"

StonesTod's words brought tears to my eyes. He knows what he's talking about.

Since BV seems to be in the inside now,maybe he can rely our message to the powers that be,that they are nothing more than a bunch of greedy bastards..(but l highly doubt he will)..confused smiley
