You can get them in liquor stores here in NZ, walked into one to pick up some drinks on Saturday night and Brown Sugar was blaring. Thought it was strange for a live version to be playing then I remembered the set. They had it on display, price was $160 or something I think. Apparently Akroyd had been into the store earlier in the week to promote the vodka. The price was a bit too much for me and I couldn't justify spending that much for what it was.

Fill the empty bottle with Cranberry Juice afterwards. Looks great on a bookshelf or dashboard.

Didn't think of that--I just refilled mine with cheaper vodka!

Saw this in Selfridges yesterday going for £120 so tempted, but there must be cheaper prices?

If you're in the UK, it's 44 GBP on Amazon.

Is this product planned to be on going,
or was it a short time limited offering?

I mean, are they still making the specail packaging,
or is what is being offered now the end of the run?

Just so's we're all clear, the Skull vodka with the Stones packaging is a special edition, I'm not sure if they've discontinued, and it's way more expensive.

It's also not what Aquamarine is referring to:

PS...here is a link to the Stones version...it's 84 GBP

dunno...i'm watching ancient aliens right now though, and it's ironically an episode on crystal skull mythology. I'll let you know if there is a segment on the stones.

Sorry, odean73, I was just referring to the skull bottle of vodka (as per thread title), not the whole Stones package. That explains the disparity in pricing. Though on the bright side, it's still cheaper on Amazon!


Apparently we're not supposed to think of it as a skull, btw, it's a head. So they say on their site.

No problem, i did see it on Amazon for around £80.

Thanks for all the info.

Looks like something the Grateful Dead could cash in on.

Anyone prefer Grey Goose over this?

Not sure if this was covered but a box showed up on local TV as a nice christmas gift. Seems Dan ,our "wild and crazy guy" leveraged his Stones connection from SARs into a small partnership.


[www.google.ca]

I can only say good for Dan, he did something right with somebody, probably many things right with many people.

I got a ride from an owner of a limo company from Calgary to Lake Louise, many great stories he told. Dan he says is very real, even tipped him with an appology for putting up with his wife who evidentaly is a handfull.

Where are the songs pulled from?

Finally opened the vodka and listened to the CD's. There's some great live recordings or maybe it's the vodka. Miss You and Under My Thumb really stand out.

I mean, its all previous live stuff. Its just a compilation of Stones live albums over the last 40 years.

Congrats! Enjoy your gem!

It's good expect for the somewhat bizarre choice of the butchered rocks off from live licks I don't see how anyone could put this on a comp
