Given that Mr Watts is usually one of the best dressed gentlemen in showbusiness, I was quite surprised to see that he wears two different shoes on the "final bow"-picture on IORR's starting page.

I hope it's just a drumming-issue (better control of the Hi Hat maybe?) and not a sign of things to come...;-)

He has got two different feet so why not wearing two different shoes then?

Right you are.

I should have said "two different models of shoes" or whatever...English is not my first language, so pardon me...

If you look again I think it's just the lighting.

.... yeah just the glow of the lighting.....

So he can tell his right from his left or his left from his right.

S**t happens sometimes.

I bet Charlie looked down during "It's Only Rock n Roll" and thought "My word!".

Probably something to do with his right foot kicking the pedal all night. He needs a performance enhancing shoe. The other is for agility on the HiHat.

Because if he wore the same one he would fall over.

I'm working on a book about The Rolling Stones choice of footwear through the years based on many in depth interviews with people who know people that once saw the rolling stones. ;-)

BTW your explanation could make sense from a drummer's point of view but I think in this case it's just a matter of lightreflection.

Left shoe shuffle, right shoe muffle.

You should see his underwear! It's two stitched together. The front is different than the back. Quite strange.

Light reflection on the left shoe...

Because he has two different feet?

He lost one in the back room with Katy Perry.

that's kinda cute...now cut it out. we're supposed to hate each other....

should all questions about that picture be posted in this topic, or should there be a new topic for each?

because i'm wondering what the heck mick taylor has in his left pocket.

Well why in the hell does he have two different sets of lights for each shoe?!

That's just INSANE!

if you actually showed me the shoes i could tell you if it was drumming reasons or possibly medical reasons

Look the same to me-

It's the salesman's fault-

What? You mean, lightning struck his foot? Where? When? Certainly an outdoor concert!

i remember reading in an interview somewhere that during the EOMS sessions Charlie mis-heard the lyrics to SV and instead of scraping the shit right off his shoes he scraped the shit off of his right shoe. Been that way ever since. Unless he's lying. Charlie wouldn't lie, would he?
