I wonder where all those people who claimed that Jagger had planned the whole tour specifically as punishment for Richards?
Sorry proudmary, but I lost your logic here.
By the way, what is your take on this Taylor thing? I recall not hearing it. Not a bad thing from a Jaggerian point of view, huh?
- Doxa
I honestly do not understand how can there be a controversy over Taylor participation - this is pure joy and delight. More - better! Sway is one of my all time favorite songs, I hope they did it justice.
concerning what I say about "punishment" - there was a long discussion how Mick brings guests only to punish and humiliate Richards - and if you do not believe you can check Anaheim-2 May 18 thread

Max, with respect, I think you should respect a bit more other people's opinions. Or at least try to listen them (you clearly not seeing the point in recent Taylor reneissance - it has nothing to do with Ronnie.) You are turning to be the most negative poster in this site with your personal "anti-Taylorite" campaign, and you are not like that by constitution. I hope you could carry on more your positivist and cheerfull side, in which you are great.

And only in opinion of someone (the typical self proclaimed Tyaylorite) who agrees with the bashing of Ronnie Wood would call me the most negative person on this site. Someone who agrees that it is ok to non stop bash Ronnie Wood, and the albums he played on, does not view that bashing as negative, because they agree with it and think it is oK... where I see it as negative as it gets.

I don't think there is one Stones fan who would see last night's set list and Taylor involvement as anything other than a huge success. Forget the Taylor V Ronnie arguments, they are irrelevant. Ronnie doesn't have a big ego and is happy to play along with anyone, Taylor just loves being in the band again and Keith is happy to lay that backing down. All is good and we should all focus on keeping the momentum going in terms of Taylor playing on at least three songs.
Personally, I'd be happy to lose the special guest slot completely and have Taylor play instead. I don't believe there are any Stones fans out there who want it any other way.

Ronnie Wood himself is a huge fan of Mick Taylor.I am absolutely rapt for all the Taylor fans that were at the gig.I reckon I would have started levitating if I was there!

Mick Taylor certainly has more talent to (naturally and without much practice) play the parts he is playing than any guest they could get. Having only Mick Taylor would cut back on guests not getting the words or lead parts right.
I agree with dump all out side guest, let Taylor fill that part.
PS
That doesnt change my opinion that Katy did great....
but its time for only Taylor... and I bet Lwren agrees that too

I can read rather well, and I can see you are not against Taylor (even though you have thrown some under the belt remarks about the man himself lately), but against Taylorites - some fellow fans who think unlike you do. There is a difference there, and I think you are on your way to make a new record here in bashing and name-calling other contributors. Can't you see it yourself?
There is not one right way to dig the Stones, and each of us have opinions of our own.

I answered a query above about not understanding the controversy, I explained it, if you dont agree, then I dont know what to say.
As I said, what someone percieves as negative depends on how one feels. If one hates Ronnie Wood and what he has played on, then when someone else starts bashing on him and saying he/it sucks, for the 5000th time, then one may still not percieve that as negative, but I do... and it took years of reading this anti Ronnie crap to finally start calling it the crap it is.... and if you call me saying it is crap negative.... well, then there it is.
The constant bashing of Ron Wood serves no purpose, and after 5000 times it gets old, so here we are.

I do take a dim view of quitters in this world because I despise the typical quitter attitude, no matter the situation. I get sick of self-entitiled quiter who quit and walk away and then dreams it is ok to stroll back in later and pick right up where they left off, without even pondering where the situation would be if everyone had quit when the quitter quit.... there would be nothing left to come back to.
The people who dDID NOT quit are the real heros, they are the ones who held it all together when the quitter quit, and left it up to others to do the job they couldnt.
I love all the albums Brian was on. I love all the Stones albums Taylor was on. I love all the Stones albums Wood was on. I love The Stones and I have the mental capacity to process all of them. I can love all them, but it seems the self called Taylorites can not....

I don't think I understand the point you're trying to make here. Do you think you could repeat it just once more so I understand? I need to be told the same thing 60 times before it sinks in. I think you're only up to 59.....thanks

Let's bring the Taylorites and the Wood-ists together with a song performed by the guys themselves - bury that @#$%& hatchet!
PS! And don't you dare start arguing about who is playing the meanest guitar on this one

I love that tune... and I am not even sure if it is jazz or fusion or rock or what... but it is great. Thanks DPM...
...and I would bury the hatchet but I belong to no group... ite or ist.... I am just a Stones fan. I love the great songs on every album, and try to skip over the few duds on each album.... every Stones album from 1962 to 2013.... and counting.
