This special guests crap is so offensive. The fact that such a legendary band would stupe to this is an offense to everybody that followed them from the beginnning. I am ashamed to be a fan for more than 45 years,THEY @#$%& BLEW IT! God, what a waste. Mick Taylor comes back (basically to cover for a geriatric, worthless Keith Richards) and he plays two songs a night? WTF? We get people from "American Idol"? Is a POS live duets album coming out at Christmas? The fact the that such a revoulionary group of musicians went out like this is so heartbreaking....FLAME ME ALL YOU WANT BUT THIS BAND MEANT THE WORLD TO ME AND THEY CRASHED AND BURNED IN FRONT OF US - WHEN THEY COULD HAVE GONE OUT SO GRACWFULLY...Truly a let down....
All these "longtime" "fans" ho are rooting for this to be THE san song for the boys are making me ill.
THEY are still an active band.
Even speaking publicly about a potential new album in the fall followed by yet another tour. Jeezus.
Do you mind if they continue to build audiences and have special guest appearances
the SAME ay they have for DECADES???
It's ONE @#$%& song.
I, also a longtime fan, rather enjoy hearing and seeing the young popular artists
(and hot chicks) play and sing with the band.
Get over yourselves.
WHAT WAS NOT TO LIKE ABOUT THE DUET WITH TAYLOR??
BEAUTIFUL SONG, DONE BEAUTIFULLY BY BOTH MICK AND TAYLOR.
ALSO FUN TO SEE KEITH TAKE A SEAT AND PLAY.
I say those that don't appreciate and respect the bands right to build audiences and play with whomever they please, weren't really "FANS" to begin with.

Don't apologize. There were many other spelling errors as you doubtless know. Some would find it disgtusting, but I don't mind. It's sort of like having Popeye posting on the board.

Isn't that stretching it a bit...
Hmmmmmm..... someone has not been paying attention, please try to keep up.
Releasing new songs, playing arenas, touring, having fun = active band

Keith is the entire reason we go to the Stones and essentially what you are listening to at a Stones concert

"truly disgusting" to describe the guests is exaggerating things just a bit. It's not like Taylor Swift is a neo-nazi.
They tend to harmonize with white singers only.Quote

Probably. 43,552,639 Taylor Swift facebook "friends" can't be wrong.

I completely agree with the original poster. I don't understand the need for special guests in the first place. Maybe once on a tour if they decide they want to share the stage for a special reason. Maybe with someone that inspired them (Bo Diddley, Chuck Berry etc.) as a thanks for the inspiration. Maybe even with one of their contemporaries who possesses a legacy that will also be remembered in popular music (Springsteen, Bowie, Dylan etc.) but to night after night drag up and parade around the likes of Carrie Underwood is just embarrassing. I actually had to google that name to even find out who she was. To my horror I learned that the world's greatest rock and roll band are finished. Mick is now reduced to sharing the stage with tarty pop clones and talent show winners. These people don't know who he is, don't bring anything musical to the event and certainly don't bring a fanbase that will buy Stones albums in the future. If I ever meet Keith, so called Mr. Rock and Roll and heart of the band, I'm going to tell him that Taylor Swift blew him off the stage. They've chosen to end their careers as props behind flash in the pan worthless celebrities. What a shame!

I wonder how much of the guest bitching is done by people going to the actual concerts. When you're at the show(Crow at mine) the guest spot goes by so fast it's almost like it never happened. Certain online folk tend to take relatively unimportant stuff during shows and blow them up into something insane. Being at the actual shows, it's just one of a hundred things going on at once.

So the exaggerated outrage rolls on. As many have pointed out ... it is just one song. Which is still a Rolling Stones song (at least with the women which cause this outrage). Which is usually no worse than if they had done it without the guest. And provides some nice eye candy. Some might argue it is better than getting some old blues cat to rehash some boring standard blues cover.
By the way, my preference would absolutely be for no guests. And I don't own any music by the female guests, nor will I ever go and buy their music ... so I am not a fan of them at all.
